VPN users using personal computers

Ninjatech1969 over 5 years ago

Hello All,

Has anyone allowed VPN connection for users using their personal computer? How are you protecting your network? Any way

to have XG firewalls to not allow access if AV is not installed or AV is out of date. Also if the OS doesn't have the latest patch.

Is the XG firewall intelligent enough to know if there is something going on such as cryptolocker? thoughts on this...

Thanks

Hi Ninjatech1969

You can apply scanning and IPS policy on VPN to LAN firewall rules for security purpose and if such traffic travels through that specific rule the XG firewall will scan and take appropriate action as per the configuration but XG firewall can't scan the user system, for that you can use AV/EndPoint protection in the local system.
