About the SEP Mobile Integration

As part of the business/enterprise web security solution portfolio, the
Web Security Service
 integrates with the Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) Mobile service. Registered devices protect employees from web threats and enforce acceptable web use polices established by your company. You can instantly disconnect lost or compromised devices from your network.
Before mobile devices with the
SEP-Mobile
 app can connect, you must integrate your
WSS
 account with your
SEP-Mobile
 Manager account.
The new SEP-Mobile architecture is considered early access availability. Further information and best practices might be added to this topic as necessary.
