Thank you for your feedback
Introduction
The Harmony SASE system includes Web Security features. When Internet Security is enabled on the workspace, the system deploys a locally installed Certificate, Content Filter, and System Extension to perform SSL decryption. These components are typically installed post-login, requiring user approval. Admins can pre-deploy these configurations to eliminate the need for user approval and prevent potential misconfigurations of web security components.
Deploying the Agent through MDM
Downloading the Certificate
- For information on how to download the certificate, see Downloading the Secure Web Gateway (SWG) root Certificate.
- Once the certificate is downloaded, add it to your deployment through MDM.
Deploying the Content Filter and System Extension
- For your convenience, we have generated a .mobileconfig file with the needed configurations that can be deployed using MDM:
Harmony SASE.mobileconfig - Alternatively, a Workspace Admin can manually configure the Content Filter and System Extension for deployment through MDM.NoteEach vendor may assign different names to these values.
