Unfortunately, this still doesn't prevent a rogue application from connection sniffing during the session establishment, and then reporting passwords, IPs etc. later on when the VPN and SecureClient are down. Sort of the same scenario that happened to Microsoft. I'm starting to wonder if there's any way to prevent this type of situation besides two-factor authentication like SecurID, SmartCards, etc.?

SecureClient has added functionality that the SecuRemote you know of. SecureClient has the ability to download a desktop policy which limits what types of traffic can come in and out of that laptop. Plus, you can force laptop users to download a desktop policy or that cannot go anywhere, so they cannot get around it-if they are still connected to your network via VPN. You need a SecureClient user license, which is not free like SecuRemote. You will create an object for your policy server, which will be your current mgmt station, which the users download SecuRemote topology and SecureClient Desktop policies from. I believe the desktop policies are; Allow All Allow Outgoing only Allow Outgoing and Encrypted Allow Encrypted only Jason -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2001 1:02 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW1] SecureClient and SecureRemote Hello Have anyone experience with SecureClient abbr.
