We don't have any change log information yet for version 4.8.03052 of Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client. Sometimes publishers take a little while to make this information available, so please check back in a few days to see if it has been updated. Initially I told anyconnect to connect to a certain Wifi and had the box checked for Remember and for two days it worked great. Today when the device is powered on it connected to a different SSID.
Some USC online-based services require access through on-campus USC Secure Wireless or a wired network connection. USC offers a Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection to provide secure remote access to these services when you are off-campus. When off-campus, you must use the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client to access internal USC systems handling confidential or sensitive data, such as Student Information System (SIS), and file servers for specific schools and departments. The Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility client is a web-based VPN client that does not require user configuration.
