Over the last few months companies have been popping up who are developing software that enables a Second Life client to be deployed behind a corporate firewall. Below is a company I ran across in LinkedIn. This post is not an endorsement for D/MARK, but more to let my readers know what's on the horizon for Second Life.
*****************************
"D/MARC is our new software product which allows organisations to securely access any remote internet service through a restricted corporate firewall. Access is metered and can be limited to a single service (eg. Second Life, Youtube, social media) or multiple services can be selected. Local points of presence mean that access is always fast and data is transferrred using SSL so its completely secure.
We're now looking for 20 companies/organisations to take part in a closed beta test. There are of course no costs associated with this trial - all we ask is that participants sign an NDA and data transfer will be capped at 1gb. If you think you might be interested in taking part you can register your interest at http://www.corporationpop.co.uk/dmarc/closed-beta/.
D/MARC will be launching commercially in the Autumn."

Thanks Dom,
You're more than welcome. We're always on the lookout for how people can better utilize Second Life.
I'll pass this by my staff and see if they can check out the beta.
