Sam Hassani over at Brightstarr put together a couple of great articles on Exposing SharePoint over the internet through Web Access proxy (WAP) , a feature of Windows Server 2012R2.

These articles talk about WAP as a nice alternative to UAG and TMG (two security products Microsoft used to sell, but has since retired)  I haven’t followed the steps yet, but it looks like it might be a suitable fill in for CA Siteminder in some cases as well.

Part 2: http://www.brightstarr.com/sharepoint-technology-and-application-insights/securely-publishing-sharepoint-externally-using-web-application-proxy-part-2

The best part of the above articles, in my opinion, is that they really make this stuff look easy and accessible – I can’t wait to try this out!
