Description
The secure connection from the smartphone to the smartphone management server can be used by the smartphone user to connect to back-office servers and applications located on the enclave network. These connections bypass network authentication controls setup on the enclave. Strong access controls to back-office servers are required to ensure DoD data is not exposed to users of the smartphone system that are not authorized to access the back-office servers and applications.
