What is Enforced Client?
Enforced Client delivers comprehensive security as a service for all the computers on your
account. These services automatically check for threats, intercept them, take the appropriate
action to keep your data and your network safe, and track detections and security status for
reports.

The Enforced Client client software runs on each computer where it is installed.
2
The client software updates itself — automatically and silently — by downloading the latest
detection definition (
DAT) files from your account’s administrative website, the SonicWALL
SecurityCenter.
3
The client software uploads security information about each computer to the SecurityCenter
for use in administrative reports.
4
As your account’s administrator, you can use a web browser to visit the SecurityCenter,
where you can access reports that detail the status of client computers and use tools for
customizing and managing security.
