Apparatus and accompanying methods for providing, through a centralized server site, a secure, cost-effective, web-enabled, integrated virtual office environment remotely accessible through a network-connected web browser

摘要: Apparatus and accompanying methods for use therein implementing an integrated, virtual office user environment, through server(s), which a remotely stationed can access typical network-based applications, including e-mail, file sharing hosted thin-client programs, located network, e.g., WAN, connected web browser. Specifically, front end, namely service enablement platform (SEP), to one or more servers on LAN is both the WAN acts as bridge between his(her) applications protocol translator enable bi-directional, web-based, real-time communication occur browser each such application. The SEP translates input originating from into application-specific protocols applies result corresponding application server.
