Las Vegas, NV - May 19, 2009 - AirTight^® Networks, the leading provider of wireless security and compliance solutions, announced today at Interop 2009 the availability of new appliances and additional functionality for its SpectraGuard^® Enterprise WIPS product.

With these enhancements, customers are assured that they are always protected even if an appliance fails or the power goes down."
