PRESS RELEASE 2012-336
First iOS App from LANCOM
LANCOM myVPN for secure network access of iPhone or iPad.
Aachen, August 08, 2012 – LANCOM Systems, the specialist in site- and branch-office connectivity, for the first time presents its customers an iOS App in the Apple AppStore. Mobile working today is a must. The free "LANCOM myVPN" App handles the complex configuration of the VPN client installed on iPads and iPhones to provide a secure IPSec VPN connection to any LANCOM router. All the user has to do is to enter a PIN; the rest of the configuration is automatic.
Highly secure, mobile VPNs as easy as can be: LANCOM myVPN facilitates the integration of mobile iOS devices (as of iOS 4.1) into LANCOM network infrastructures. This ensures that employees always have secure access to company e-mail and applications via the secure VPN connection – be it from the hotel room, in the home office, or when visiting a customer.
LCOS 8.62 must be installed on the LANCOM router. Administrators can use the convenient LANconfig VPN 1-Click-Wizard to create myVPN access profiles for iPhone or iPads and make them available to their users. It is also possible to disable access accounts and to configure access rights with the firewall.
The LANCOM myVPN App is available now for free download from the Apple AppStore.
Dr. Martin Krebs, Product Line Manager at LANCOM: "LANCOM gives you mobility: Mobile working today is a must! Our first App for Apple's iPhone and iPad makes it easy to configure secure IPSec VPN connections to a corporate network. Now it's easy to integrate these devices into company networks without problem."
