With business boundaries extending around the globe and the walls of traditional offices crumbling, network administrators need a complete security solution that protects both the corporate network and mobile users from malicious intrusions. SonicWALL has developed distributed enforcement architecture to extend corporate security to the mobile desktop through the Global Security Client. This seamless software client provides security for data transmissions and email, plus robust monitoring and management capabilities for the IT staff at the central office. Residing on the mobile user's system, the Global Security Client automatically communicates with a company's SonicWALL gateway back at headquarters each time an individual logs in to the network. Prior to allowing network access, the gateway automatically updates the Global Security Client with the latest security policies and software updates. No prompting or intervention is necessary by either IT staff or the mobile worker - the process is completely seamless. Through an easy-to-use Web-based user interface, the SonicWALL distributed enforcement architecture offers security professionals the capability to manage a mobile user's online and network access - based upon corporate policies - in order to ensure optimal security of the network and maximize network resources. Mobile workers and telecommuters can be organized into adaptable groups with differing policies at a granular level, even down to the individual IP address. The Global Security Client is a flexible, cost-effective solution for security administrators looking to extend network security and control to the mobile workforce. The SonicWALL Global Security Client requires third or fourth-generation SonicWALL VPN gateway with Firmware version 6.6 or higher or SonicOS 2.1 or higher.

SonicWALL Global Security Client, 1 Year Subscription, 25 Users Features
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 is
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 larger, more diverse deployments
with a worldwide 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 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 appliance 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.
