How does mobile access affect the workplace?

The proliferation of mobile devices in the workplace has increased the demand for secure access to mission- critical applications, data and resources. Granting that access offers important productivity benefits to the organization, but introduces significant risks as well. For example, an unauthorized person might access company resources using a lost or stolen device; an employee’s mobile device might act as a conduit to infect the network with malware; or corporate data might be intercepted over third-party wireless networks. Also, loss of business data stored on devices can occur if rogue personal apps or unauthorized users gain access to that data. Securing these devices is becoming increasingly difficult, as organizations may no longer influence device selection or control device management. Organizations must implement solutions that safeguard access to ensure only authorized users and devices that meet security policy are granted network access and that company data in-flight and at rest on the device are secure. Unfortunately, this often involves complex multi-box solutions from multiple vendors and adds significantly to the total cost of ownership behind providing mobile access. Organizations are looking for easy-to-use, cost- effective and secure mobile access solutions that address the needs of their increasingly mobile workforces. The Dell™SonicWALL Secure Remote Access (SRA) Series provides mobile and remote workers using smartphones, tablets or laptops —whether managed or unmanaged BYOD —with fast, easy, policy-enforced access to mission- critical applications, data and resources without compromising security. For mobile devices, the solution includes the intuitive SonicWALL Mobile Connect™

What is context aware authentication?

Context-aware authentication Best-in-class, context-aware authentication grants access only to trusted devices and authorized users. Mobile devices are interrogated for essential security information such as jailbreak or root status, device ID, certificate status and OS versions prior to granting access. Laptops and PCs are also interrogated for the presence or absence of security software, client certificates, and device ID. Devices that do not meet policy requirements are not allowed network access and the user is notified of non-compliance. Protection of data at rest on mobile devices Authenticated Mobile Connect users can securely browse and view allowed intranet file shares and files from within the Mobile Connect app. Administrators can establish and enforce mobile application management policy for the Mobile Connect app to control whether files viewed can be opened in other apps (iOS7 only), copied to the clipboard, printed or cached securely within the Mobile Connect app. For iOS7 devices, this allows administrators to isolate business data from personal data stored on the device and reduces the risk of data loss. In addition, if the user’s credentials are revoked, content stored in the Mobile Connect app is locked and can no longer be accessed or viewed.
