The AirZen IT security concept offers comprehensive solutions for companies that want to provide secure and user-friendly WiFi for employees and guests. The security concept includes all important measures to maximize network security and ensure uninterrupted use. From hardware to software, AirZen relies on "Security by Design," which means that all components of the system are designed from the outset to meet the highest security requirements. Here you can learn how AirZen ensures reliable networks.

The AirZen System: Structure and Architecture

The AirZen System is based on a modular architecture and offers solutions that have been specifically developed for the needs of European companies. The AirZen platform consists of its own hardware and software, supplemented by open-source elements and OEM modules. The system exclusively supports AirZen's own access points and routers, which can be centrally managed via the AirZen cloud.

Advantages of the modular architecture:

• Flexibility: Individual components can be reconfigured or replaced as needed.

• Security through control: A clearly regulated access allows the protection of critical system areas.

• Easy maintenance: The clear code and the ability to manage separately facilitate updates and maintenance.

Security by Design: Security principles at AirZen

Security is the top priority at AirZen. The network configuration can only be read by routers, while changes are only possible via the configuration API. In addition, database access is strictly regulated by a role concept. This means that only authorized persons have access to specific system resources. The data is divided into categories and stored separately so that a higher data load in one area does not impair the performance of other critical areas.

Data protection and access controls

Compliance with the GDPR and responsible handling of sensitive data are integral parts of the AirZen security concept. AirZen uses a multi-level access control system that restricts access to important system components to specific roles such as administrators, support partners, and network users. Network users are authenticated and authorized using common identification information (e.g., MAC address).

Physical and technical security measures

All central components of AirZen are located in secured data centers to which only authorized employees have access. In addition, AirZen routers and access points are regularly checked for tampering and automatically reset if unauthorized changes are detected. There are special measures for the management and monitoring of network endpoints and VPN gateways to control data traffic and avoid overloads.

Automatic software update system

AirZen has implemented an automatic update system that checks for new software versions on a daily basis and installs them automatically as soon as they are available. This ensures that security gaps are closed promptly and new features are made directly available. Critical security updates are installed within four hours of publication to ensure maximum security.

Conclusion: Security and reliability for corporate networks

The AirZen IT security concept offers companies a comprehensive and highly secure solution for the management and operation of networks. With a well-thought-out architecture, automated updates, and strict access controls, AirZen provides its customers with a network that is flexible, secure, and easy to manage. Thanks to integration into the AirZen cloud and high security standards, the system is ideal for companies looking for a reliable and GDPR-compliant solution for their network needs.
