White Paper Abstract:
The promise of wireless mobility has encouraged IT executives to seriously consider its many business benefits. But before making the leap, chief information officers seek to clearly understand the full impact that wireless LAN mobility services will have on their organizations. Common questions focus on the ongoing management of existing and emerging mobile technologies, the impact of mobility on enterprise security, and the cost. To address these challenges, a growing number of companies are working with Cisco® Systems to turn existing infrastructures into intelligent infrastructures that unify wireless and wired networks. Organizations can then securely and cost-effectively extend mobility services across a variety of mediums and devices. This enterprise wide architecture approach reduces operational costs and security threats as it increases the user's ability to access resources wirelessly.
