the internet.

WARNING
Note that that handling safety and security events from remote over the Internet
might be risky and not be allowed by the company's security policy, local law or
code of practice.
Consider to configure the Web Services in view only mode and/or setup a Virtual
Private Network (VPN) connection between the router and the mobile devices.
In addition, we recommend using the IIS Client Certificate Mapping Authentication
method in order to ensure that only mobile devices with a valid certificate are able
to connect to the DMS8000 Web Services.
