Simplify Mobility and Network Access Control
You get through security, find your gate, and sit down to check
your email on your phone. You are greeted with a new message: a
prospective customer asking for a proposal. The clock is ticking to
get it done. You log into your internal network, and Gate D5 has now
transformed into your office. With access to the right resources, you
complete the proposal and securely send it off to the customer. The
customer is impressed by your speed and you land the deal - all before
you board your flight.

platform that unifies and automates secure access control. Our solution
