## Only you can prevent Wi-Fi compromise

Wi-Fi is the backbone of corporate networking, routinely transmitting private and confidential information. Certificate-based Wi-Fi using EAP-TLS mutually authenticates clients attempting to join a network. This prevents common attacks like MAC spoofing, traffic and credential sniffing, and “evil twin” networks.

## Secure Wi-Fi networks with EAP-TLS

## Wi-Fi security so good you might dream about it

Certificates are the fastest type of Wi-Fi authentication, reducing the time it takes to join networks and improving roaming performance. Smallstep provides a fully-managed CA, RADIUS server, and everything else you need to quickly roll-out certificate-based Wi-Fi on any operating system. Lock-down access to authorized devices, and eliminate password-related support tickets.

Everything you need to upgrade your Wi-Fi to the most secure, easiest to support, compliant Wi-Fi with WPA2 Enterprise or WPA3 Enterprise standards.

## Seamless network access every time

Platform integrations leverage mobile device management (MDM) and bring your own device (BYOD) enrollment to centrally manage certificates and Wi-Fi configurations. Trusted devices can join automatically, enabling zero-touch deploy of managed devices, and saving IT teams the headache of custom configurations for every new employee.
