Cisco ITP MAP Gateway for Public WLAN SIM Authentication and Authorization [ Source: Cisco ]
January 2008- Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) operators are recognizing the need for high-speed wireless data services. Cisco Systems has embarked on an effort to enable authentication of WLAN subscribers using the existing and well-proven GSM-based user authentication and existing GSM provisioning facilities. Cisco ITP MAP Gateway function enables existing GSM service providers to fully integrate 802.11 technology into their existing GSM network using subscriber-identity-mobile (SIM) cards. Cisco ITP MAP Gateway function enables a WLAN authentication based ...

Managing And Securing Mobile Healthcare Data And Devices: A Custom Tech Adoption Profile Commissioned by MaaS360 by Fiberlink [ Source: Fiberlink ]
March 2010- Healthcare and life sciences organizations depend on knowledge workers –  physicians, researchers, technicians, nurses, analysts, statisticians, salespeople and other professionals – who count on being able to work anytime, anywhere.

A recent report from Forrester® Consulting confirms that healthcare organizations are among the most mobile in the world, and among the most concerned with issues like regulatory compliance and data security. 

WEP Cloaking - Maximizing ROI From Legacy Wireless LAN [ Source: AirDefense ]
January 2008- Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the encryption protocol defined in the original IEEE 802.11 standard for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). Several known vulnerabilities and attack tools have compromised WEP making it unsuitable for secure WLAN implementations, without additional layers of security. AirDefense’s patented WEP Cloaking solution is designed to make WEP virtually invulnerable to known attacks and tools, providing a robust layer of protection for legacy WLANs. The solution does not require any hardware ...

Space-Time-Frequency Transmit Diversity in Broadband Wireless OFDM Systems [ Source: DoCoMo Euro-Labs ]
January 2008- This paper published by DoCoMo Euro-Labs considers space-time - frequency transmits diversity with orthogonal designs in a broadband OFDM system. On capacity considerations for Gaussian as well as real world signal constellations, it show that the concatenation of an outer error control code, a bit interleaver and orthogonal spatial transmit diversity provides an attractive MIMO scheme which is robust to channel imperfections such as spatial correlation. It proposes an application of orthogonal designs for space-time-frequency ...

Technical Overview of Nokia IP VPN [ Source: Nokia ]
January 2008- Firewalls and VPNs have melded into single-product solutions available from many vendors. However, enterprise-class VPN deployments require more than an IPSec stack rigged to the side of a firewall. Nokia IP VPN products are VPN devices first, and provide capabilities that are not found in devices that are firewalls first and VPN devices second. By combining high availability and scalability through clustering with dedicated high performance hardware, Nokia enables the enterprise network manager to build ...

Centralized/Infrastructure Spectral Assurance: Evaluating Total Cost of Ownership [ Source: Interop ]
April 2010- While many forms of wireless-LAN assurance and verification tools have become available over the past decade or so of the history of the WLAN and Wi-Fi, one of the last to be addressed is the ability to examine activity at the physical layer(PHY) – in other words, to look at what’s happening in the air itself, what we call spectral assurance (SA). SA is particularly important not just because the frequencies used by WLANs ...

The End of the Overlay: Unified Networks Arrive [ Source: Interop ]
March 2010- Unified networking is now firmly established as one of the key directions for LAN deployments going forward. As is the case with the improvement in visibility and strategic direction resulting from the ratification of the 802.11n standard,there is little question today regarding the viability of the unified approach, nor with the system vendors’ ability to field product lines implementing the concept. Learn about the benefits of unified networks in this whitepaper from Farpoint Group. ...

Controlling Wireless Costs With Any Connection Reporting: Supporting Three Dimensions of Mobile Intelligence [ Source: Fiberlink ]
March 2010- Employees today are connecting their laptops to the Internet from everywhere: homes and offices, airports and train stations, hotels and retail stores, street corners and moving cars.

These mobile workers expect simple connectivity and fast performance. They expect to be able to use whatever access method is most convenient, but they don’t pay much attention to cost or security. So it is no surprise that wireless costs are spiraling upward, while security ...
