Guest Access

As wireless networks grow in popularity, organizations have recognized the need to provide network access to people visiting their offces or campuses, without diminishing the security of their internal networks. With this popularity have come a host of adminstrative burdens related to user account creation and expiration, proper access to network resources, and meeting security and compliance demands.

By default, guest access has meant being subjected to an ever-changing visitor base that is typically unknown to the IT teams. For instance, guests may include customers, visitors, partners, consultants, service personnel, and conference attendees. The lack of a completely contained guest solution will often require adhoc interruptions in order to create temporary identity store entries, to verify the status and health of endpoints, and to handle any helpdesk issues once the guest arrives.
