The SonicWALL Mobile Connect App
[http://www.sonicwall.com/us/products/Mobile_Connect.html?utm_source=PressRelease&utm_medium 11Releases&utm_content=MobileConnect&utm_campaign1201_MobileConnectApp ]
provides
users "VPN on Demand" and encrypts traffic whenever users attempt to access protected
internal resources. Further capabilities are added when Mobile Connect
[http://www.sonicwall.com/us/products/Mobile_Connect.html?utm_source=PressRelease&utm_medium 11Releases&utm_content=MobileConnect&utm_campaign1201_MobileConnectApp ]
users
communicate through a SonicWALL firewall. Network administrators can enable Clean VPN
[http://www.sonicwall.com/us/solutions/Solutions_Clean_VPN.html?utm_source=PressRelease&utm_medium 11Releases&utm_content=CleanVPN&utm_campaign1201_MobileConnectApp ]
(SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusions Prevention scanning over VPN
connections) to afford iOS users the same level of protection as if they were on the
internal network, and ensure that communications relayed through the iOS devices are clean
of malware. Additionally, network administrators can utilize SonicWALL Application
Intelligence and Control

functionality to identify which iOS apps should receive critical bandwidth.
This assures performance for key business, education and medical applications, while
throttling down other bandwidth intensive applications not deemed important to the
enterprise or school.
"Everyone knows that iPhones and iPads are revolutionary devices that have enabled a
level of mobile productivity we haven't seen before," said Mark Bouchard, founder of
AimPoint Group, LLC. "Mobile Connect makes it simple and straightforward for enterprises
to embrace this game-changing platform by allowing millions of SonicWALL customers to
securely access corporate networks and boost their mobile productivity even further."
For internal users of iOS devices, IT administrators are already able to utilize
SonicWALL's Clean Wireless
[http://www.sonicwall.com/us/solutions/Solutions_Clean_Wireless_Deployments.html?utm_source=PressRelease&utm_medium 11Releases&utm_content=CleanWireless&utm_campaign1201_MobileConnectApp ]
(data encryption and Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion
Prevention over WLAN networks) as well as SonicWALL Content Filtering services to meet
compliance and policy requirements. Now, with the Mobile Connect App
[http://www.sonicwall.com/us/products/Mobile_Connect.html?utm_source=PressRelease&utm_medium 11Releases&utm_content=MobileConnect&utm_campaign1201_MobileConnectApp ]
, users and
organizations can be protected while traveling and accessing networks from public
hotspots.
"iPads and iPhones have become the overwhelming choice for employees who demand
anytime anywhere productivity," said Patrick Sweeney, vice president of product management
and corporate marketing at SonicWALL. "Our Mobile Connect App
[http://www.sonicwall.com/us/products/Mobile_Connect.html?utm_source=PressRelease&utm_medium 11Releases&utm_content=MobileConnect&utm_campaign1201_MobileConnectApp ]
lets
companies extend their security policy to meet the stringent needs of enterprise,
government and education institutions, while employees travel outside of the protected
perimeter. This will help enable greater workforce productivity."
By deploying the SonicWALL Mobile Connect App
[http://www.sonicwall.com/us/products/Mobile_Connect.html?utm_source=PressRelease&utm_medium 11Releases&utm_content=MobileConnect&utm_campaign1201_MobileConnectApp ]

can take full advantage of the power and innovation of iPad and iPhone-simply and
securely. IT organizations can now support iPad and iPhone users by giving them secure

intranet sites, email and more.
