The Ekahau Sidekick 2 and Optimizer deliver elevated performance and robust wireless security. The Sidekick 2 enables IT teams to easily collect data about the network environment, detecting any rogue access points (APs) and sources of interference that bypass security controls. Once detected, Ekahau shows their exact locations on site floor plans, so you can quickly find them and track them down. By finding and removing rogue APs, networking teams can close important wireless vulnerabilities. The Sidekick 2 also locates sources of Radio Frequency (RF) interference which can disrupt signals and create openings for attackers.

Just Two Simple Steps to Optimize Networks With Ekahau

1. Walk the network site with the Sidekick 2 to collect data. 

Not only is it super powerful, but the Sidekick 2 is super easy to use. Just plug the Sidekick 2 into your phone or tablet, sling it over your shoulder and go for a walk around the site. Sidekick 2 ensures awesome wireless performance and security, whether you’re a wireless networking pro or are brand new to Wi-Fi.

2.  After walking the network site with the Sidekick 2, Ekahau Optimizer analyzes the data and recommends instant improvements to configurations for both maximum performance and security.

It checks your wireless network’s security methods against best practices and gives easy, step-by-step instructions to fix security vulnerabilities.

According to security expert Phil Morgan, “The Sidekick 2 gives you the fundamental performance of a wireless intrusion protection system out of the box. You can detect what's normal versus abnormal and remove sources of interference.”

Investing in Ekahau's Sidekick 2 and Optimizer is one of the smartest moves an IT team can make for wireless security! Leveraging these tools lets networking teams identify risks, resolve issues and enforce policies that result in an optimized and truly secure wireless network.
