Mobile Connect establishes a Secure Socket Layer Virtual Private Network (SSL VPN) connection to private networks that are protected by Dell SonicWALL security appliances. The SonicWALL Mobile Connect app for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad provides secure, mobile access to sensitive network resources. It is therefore a challenge to provide secure, mobile access while still guarding against the inherent security risks of using mobile devices. Furthermore, mobile devices often use insecure, untrusted, public wi-fi hotspots to connect to the Internet. And yet, mobile devices are increasingly subject to security attacks. While most users are aware that they must take care to protect computers from network security risks, this security awareness does not always extend to mobile devices like the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. At the same time, ensuring the security of these resources is a constant struggle. Modern business practices increasingly require that users be able to access any network resource (files, internal websites, etc.), anytime, anywhere. SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Apple iOS is an app for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad that enables secure, mobile connections to private networks protected by Dell SonicWALL security appliances.
