Roaming Clients
Roaming Clients submodule provides protection for the remote endpoints when not connected to the organization network, adding another layer of security. According to the needs of the business, admins might want to continue the protection of roaming client on the organization network. Using this feature admin can provide protection for such clients connected to both organization network and also to internet via cloud.
This feature is quite helpful for the remote clients. Apart from it, it does not require any additional machine set up apart from the (on-premise) EPS Server in the network. All the communication is handled by the EPS Server via Cloud to the client having stable internet connection.
Here, the remote clients will update their status, download the latest configuration from the EPS Server via Cloud.
