Set up the Zero Trust Access App for Android Devices

End users can access private resources from their mobile devices running the Android operating system using the Zero Trust Access app. For information on client limitations and a comparison between generic Android and Samsung Android, see Release Notes for Cisco Secure Client.

Requirements and Prerequisites

• A device running Android version 14+.
• A Google Play store account.

Configure Cisco Secure Access

1. Configure a posture profile for client-based Zero Trust Connections that includes Android devices:
   Navigate to Secure > Endpoint Posture Profiles.
2. Configure a private resource that allows client-based ZTA connections:
   Navigate to Resources > Private Resources.
3. Ensure that a network tunnel or resource connector is configured to send ZTA traffic to this resource.
   Navigate to Connect > End User Connectivity.
4. Configure a private access rule that allows the user ID associated with the Samsung Android device to access the private resource you configured above. Select a posture profile that includes Android devices.
   Navigate to Secure > Access Rules.

Install the App

There are two ways to distribute the app to Android Samsung devices:

• You or end users can obtain the app from the Google Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cisco.secureclient.zta
• You can use your EMM/MDM vendor ecosystem
