Hi CheckMates!

Are you looking for ways to maintain business continuity and keeping your employees secure? Thanks to our not-so-welcomed COVID-19, AKA, Coronavirus, many of us are required to be prepared for secured remote access to corporate resources.

Watch the video below for an insightful Q&A with Jony, a quick demo on how to configure Mobile Access Blade, and a step-by-step guide with Shay on how to configure secure remote access including use cases.
