How Skyhigh Mobile Client Works

  1. Last updated

Skyhigh Mobile Client (SMC) secures mobile devices by enforcing Cloud Application Control policies through the Skyhigh Web Security Gateway Service (WGCS). SMC forwards mobile traffic over an IPSec tunnel on ports 80 and 443 to Skyhigh Cloud, ensuring secure internet connectivity and access to private applications.

Prerequisite

Ensure that the Skyhigh Mobile Client is installed on your device.

SMC Workflow
  1. The mobile device sends all traffic (IA + PA) to the Mobile IPSec server.
  2. The Mobile IPSec server sends the traffic to the SWG for filtering.
  3. The SWG applies security policies to the mobile traffic.

NOTE: SMC forwards all traffic, including DNS requests, to the IPSec server, which runs a DNS service to resolve queries for both internet traffic and private applications.
