Beta testers needed: Wireless encryption over SSL VPN

Hello,

I need a few brave souls to test our windows software installers and VPN server. I want to get a load onto this system and see what happens. It should be fairly locked down and secured at this point, but ethical hacking is encouraged. I still have some log parsing to work on, so please only attack our stuff and not outside networks. It wouldn't kill me, but it would probably piss me off if you make me track you down ;) People just using the service is my main goal right now though.

background:

We have created a service for 'road warriors' and other wireless/hostile network users. How it works is you create a encrypted SSL tunnel to our network here, and we route your traffic out of our network. This stops people from snooping on wireless networks and helps defend in a hostile environment such as a hotel or conference. Anyone with a mobile computer or wireless connection is the target audience.

As an upgraded option, we also can provide a dedicated IP with full routing. Imagine as you travel or your ISP's dynamic IP changes always having a dedicated public IP. This works for setting up firewall access to remote admins that travel. Anyone needing to use insecure protocols such as POP3 in a hostile environment. Putting a mail server on a static IP. Any time that you may need a static IP address, this would be a good option. This is not NAT like the normal option, which is required for some stuff too.

Also, all of these will work through a proxy. You can skip out of your work's network using their HTTP proxy and have full net access. I know, this part is going to make for a bad day for someone ;) It looks like https traffic, just a lot of it.

Right now, there is plenty of network to match most client network speeds, but I hope we can saturate the processor of this machine so we can get some working cost projections. I need users basically.

Install:

Click on the Client Install file, and hit next until it's done.
Click on the Cert Install file, and hit next.
Double click on the tray icon and watch it connect.

Install to dedicated IP:

Click on upgrade installer after installing the above.

DO NOT USE A DEDICATED IP W/O A FIREWALL. You will have direct in and out routing directly to the net, you really really want a firewall.

That's it, then you can conferm you are routing across the VPN by visiting someplace like http://ipchicken.com 209.124.62.26 is the NAT IP, and you should reconize a dedicated IP in a close block.


If this sounds interesting send me an email rlsanders at gmail.com or PM me here. Don't request a dedicated IP unless you really think you can use it and test it, I only have 6 networks assigned right now and 3 are taken for dedicated IP's. Also, these IP's are going to CHANGE after the beta when I move it to a /24 or /23 network. As for the shared IP, I have 30 certificates ready for testers.

Also, of course, there is no charge and no payment for testing.

Thanks :thumbsup:

    Also, this is leading to enterprise deployments and cross tunnel routing for location to location bridging, but don't ask for that just yet ;)

    I hope most of the people here can see where I am trying to take this part of it. Once we have the management software done to control the users and connections it will move to the next levels.
