AirDefense is pleased to invite you to a 90-minute educational webcast with executives from AirDefense and Nortel to discuss the implications of Wireless LAN Security for Financial Service providers.

Despite the productivity and cost-saving benefits of wireless LANs, financial service providers have viewed wireless LANs cautiously. The early security flaws and new regulatory demands have caused the most progressive IT departments to carefully evaluate all risks before deploying wireless LANs. Even financial service providers that choose not to deploy wireless LANs must address the issue of unauthorized, “rogue” WLANs. With or without enterprise WLAN deployments, every financial service provider must address wireless LAN security to fully protect sensitive customer information and comply with evolving regulations.

Attend this complimentary webcast to understand the WLAN security needs for all financial service providers to root out all unauthorized wireless LANs, lock down enterprise WLAN deployments, secure the integrity of customer information, and adhere to new industry regulations.
