autoVPN

Caution

For now, this project's way of operating could be insecure because your password is sent without encryption to the pulselauncher.exe in the command line and could expose it to a potential hacker if your computer has breached.

Also, it's not good practice to automatically connect to an organization's VPN on your session's startup, especially if you don't have to enter a password. If your PC is compromised, it could make your company's internal network potentially vulnerable.

Please proceed with caution!

Connect to your VPN through Ivanti Secure Access Client (formerly Pulse Secure Client) automatically when logging in to Windows!

Features / To-do list

• Auto-connect to the VPN when logging-in to your Windows computer!
