Cisco Web Security: Cisco AnyConnect has a built-in module that enables web security
either through the on-premises Cisco Web Security Appliance (WSA) or the cloud-based
Cisco Cloud Web Security offering. Combining web security with VPN, administrators
can provide comprehensive secure mobility to all end users, which is important for BYOD
deployments.
Persistent security and policy enforcement: Enterprises have a choice to deploy a
premises-based Cisco Web Security Appliance or use the software-as-a-service
(SaaS) Cisco Cloud Web Security offering to keep malware off their corporate networks
and control and secure their employees’ web usage. The extensibility of the Cisco
AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client supports both cloud-based and premises-based
web security solutions, providing flexibility to help ensure a safe and productive Internet
environment. Context-aware security policy, including enforcing acceptable use and
protection from malware, is available for all users.
Clientless access: The Cisco ASA appliances provide SSL connectivity through a variety
of browsers across multiple platforms. Cisco ASA enables administrators to provide
clientless VPN access to unmanaged endpoints and offers access to various web and
TCP/IP-based applications. These are provided through a rewriter, plugins, or smart
tunnels using browser embedded SSL technology while ensuring granular access
control and end-to-end security.
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) access: The Cisco ASA can securely terminate
a VDI session and seamlessly enable access to virtualized applications and desktops.
Client and clientless access to virtual resources are offered for mobile devices, laptops,
and desktop devices. Virtual-resource access powered by the Cisco Secure Remote
Access is vendor-agnostic and benefits from a single access policy, defined for virtual
and traditional resources.
Cisco HostScan package: The Cisco ASA scans endpoints requesting remote access
and determines whether their state is compliant with the company’s policy before
granting access. An administrator can also remediate noncompliant endpoints. Cisco
HostScan can be used whether the access is client-based or clientless.
Mobile devices: With the recent bring-your-own-device (BYOD) phenomenon,
administrators need to support end-user productivity by enabling these users to use
their own mobile devices for remote access to the company’s network. The AnyConnect
client can be deployed on most consumer devices, including Android and Apple based
smartphones and tablets. Administrators will enjoy the ease of certificate deployment
offered by the Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) proxy built into Cisco ASA
solutions, which includes pre-deployment device identification.
