AirShield 2.0

Wireless Security Framework, a unique layered security solution, comprises the set of security modules spanning from asset security to application layer security.

AirShield 2.0 allows implementation of wireless security policies while providing strong risk management and application assurance services. AirShield 2.0 recognizes that security is not the end-goal in itself, but rather the key building block in providing assured application delivery to business partners and employees.

AirShield weaves the Wireless LAN (WLAN) management and performance monitoring into the wireless security and application availability framework. It allows close monitoring of the potential impact of various security outbreaks, like denial of service floods, viruses, and worms on the wireless application availability. Additionally, the AirShield security framework extends the wireless security’s three best practices of authentication and encryption, authorization and isolation, and wireless Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS) to add the asset security and application security layers. By doing this, the AirShield empowers organizations in implementing strong and extensive wireless security posture as a part of an overall wireless strategy.
