This document provides instructions on how to install, configure, and use the Sophos VPN Client with One-Time Passwords (OTP), to create a secure remote connection to the Atlantic corporate network, from anywhere in the world that has Internet access.
This requires the use of an Android or iOS mobile device with a data plan. A small application will be installed on the device, and will require a very minimal amount of data. The sole purpose of the application is to generate a random 6-digit number, every 30 seconds, which will be used as part of the password when connecting remotely.
Any questions or concerns should be directed to the Atlantic Packaging I.T. Infrastructure group.
- On your IOS or Android mobile device, go to the Play Store or App Store, and install the Sophos
Authenticator app. It will place a shortcut to the app on your mobile device. The icon will be
labelled Authenticator. Once installed, put down your mobile device for now. - On the computer where you will be installing the Tunnelblick. Go to: https://tunnelblick.net/
