Password Protection
The Access Mobile Client application can be configured to require authentication upon startup. This
option prevents someone using your device from accessing Acronis Access without authorization.
Application password protection can be enabled on the Acronis Access Settings menu, or may be
enabled automatically if you are managed by a Acronis Access management policy. For more
information about creating an application password see Setting an Application Password (p. 17).
In addition to the application lock password, Acronis Access uses your corporate Active Directory
account to regulate access to all Acronis Access Gateway servers.
HTTPS Encrypted Network Communication
The Access Mobile Client uses HTTPS protocol for all network communication. This ensures secure
authentication and file transfer between Acronis Access clients and Gateway servers. The HTTPS
protocol encrypts all files during their transfer.
Apple Data Protection
All files within the Access Mobile Client application's storage area on the device are encrypted with
Apple Data Protection, if Apple Data Protection is enabled.
To enable Apple Data Protection, you must have an iOS Passcode Lock set on your device.
