Jun 5, 2024 — Akamai Zero Trust Client Mobile 1.2.2 Threat Protection Beta Release

​Akamai​​Zero Trust Client​ Mobile​ 1.2.2 is now available. You can update your app in the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.

New features and improvements

  • Threat Protection toggle. ​The Settings menu now includes a toggle that lets you enable or disable Threat Protection.

📘

Threat Protection is available in beta.

  • Client log sharing for Threat Protection users. The Access service is no longer required to share client logs with the administrator. With this release, you can share client logs when running the client in Threat Protection-only mode.
  • Threat Protection alerts. The Diagnostics > Alerts tab now displays information about blocked requests to access a host or resource, for example, when you try to visit a website that is blocked by the current SIA policy setting.

Known issues

  • On iOS devices, after an extended period of inactivity (deep sleep), the mobile client may display incorrect Access status. The Access icon may appear green (indicating connectivity) even if traffic isn’t being routed to the EAA cloud. The workaround is to run the quick diagnostic and re-authenticate when prompted.
  • Honor View 20 users may encounter the following issues:
    • After a certain period of time, the mobile client may stop routing network traffic through EAA and divert it to a direct path instead.
    • VPN may refuse to connect. The workaround is to reinstall the app.
    • Threat Protection is not supported on Honor View 20.

Limitations

  • EAA TCP-type client-access applications aren’t supported. For TCP-based applications, use the tunnel-type mode.
  • When addressing Device Posture remediation for signals that require attention, note that changes to your Device Posture status may not come into effect immediately. The client synchronizes Device Posture signals with EAA every 15 minutes.
  • The mobile client bypasses the multifactor authentication process when authenticating to third-party IDPs that have MFA enabled.
  • Threat Protection beta limitations:

Supported iOS versions

  • iOS 14.1 or later

Supported Android versions

  • Android 10 or later
