Global Protect

How to Connect | Troubleshooting | FAQs

GlobalProtect is a VPN service that allows student laptops the ability to connect to KS network resources even when not physically on-campus. There are also additional protections enabled while connected to GlobalProtect to help mitigate online risks and vulnerabilities. For these reasons students should ALWAYS be connected to GlobalProtect when connecting to a network.
