    Can someone please provide technical information and/or any available documentation about CA MAG being used for Microsoft ActiveSync traffic for mobile devices. In particular, examples of how MAG improves security and malware scanning for attachments send via ActiveSync. Thanks!

    In fact, CA Mobile API Gateway doesn't help you with malware scanning for attachments send via Microsoft ActiveSync. It can help you with:

     

    - building custom APIs with help of Policy language;

    - establishing a mutual TLS connection between mobile devices and MAG server that hosts your custom APIs; 

    - abstracting away mobile authorization and authentication complexity by handling OAuth2 and OpenID Connect token exchange;

    - enhancing API security with second factor authentication

    - enabling Single SignOn between native, hybrid and web applications on your mobile device
