WatchGuard access points are the only solution on the market that can connect to the networks of other brands of access points to bring the whole Wi-Fi network into Trusted Wireless Environment compliance.
MIERCOM — a widely recognized company that generates industry reports based on hands-on competitive testing—recently tested a “WIPS overlay” feature by utilizing a WatchGuard AP125 as a dedicated WIPS security sensor to protect access points from Cisco Meraki, Ubiquiti, Aruba and Ruckus from all six known Wi-Fi threat categories. Adding WatchGuard access points as dedicated WIPS security sensors allows any business with any brand of existing Wi-Fi to be protected from the most common Wi-Fi hacks. Now you can create a Trusted Wireless Environment without having to replace your existing infrastructure.
Each WatchGuard access point has the flexibility to operate as both an access point and a dedicated WIPS security sensor protecting 3rd party brand access points.
Example: The WatchGuard AP125 access point is not accepting connections from any Wi-Fi client, but is there to monitor and protect the airspace 24/7/365 for Trusted Wireless Environment compliance.
