Communicating Security Tips
Advise users always to log out from the session. (To log out of Clientless SSL VPN, click the logout icon
on the Clientless SSL VPN toolbar or close the browser.)
Advise users that using Clientless SSL VPN does not ensure that communication with every site is
secure. Clientless SSL VPN ensures the security of data transmission between the remote PC or
workstation and the ASA on the corporate network. If a user then accesses a non-HTTPS web resource
(located on the Internet or on the internal network), the communication from the corporate ASA to the
destination web server is not secure.
