NetExperience has unveiled its new Secure Wireless Gateway, aiming to set a new security standard for Wi-Fi networks. This innovative solution provides robust safeguards directly on OpenWiFi access points. Not only does it protect users at the edge of the network, but it also opens up new recurring revenue streams for service providers.
Protecting Users with Advanced In-Kernel Layer 7 Security
The Secure Wireless Gateway operates as an in-kernel application on compatible OpenWiFi access points. Unlike traditional methods, it eliminates the need for complex deep packet inspection (DPI). Instead, it leverages advanced Layer 7 inspection and content filtering. This enables real-time detection and blocking of threats by analyzing traffic such as DNS, HTTP, and TLS (SNI) at the access point level. Users benefit from protection against evasion techniques like encrypted DNS and VPN tunneling, making networks safer from modern digital threats.
Flexible Security Solutions for Service Providers and MDUs
NetExperience’s gateway supports dynamic per-tenant security policies, making it ideal for multi-dwelling units (MDUs) and similar environments. Service providers can offer premium filtering tiers, manage P2P controls, and create enhanced isolation between tenants. For specialized sectors such as senior living, the platform deploys tailored profiles to reduce exposure to tech scams and phishing. Meanwhile, education networks can take advantage of CIPA-compliant filtering with unique policies for classrooms, dorms, and guest access.
Seamless Integration with OpenWiFi Access Points and Cloud
This solution is available immediately on supported OpenWiFi access points from major vendors. Managed via the cloud-based NetExperience platform, operators can easily roll out advanced security services without installing additional hardware. The platform’s compatibility with OpenWiFi and OpenLAN architectures ensures scalable and cost-effective management for service providers.
In summary, the NetExperience Secure Wireless Gateway delivers a modern, efficient approach to Wi-Fi security. By enabling advanced protections at the network edge and flexible management through the cloud, it empowers service providers to enhance user security while unlocking new business opportunities. As cyber threats evolve, solutions like this will be increasingly vital in safeguarding connected communities.
