Ericom Shield is a secure browser your users won’t know they’re using

A while back, Ericom revealed a new product called Ericom Shield, and while at a glance it may appear to be something akin to Citrix Secure Browser (a mistake we made in a Friday Notebook), it’s actually an entirely new product that isn’t just reassembling Ericom’s desktop virtualization products in a new form factor. In fact, the only part that ties it to desktop virtualization is the fact that it leverages the same HTML5 remoting bits as AccessNow. Everything else is completely new, and, at the risk of getting ahead of myself, pretty cool.
