FEATURES OF THE PROLINX SECURE WIRELESS SOLUTION
Prolinx Secure Wireless is delivered as a fully managed end-to-end service.
The service includes site survey, installation, configuration, monitoring, and ongoing maintenance of the Wireless LAN and associated Network Controllers.
It provides support for different classes of wireless devices, such as multimedia devices, with appropriate security controls including network segregation.
All LAN traffic is encrypted from the End User Device to LAN egress.
The service features an Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) for enforcement and continuous Intrusion Detection System (IDS) monitoring, with regular signature updates to detect rogue devices and unauthorized network access.
Enhancing security, our centralised Wi-Fi Architecture treats Access Points (APs) as untrusted devices, shifting Wi-Fi encryption from the AP to the central Wireless Controller.
This ensures that even with physical access to a deployed AP, adversaries cannot compromise Wi-Fi communications between a wireless client and the rest of the network.
Our wireless deployments support the latest authentication methods and protocols, such as EAP-TLS and WPA3.
