Public Sector

For different levels of government throughout the world, the network is a critical element in serving and protecting citizens – the fundamental mission of successful public sector organizations. From the U.S. federal government and national governments around the globe to local governmental bodies, Juniper Networks has a solid track record in support of this mission. The company's government deployments include defense, intelligence and a wide array of public agencies. Juniper's award-winning products and services help public sector organizations achieve key objectives:

  • Speed & responsiveness
  • Lowering risk
  • Reducing operational costs

Government agencies that rely on Juniper's public sector solutions can quickly adapt to user, application and business changes while having the built-in flexibility to increase innovation in their networks without driving up costs or increasing risk. Juniper products help ensure security and uptime, while risk mitigation allows more users to access applications. Meanwhile, Juniper solutions assist in reducing operational costs – now and in the future – thus helping prevent budget growth even as service levels increase.

Juniper enables governments to exploit their networks as strategic assets that allow innovation in business processes. Learn more about how Juniper Networks helps governments by selecting your sector and applications of interest (see below) and then contact Juniper Networks today.

Solutions

Key Juniper solutions to support the public sector include:

IPv6

Implementing the next-generation Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is quickly becoming a reality for most U.S. federal agencies. Juniper helps organizations achieve a smooth changeover and capture IPv6's benefits. These include better-quality service, heightened security, improved network management, and overall enhanced performance. With Juniper's support, federal agencies making the IPv6 transition gain the optimum knowledge needed to plan, implement and deploy the move while meeting their timelines.

Emergency Preparedness/Continuity of Operations

Continuity of Operations (COOP) is critical to ensure that government agencies can provide services in times of crisis. Juniper's broad expertise helps agencies understand the considerations and processes necessary to create a COOP plan. This includes developing the necessary strategies, policies, concept of operations, and systems needed to support mission-critical activities in emergency situations.

Data Center Consolidation

To reduce costs and complexity, federal government organizations are consolidating data centers to fewer sites, but IT must continue to ensure application availability and performance to all users, regardless of distance. Moreover, tomorrow's data centers must offer more than "Green IT" — but also provide increased power and bandwidth, as well as a smaller footprint. Juniper Networks products and services deliver advanced support of these goals.

Secure Collaboration

Defense, civilian, State/Local, and education/research networks must increasingly support the secure, real-time communication needs of a wide variety of users and partners. Juniper solutions allow communities of users to analyze, produce and disseminate information to support all network-based applications, from intelligence data to financial transactions, serving citizens, first responders, and war fighters in the field.

Geospatial Solutions

The integration and transport of high-volumes of data to support defense and civilian applications, across global geographies, is increasingly paramount to agency success. Juniper Networks helps users provide a common view of necessary data, imagery and information to support real-time battlefield analysis, border patrol surveillance, or other systems requiring huge amounts of data.

Software Development Kit (SDK) Solutions

Thanks to the open architecture of JUNOS software, Juniper customers and partners can develop new, specialized JUNOS applications using a powerful set of development resources, including a software development kit (SDK) that offers intelligent and secure interfaces to routing and service functions. The convergence of intelligent networks and service-oriented architecture (SOA) approaches allow systems integrators and customers to develop and deploy next generation services across their major programs.

Federal Security Compliance

In today's world, federal agencies must effectively deal with network security challenges even as they authenticate people, prepare for disasters, and audit and report on compliance. Juniper helps federal organizations achieve secure networking along with compliance. For example, Juniper supports FISMA, HSPD-20, HSPD-12 and Teleworking requirements.

Everything over IP

Juniper's Circuit-to-Packet (CTP) products provide the advanced technology and features required to reliably transport legacy TDM and other circuit-based applications across next-generation IP networks. These products deliver the field-proven flexibility, performance and reliability that federal government applications require — from those deployed by first responders to military communications.

WAN Acceleration

Juniper helps federal government organizations define and adopt a broad-based approach to WAN optimization that accelerates the widest cross section of their business applications, improves the flexibility of their delivery systems and provides the necessary monitoring and reporting to track application performance.

Applications

Topics Description
Application Acceleration Accelerate and optimize application delivery from central data centers over end-to-end connections to reduce delay and to send/receive more traffic over constrained bandwidth links.
Branch / Remote Office Ensure extended business operations at branch and remote sites by fully protecting internal systems and assuring the usability and availability of centralized applications.
Data Centers Protect government application investments and consolidate servers into fewer, larger data centers with integrated capabilities that defend, secure, extend and accelerate applications.
Remote Users Enable remote and mobile users to securely access, authenticate and then use centralized applications based on end-point host checks and approved access levels for particular locations and devices.
Security Protect classified information and computing resources with layered security functions that mitigate emergent threats and control network access from both outside and within your network.
Voice over IP Ensure that the network infrastructure is ready to support high-quality voice and video, protecting it against threats and misuse while assuring performance and availability.
VPNs and WAN Evolution Migrate to secure, low-cost, converged, wide-area networks by leveraging IP/MPLS, IPSec and SSL VPN along with platforms to accelerate applications.
Microsoft Applications The Juniper Networks Microsoft Resource Center provides demos, literature, case studies and tools for optimizing the performance of centralized Microsoft applications. Find Juniper solutions to specific issues related to Microsoft applications and protocols including: Exchange, WAFS/File Services, SharePoint and secure Microsoft applications.
