Adaptive Protection
Introduction Adaptive Protection automatically adapts each agent's security level according to the
type of network connection it is using. For example, you can set Adaptive Protection to
use a more restrictive security level when users are logged on over a VPN, and a less
restrictive security level when users are logged directly onto the network.
When to use
adaptive protection You may need to connect to your corporate network from inside your corporate
headquarters, from your home office, or from the floor of a trade show. For example:
●
Inside your corporate office, your firewall is automatically set to the Trusting
protection level.
●
At your home office, your firewall is set to Cautious for most communications. It
switches to Trusting when you connect to your corporate network over a VPN, and
switches back to Cautious when the VPN connection closes.
●
At a trade show, your firewall automatically switches to Paranoid when you plug into
the conference network. It switches to Trusting when you connect to your corporate
VPN, and then switches back to Paranoid when the VPN connection closes.
Note:
Adaptive protection settings are usually sent down to a local agent from ICEcap
Manager. Use these instructions on your local agent only if your ICEcap administrator
recommends it. Your ICEcap administrator may also provide you with the correct IP
addresses to use.

dynamically, see “Using Adaptive Protection” on page 35.
