Wireless Security

Security concerns do not have to impede WLAN adoption

Wireless brings many benefits to the enterprise, but as with the introduction of any technology, wireless also introduces new risks and vulnerabilities. As wireless technology proliferates, "wired" network security and strong WLAN encryption are insufficient protection from emerging wireless threats. Without the right tools to understand what is happening in your airspace, your business is exposed. A misconfigured access points, a rogue (unauthorized) access point, an employee connecting to a neighbor's network or a hacker sitting in your parking lot - all these can open a back door into your enterprise network and compromise your data. AirTight's wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS) is designed to protect your business by monitoring and defending your airspace, 24/7 without adding administrative burdens.
