Connect Secure functionalities

Reviewed on 2018-10-07

Pros

Easy to use software to connect through VPN (Virtual Private Network) to the company's internal network.

This software provides a secure extension of the local area network (LAN) over a public or uncontrolled network such as the Internet, to access the internal files (with the necessary permissions) of the company where you work safely.

It has a simple interface, it is selected the connection previously configured by the system administrator, click connect and now.

Cons

I have not detected any disadvantages yet. You must have the necessary permissions to access and this gives robustness to the security of the information established by the company.

Cons

I didn't like on this software is on the mobile part especially on android. there is a bug occurring when authentication pop-up over other application pop. You need to close all your apps just to proceed.

By using it on a daily basis I had a lot of issues with some of its versions whenever there's a small "drop" or lag in the network, which basically would kill my whole connection thus making me to re-connect and reopen all the closed software.
Other than that, when it does work it provides me a gateway to my company's corp network.

Pros

Easy connections to VPNs and corporate networks.

Cons

Sensitive to network fluctuations which can be tedious sometimes.

I use pulse with a large enterprise client that has numerous remote workers. I have never had a connection issue! You hardly notice you're connected to a VPN. Connections are quick, whether connecting or disconnecting. It works with my DUO 2fa easily, and I can even request a push instead of entering a password.

Pros

- Easy to connect
- Consistent Signal
- Taskbar app
- Mobile/Smartphone options
- LDAP Integration

Cons

- Setup isn't super intuitive
- The app stays open even when I've disconnected

It avoids the permeability and/or breakage of data that is in use, circulating through a network or accumulated in a terminal or server. These procedures are essential to prevent the loss of legal information of great value to the company, the department and the clients.

Pros

It involves all those experiences, techniques and provisions proposed for the convenient management of computer resources and files. In addition, it contains the skills and abilities that will be developed in the face of any event or improper administration of security protocols. The goal is to find the most unpredictable element of cybersecurity, which is the individual.

Cons

By outsourcing services we create dependencies with suppliers. This may have negative impediments from an information security point of view

It has helped us by letting us connect in an easy way wherever we are to continue our job.

Pros

The ease to use the software, everything is done in a one click fashion. And it also has a lot of options to log in to the vpn in case you don't want or cannot use a method.

Cons

Sometimes 2 step authentication can be strangely hard to make and if you do not disconnect the vpn, it may reset whenever you close or open the computer instead of being paused.

I haven't had any issues with this software. I use it daily to connect to a VPN. I didn't do the initial set up, so I don't know much about that, but I do know that once it is set up, there isn't much to it. I just click "connect" and type a password and I am in. About as easy as it gets. No frills.

Pros

Easy to get what you want. If you want to connect to one VPN, just click "connect". If you want to connect to another, same thing. Minimal footprint on desktop. Easy to see relevant information.

Cons

A little slow to connect, but maybe that means the software is verifying a secure connection?

You can get to the company's server really fast.
This program enables users to use all other internal applications, exactly like when they are at work

I use Connect Secure on a regular basis, multiple times during the day. The tool requires you to do a set up initially by asking you to perform a number of steps. The overall experience has been very good and the authentication process is very robust.

Pros

Connect Secure is one of the best tools that I have used for connecting to virtual machines. The application sends automated notifications to your mobile phone and you also get the alternate option of going in the application and entering the code manually in case the automated notification doesn't trigger for some reason.

Cons

There were some challenges in getting this application on my registered mobile device for the first time and eventually I had to reach out to my IT desk to get the application installed on my phone. Apart from that there has not been any complications with the application.

Overall, this software is a simple, quiet, and smooth way to provide yourself protection without taking away from your productivity.

Pros

I use this software on my work computer to protect healthcare data. I love that it is light software that runs in the background without constant popups and notifications. It does not take up a bunch of RAM or battery while it is running, which I have experienced with other security options.

Cons

Pros

Not everyone gets he working principle behind it but it helps you connect to a private network and access files from outside the private network. It is just fascinating.

Cons

THE SETUP, I could blame the organisation for the improperly setting up and not providing enough instructions but at the same time, ConnectSecure should have a searchable list of the private networks on is trying to access provided that anyone can look those up anyways, the authentication is still there.

Overall, Connect Secure is an extremely easy to use VPN service that provides secure connections to a companies web server. As long as you have an internet connection and valid network credentials, accessing the companies web server remotely is very very simple.

Pros

What I liked most about Connect Secure is how simple it is to use. Once you have established the network you want to connect to, all you need to do is enter in your credentials and you're in. This makes working remotely incredibly easy as you have access to your network just as if you were in the office.

Cons

The only complaint I have with Connect Secure is that it runs in the background no matter if you are using it or not. It is not very memory intensive, and you do have the ability to disable the Startup Launch so this is more of an annoyance than a major con.
