Done Right T H E E NTE RASY S DIFF ERE NCE Unified Management, Automatic Policy, Service Guarantee Mobile IAM provides important unique advantages which translate into greater IT control and a better user experience. It provides granular wireless-wired network bandwidth allocation, and specific quality of service priorities for devices by device, user, location and application. This means, for example, that in a lecture or presentation setting the teacher can have the highest priority quality of service (QoS), higher bandwidth may be allotted for essential applications and only limited bandwidth allocated for irrelevant applications. Mobile IAM enforces policies at the entry point into the infrastructure eliminating resource wastage and optimizing wireless and wired network bandwidth. Enforcing policy at the entry point also frees up network resources for increased device scalability without having to add or overprovision network resources. Mobile IAM simplifies IT operations with its intelligent automated provisioning and policy enforcement. In contrast, alternative BYOD solutions are a complex array of separately priced products and product sub-components for a more expensive solution that is not integrated to this sophisticated level of unified wired/wireless visibility and control. The value of Enterasys Mobile IAM, BYOD Done Right is the ability to embrace BYOD with the knowledge that your solution is secure, scalable and delivers a demonstrably superior user experience. Users experience simple one-step onboarding, predictable application delivery and the flexibility to use any device. No flood of tickets to the help desk.

MOBILE IAM VERTICAL MARKETS Education + Mobile IAM for K-12 Education Pressure for Bring-Your-Own-Device has been especially strong among K-12 schools. Cost pressures, parent and student demand, new styles of teaching, and on-line testing have all had an important role in driving this need. At the same time, insuring compliance with Acceptible Use Policy (AUP) and the Children s Internet Protection Act (CIPA), as well as maintaining security and preventing inequities without taxing the school s limited IT resources, present major challenges in implementing BYOD for K-12 schools. Enterasys Mobile IAM controls access based on user, device, location, application in fact, it can take into account up to 50 different considerations. So a teacher using video for classroom instruction can get high bandwidth, while students in the cafeteria may be limited in their YouTube viewing. High bandwidth can also be provided for VDI use by the staff, while entertainment devices such PlayStation Portable may be barred from the network entirely. All this is easily managed by the IT staff without additional resources. Mobile IAM provides a single pane of glass for network management including BYOD device management. Teachers and students can be automatically provisioned when they first bring their devices to school. Network usage is simply monitored by user, device, location, and application to insure full compliance with AUP and CIPA.

Healthcare Mobile IAM for Higher Education Higher Education has some of the highest demand for Bring Your Own Device, but also faces the greatest risks and challenges in implementing it. Faculty, staff, students, and parents all demand permission to bring and use personal wireless devices on campus. The typical college student today has between two and five personal devices, including smartphone, music player, pc, tablet, and portable game console. In the face of this device invasion, the valuable campus network resources and data must be protected from unauthorized and malicious use. Enterasys Mobile IAM enables BYOD with complete security for the campus network and data. The context-based policy engine controls network usage based on up to 50 factors including user, device, location, and application. So high bandwidth can be provided to staff and students using VDI. High bandwidth can also be allocated to video for instructional use. Global classrooms on remote campuses as well as distance learning in general are fully supported. But administrative information is fully protected. Enterasys guarantees the Mobile IAM implementation; it is smooth to install and won t require any additional staffing to the already-stretched higher education IT department. The network and all devices are managed with a single pane of glass. Devices can be automatically provisioned based on the pre-determined policy.

Mobile IAM for Healthcare The integration of wireless into the clinical workflow has brought an avalanche of new devices to hospitals tablets, biomedical devices, workstations on wheels, smart phones, VoIP wireless handsets putting the burden on IT to successfully manage patient care and staff-owned voice, video and data devices. Along with these devices comes the demand for anytime, anywhere patient and clinician access. Reliable and scalable mobile solutions are of paramount importance to hospitals, both large and small. Success will be based on their ability to deliver a consistent user experience. Today 80% of physicians own tablets and are seeking to use them in the workplace. Unrestricted usage could jeopardize private patient information as well as place an unacceptable burden on the network. Similarly, both patients and guests request to use their personal wireless devices while they are in the hospital. All of these devices potentially share a network environment with critical hospital wireless devices including location tracking systems, telemetry, and biomed devices; each with their independent needs for security, quality of service, data access, and bandwidth. With Enterasys Mobile IAM network resources are allocated based on up to 50 different considerations, including user, device type, location, and application. This means that a doctor can get high bandwidth to his ipad for VDI and video. He ll be able to securely check on patient data. Biomed devices will get high priority and the bandwidth that they need. Guests can easily log on to the network, but their bandwidth will be controlled and they will get no access to hospital data and devices. And all of these capabilities are simply managed with a single pane of glass, without putting additional demands on the hospital s limited IT resources.
