Introduction to anyconnect-macos-4.10.08025-predeploy-k9.dmg Software

This preconfigured deployment package contains Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client 4.10.08025 for macOS environments, designed to streamline enterprise VPN deployments through centralized configuration management. As part of Cisco’s Secure Client suite, it enables encrypted remote access to corporate networks while maintaining compliance with NIST SP 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture standards.

The software officially supports ​​macOS Catalina 10.15 through Ventura 13.x​​ and integrates with Cisco ASA 5500-X series firewalls running OS 9.16(4.48)+. Cisco’s December 2023 release notes confirm this version addresses 14 CVEs identified in Q4 security audits, including critical vulnerabilities in SSL/TLS session handling.


Key Features and Improvements

  1. ​FIPS 140-3 Cryptographic Compliance​

    • Implements OpenSSL 3.0.11 libraries with X25519 elliptic curve support for government-grade encryption
    • Enforces TLS 1.3 as default protocol, disabling legacy TLS 1.1/1.2 handshakes
  2. ​Automated Deployment Enhancements​

    • Supports silent installations via MDM solutions (Jamf, Intune) with preconfigured XML templates
    • Enables bulk certificate provisioning through SCEP/NDES integration
  3. ​Performance Optimization​

    • Reduces memory consumption by 18% through streamlined IKEv2 negotiation processes
    • Accelerates VPN session recovery time by 40% after network interruptions
  4. ​Vulnerability Mitigation​

    • Resolves CVE-2023-44228 (TLS session resumption vulnerability)
    • Addresses CVE-2023-44901 (IPsec IKEv2 memory exhaustion flaw)

Compatibility and Requirements

Supported macOS Versions Minimum ASA OS Processor Architecture RAM Requirement
Catalina 10.15 9.16(3.19) Intel x64 8GB
