Multi-pronged Protection
The SonicWALL Global Security Client extends the boundaries of security by protecting the corporate network and remote/mobile workers from malicious attacks that occur over the Internet.
Enhanced Application Security
The SonicWALL Global Security Client provides an additional layer of security by protecting businesses against legal liabilities that occur when employees accidentally or intentionally run applications from the Internet that have been designated as "untrusted" by the network administrator.
Policy Management
The SonicWALL Global Security Client enables network administrators to create, distribute and manage global security policies for remote and mobile users from a central location. Once a new policy has been created, it seamlessly distributed to every system on the network with no end-user interaction required. Configuration options include specifying the minimum application version, policy levels and behavior for clients not in compliance.
Gateway Enforcement
The SonicWALL Global Security Client is enforced at the gateway, ensuring the end-user's system is in compliance before access to network resources is granted. Users without the Global Security Client installed on their system are redirected to a download site where they must install the client before being granted access.
Scalable Architecture
The SonicWALL Global Security Client features a unique client/gateway enforcement architecture that delivers comprehensive security, scaling from individual telecommuters and mobile workers up to mobile, more diverse deployments with a larger mobile workforce.
Low Total Cost of Ownership
The SonicWALL Global Security Client addresses the needs of companies looking to deploy comprehensive desktop security to remote/mobile workers and corporate networks while delivering a lower total cost of ownership through automated policy enforcement and software distribution at the gateway.
Easy-to-Use Local Interface
The SonicWALL Global Security Client includes an intuitive user interface that seamlessly integrates multiple applications and presents the administrator with a status page and optional configuration functionality, offering enhanced ease-of-use.
Application Reporting
The SonicWALL Global Security Client includes application reporting to provide network administrators with data on the status of the application as well as the ability to monitor for unusual activities and perform troubleshooting.
