Mobility, security, productivity

Giving a mobile workforce access to the corporate LAN will always preoccupy the mind of IT Managers across mission-critical organizations. Indisputably, IT Management’s primary concerns have to do with security, technical interoperability, overall cost and ROI of the technology.

Mobile VPN Technology Means Fast, Reliable Communications

Radio IP Software's Mobile VPN solutions are easy-to-manage as well as being secure and seamless to the end-users. The software simply delivers the critical data that they need, whenever and wherever they need it, with total interoperability across a wide range of wireless technologies. This translates to improved daily mobility and productivity for organizations with a mobile workforce looking to maximize existing infrastructure while at the same time accommodating future technology choices.

Roaming and Concurrent VPN

Radio IP Software's patent-pending Concurrent VPN technology enables users to access a variety of software applications from the mobile device, ranging from text dispatch to Internet and multimedia over a broad spectrum of wireless networks. Supported networks range from Professional Mobile Radio (PMR), whether IP or non-IP-based, cellular, satellite and broadband. The Mobile VPN solution ensures that all application data is transmitted on the network best suited for that application's usage requirements with regards to performance, coverage and security. For instance, high quality video streaming apps requires high bandwidth and should be able to concurrently transfer data over 3G or WiFi networks without impacting dispatch application data transmitted over mission-critical PMR systems such as P25.

Security

It is imperative to ensure that all security breaches are eliminated when it comes to data transmission to and from the mobile workforce and the head office.  Whether you are subject to the FBI's CJIS or HIPAA rules, make sure that your organization meets legal and regulatory security mandates. Here are some ways how:

• Device Authentication - Through the use of digital certificates, validate device authenticity over the network and protect corporate assets against foreign devices attempting to infiltrate the system;
• User Authentication - Validate the identity of users attempting to log onto the network, and add two-factor authentication such as biometrics for more security;
• Data Encryption - Once the VPN tunnel is created, data can be sent over-the-air in an encrypted state: for example, the FBI mandates the use of FIPS 140-2 compliant encryption, either AES (128, 172 or 256-bit) or 3DES (112 or 168-bit);
• IT Infrastructure Protection - Implementing security gate software shields organizations from LAN-directed cyber attacks such as "denial of service" (DOS) or "buffer overrun" when making use of public wireless networks that are IP-based.
