Hospitality & Retail
Providing a High Level of Service Cost-Effectively
Wi-Fi is now the top amenity customers want. It’s mandatory for businesses to provide a high level of service cost-effectively. While most hospitality organizations have deployed Wi-Fi, having it available is just the first step. Ensuring a secure and reliable Internet connection for all users is the real difference between Wi-Fi being a success or failure.
With Edge Threat Management, providing a secure and reliable wireless connection is simple and the benefits are clear. Customers will have the convenience to safely go online wherever they are located on the property. Basic Internet access can be provided for free, and if higher bandwidth is needed, tiered service offerings can be made available. For back-office operations, businesses can prioritize Internet traffic for reservation systems, administration tools, point-of-sale and more to provide a high level of service regardless of where the transaction occurs.
NG Firewall has everything I need to protect my retail and corporate networks. The solution is very user-friendly, and the customizations I need don’t require professional services—a huge plus in my book.

Protecting Retail Purchases and Customer Information
Mobile payments, including ApplePay, GooglePay, and CashApp have become increasingly popular among shoppers and retailers alike. Customers gain the ease of use by paying for their purchases with their mobile device, and retailers can declutter their payment station with streamlined payment terminals. However, protecting these transactions is crucial.
As a small business preparing for an influx in mobile payment technologies, securing your network is critical. With Edge Threat Management’s multifaceted security solution, retail owners and employees can provide their customers with streamlined, and protected purchases both online and in person.
