Description
HomeBound™ extends the protection of GRYPHON™ to mobile devices even when it’s outside the home.
HomeBound™ is your mobile device app that is easy to install on a mobile device and routes the traffic of the mobile device, when outside the home, back to your Gryphon secure mesh WiFi router so that it can be managed and protected as if it were still on your Gryphon network. The app works in conjunction with your Gryphon secure mesh WiFi router and the Gryphon Connect app. You will need to first install Gryphon before installing HomeBound™ on the mobile devices that need to be managed.
