Sophos helps partners to simplify Wi-Fi Protection
Sophos announced the availability of Sophos Wireless, its first cloud-based solution for the protection and management of wireless networks. Managed through the Sophos Central platform, Sophos customers and partners can now secure and manage wireless networking in a single console alongside their Sophos endpoint, mobile, web and server protection. “Today, there are very few businesses that do not provide a wireless network to allow employees or visitors to stay connected and the management of those networks is critical to maintaining an organization’s IT security,” commented Bryan Barney, Senior Vice-President & General Manager of Sophos Network Security Group. “By adding the management of Sophos Wireless to Sophos Central, we’re helping our partners simplify better network protection and quickly expand the services they offer to customers. The cloud-based platform enables Sophos to release feature updates every three weeks meaning
Sophos Wireless benefits from constant advancement to stay ahead of the latest threats,” he further said. James Lyne, Head of Global Security Research at Sophos, knows that many organizations are failing to adequately protect their networks. “Our war-biking research into the state of wireless network security showed that very few wireless networks adhered to security best practices and some were using protocols so ancient that attackers could break into their networks in seconds. Once in, an attacker could read, intercept and even alter the traffic across the network, and from there it would not take them long to find a way into the corporate network to launch further attacks,” he added.
