Managing Today's New Breed of Wireless Endpoints

The "consumerization" of private networks continues to evolve as the number and type of WIFI enabled devices grow every year. These user-owned devices have added to mounting IT capacity, management, and security concerns. The new proliferation of endpoints includes laptops, netbooks, smartphones, PDAs, iPhone and iPads, and other IP-enabled devices that create operational and compliance issues with respect to established network configuration and security standards. The challenge organizations face is not WHEN to support this wide range of devices, but HOW to support them with minimal impact to IT and help desk efforts. Avenda's eTIPS solution allows IT teams to accommodate each endpoint with network-wide policies while still protecting the infrastructure from behavior from out-of-policy endpoints and malicious threats.

Simplicity and Security for Employee and Guest Networks

• Create an easy way for users to register new devices
• Give greater network resource access to approved wireless devices
• Place non-compliant devices into a restricted VLAN (Internet only)
• Share detailed reports for planning and compliance use
