Communicating Security Tips
Advise users always to log out from the WebVPN session. (To log out of WebVPN, click the logout icon
on the WebVPN toolbar or close the browser.)
Advise users that using WebVPN does not ensure that communication with every site is secure. WebVPN
ensures the security of data transmission between the remote PC or workstation and the security
appliance on the corporate network. If a user then accesses a non-HTTPS web resource (located on the
Internet or on the internal network), the communication from the corporate security appliance to the
destination web server is not secure.
