SERVICE GATEWAY SOLUTIONS FOR EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS
CAMPUS WI-FI
WiFi - Challenges
• Campus Wi-Fi networks operated by universities, schools, colleges have become multi-purpose. No longer restricted to trusted users (e.g. staff employees), visitors or untrusted users are also being provided Internet access over shared Wi-Fi infrastructure
• Securing & managing network access to such different types of users is proving to be a complex challenge for campus owners
WiFi - Challenges
Individual User Controls -- Personalized authentication & network policies for each user
Filter Content – User specific filtering of content is an often cited requirement of campus owners
Accountability – With growing security concerns, particularly from unverified visitors in public hotpsots, most campus owners are looking for ways to track the network activity of Wi-Fi users
Traffic Shaping – Ensuring that traffic flows for specific applications may be prioritized over others
User Wi-Fi Pass – Securely allowing your students & staff to use Internet access is another challenge. Most campuses share a common password which ends up being shared or public over time, providing little security
Inventum's service gateways offer a single-stop solution for campus networks. The all-in-one service gateway combines the functions of a router, firewall (UTM), NAC, user directory & more in a browser managed, ready-to-deploy appliance
