Wireless Security Concerns

Wireless security concerns will grow as companies
begin to use wireless LANs to support video and voice
applications, municipalities launch outdoor wireless mesh
networks, and mobile employees and teleworkers take advantage
of broadband wireless connections.
Sometimes technology
can be too easy. One of the biggest wireless-security problems
for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), according to
security consultants, happens when an employee buys a cheap
retail wireless access point, plugs it into an Ethernet jack
on the network, and instantly establishes a wireless
local-area network (LAN).
Unfortunately for the
company, this "rogue" access point won't be secure because
anyone can use it. And any hacker can use a "sniffer" device
to tap the radio frequency and read data that is being
transmitted via the access point.
These scenarios are
big concerns for SMBs. Fortunately, advances in network
security, such as integrated systems for wired and wireless
networks, increase protection while concurrently making
wireless LAN deployment and management more
cost-effective.

Small and midsize businesses are rapidly adopting
asymmetric digital subscriber lines (ADSL) as a cost-effective
connectivity option. This connection technology comes with
some unique operating and security requirements that differ
from standard ISDN and T-1 connections. Fortinet's
FortiGate-60ADSL, FortiWiFi-60A and FortiWiFi-60AM provide
ADSL with the same security functionality and protection of
its standard unified threat-management appliances. These
standard features include ASIC-based accelerated processing,
stateful-inspection firewall, antivirus, IPSec and SSL VPN,
IPS, Web filtering, traffic shaping, antispam and antispyware.
The 60ADSL features dual WAN support for redundant
connectivity and an integrated four-port switch, which extends
its power by providing networking capabilities. The WiFi-60A
and WiFi-60AM are designed specifically for wireless
implementations and support the full range of wireless
standards (802.11a/b/g).
