Control which Forticlient apps are allowed to connect?

Hi All,

 

I wondered if there was a way to control which Forticlient applications are allowed to connect to to SSL-VPN via Fortigate? We use Forticlient on all Windows devices, but we've recently found that if a user with enough knowledge installs the app on say an Apple or Android mobile device, they can connect that device.

 

Is there a way of restricting so only Windows versions of Forticlient is allowed to connect?

 

Thanks in advance,

Alex

We kind of have the same issue here.

We are restricting access to VPN to only domain joined computers, but all checks are bypassed when connecting from a iPhone/Android device... not much security ;)
