HowMobileConnectWorks

Modernbusinesspracticesincreasinglyrequirethatusersbeabletoaccessanynetworkresource(files,internal

websites,etc.),anytime,anywhere.Atthesametime,ensuringthesecurityoftheseresourcesisaconstant

struggle.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MacdevicesliketheMacBookAirandMacBookPro.Andyet,

Macsareincreasinglysubjecttosecurityattacks.Furthermore,remoteMacuserscanoftenuseinsecure,

TogetstartedwithSonicWallMobileConnect:

1InstallSonicWallMobileConnectfromtheMacAppStore.

2EnsurethattheFirewallorSMA100Series/SRAappliancebeingusedbyMobileConnectisconnected
