AirDefense Delivers Advanced Wireless LAN Security Solution

AirDefense and Symbol Technologies have announced integrated wireless access and intrusion prevention solutions that together will provide the most secure and robust wireless LAN offering available. Using advanced technology from AirDefense, enhanced wireless intrusion protection systems (IPS) will be integrated with Symbol's new Wireless Next Generation (Wi-NG) architecture to enable security on Symbol's RF switch products. The AirDefense Enterprise Wireless IPS will be integrated with the Symbol Wi-NG architecture and utilize Symbol access points as sensor devices.

AirDefense constantly assesses the threat posed by wireless devices by using multiple detection engines and wireless correlation. AirDefense products catch even the most sophisticated attacks while eliminating false positive alarms that waste administrators' time. Using anomalous behavior detection, AirDefense technology also identifies day-zero threats that otherwise go unseen by signature detection systems.

Symbol's Wi-NG architecture will enable the consolidation of Wi-Fi, RFID, VoWLAN (Voice over Wireless LAN), mesh and WiMAX networks in the industry's first integrated RF switching platform. AirDefense Enterprise Wireless IPS and Symbol's Wi-NG architecture will provide customers with a centrally managed solution, using Symbol access points and sensors for enhanced security and location-based services.
