Title: Security Policy on remote clients when not connected

Hello all,

Can someone clarify the following for me:

-remote user connects to corporate LAN for the first time using Secure Client
-remte user receives a desktop policy from the policy server
-remote user closes his/her VPN connection to the corporate LAN
-remote user continues to use the Internet while not VPNed into the corporate LAN and consequently not connected to a policy server.

At this point, will Secure Client offer any sort of protection (i.e. personal firewalling) or alerts to the remote user while he/she is out on the Internet and not connected via VPN to the corporate LAN?

Please reply with details for both a 4.1 SP 5 and NG environment.

Regards,
