Chapter 61: Configuring SonicWALL Global
Security Client
Security Services > Global Security Client
The SonicWALL Global Security Client combines gateway enforcement, central management,
configuration flexibility and software deployment to deliver comprehensive desktop security for
remote/mobile workers and corporate networks. It offers administrators the capability to
manage a mobile/remote user’s online access, based on corporate policies, to ensure optimal
security of the network and maximize network resources. Instant messaging, high-risk Web
sites and network file access can all be allowed or disallowed as security and productivity
concerns dictate. Different remote/mobile users can be organized into adaptable groups with
differing policies at a granular level.
SonicWALL Global Security Client delivers a low-maintenance solution to allow network
administrators to secure mobile users. Residing on the remote user’s system, the Global
Security Client automatically communicates with an organization’s SonicWALL gateway back
at the office when an individual logs in to the network. Prior to allowing network access, the
gateway administrator automatically updates the Global Security Client with the latest security
policies and software updates. No prompting or intervention is necessary by the administrator
or the remote user - it’s completely seamless and transparent.
Global Security Client protection includes the SonicWALL Distributed Security Client and the
SonicWALL Global VPN Client Enterprise combined with centrally managed security policies
via the SonicWALL Internet Security Appliance and SonicWALL’s industry-leading Distributed
Enforcement Architecture (DEA).
