Securing WiFi Access

Array secure access solutions, deployed behind wireless LAN access points, provide a cost-effective and universally compatible platform for securing WiFi connections and providing granular access control for employees and guests based on device and user identity.

Array SPX Series Universal Access Controller appliances, noted for industry-leading security performance and scalability, are ideal for meeting the challenges of securing WiFi networks.

Wireless LAN Security

Even the latest WLAN equipment does not provide sufficient security and has a track record of being compromised on numerous occasions. In contrast, Array SPX Series appliances are purpose-built to provide secure access and connectivity and feature an integrated SSL VPN firewall that protects against network attacks hidden in SSL encrypted traffic.

End-Point Security

Because guest laptops are not company assets, it is impossible to enforce security policies on these devices. Installing software on every laptop is an option, but an extremely expensive one that requires ongoing support, maintenance and time. Even still, many partners and guests simply will not follow company IT and security guidelines. Array SPX Series appliances secure managed and unmanaged end-points – without the need to install client software – eliminating security holes on end-user laptops.

Granular Access Control

In addition to being costly to deploy and support, traditional VPN solutions provide full network access, leaving file shares and business-critical applications vulnerable to partners and guests. In addition to providing full network access for those who need it, connections encrypted by Array SPX Series appliances are also capable of application and portal-based access privileges based on user and device identity.

Virtual Communities

Many companies use separate servers and separate WiFi networks to securely support multiple end-user communities within the organization. This creates management and security enforcement headaches when supporting a large number of groups and users. Array SPX Series appliances support up to 256 fully separate virtual secure access instances, capable of consolidating multiple end-user communities on a single system to reduce cost and complexity and improve security for WiFi access.

Performance & Scalability

Providing network access to a large number of employees, partners and guests is essential for many organizations; however, many overlay security solutions do not provide sufficient scalability. Array SPX Series appliances support up to 64,000 concurrent users on a single system, easily satisfying the capacity needs of any size organization.
