How is Forefront Unified Access Gateway different from the Forefront Threat Management Gateway (TMG)? Why should I use UAG for application publishing rather than TMG?
A. Forefront Threat Management Gateway is a comprehensive, secure Web gateway that helps protect employees from Web-based threats. It provides multiple layers of continuously updated protections, including URL filtering, antimalware inspection, and intrusion prevention. These technologies are integrated with core network protection features, to create a unified, easy-to-manage gateway that reduces the cost and complexity of Web security. Forefront UAG, on the other hand, delivers secure, anywhere access to messaging, collaboration, and other resources, increasing productivity while maintaining compliance with policy. Integrating a deep understanding of the applications published, the state of health of the devices being used to gain access, and the user’s identity—UAG enforces granular access controls and policies to deliver comprehensive remote access, ensure security, and reduce management costs and complexity.
