AirTight Networks Launches Blog on WLAN and Wireless Security

As the Enterprise Faces More Wireless Security and Compliance Concerns, Information Exchange Becomes More Critical

Mountain View, CA. - June 29, 2009 - As the leading provider of wireless intrusion prevention (WIPS) products and services, AirTight Networks has launched a new Blog to help organizations garner insights and exchange information about WLAN security and emerging wireless technologies and threats. The blog will feature commentary and podcasts from AirTight experts to help educate IT departments and security professionals on subjects including:

• How the proliferation of WiFi and wireless devices in the enterprise affects their networks performance and security
• How various government and industry regulations such as PCI DSS 1.2, SOX, GLBA and HIPAA affect the way they protect their networks
• Best practices for creating and enforcing wireless compliance policies
• How to recognize malicious exploits such as Caffe Latte and Karmetasploit
• What trends are emerging for WLAN security

"We believe it is important to offer information on emerging technologies not only to our customers but also to the larger security community, as well as to get input and share information about wireless security from that community," said Della Lowe, Senior Director of Corporate Marketing at AirTight. "While we communicate with our customers and prospects through more traditional channels such as Webinars, white papers and events, the AirTight Blog will also give customers a look inside the culture and operations of AirTight and allow them to interact with the company in both traditional ways and in a personal way, as they get to know some of the thought leaders and developers behind AirTight's products."

The AirTight Blog features ten employee bloggers who represent Network Architecture, Research and Development, Security Engineering, Product Management, Executive Leadership, Marketing and, of course, AirTight's own ethical hacker.

AirTight actively participates in other online communities including YouTube and Twitter.
