Trusted across public sector & education
Federal / Central Government by the numbers
Challenges & fixes
Data residency and sovereignty rules rule out most SaaS-only vendors
Federal and central government agencies frequently can't put network data in a vendor's multi-tenant cloud at all, which eliminates most modern WiFi platforms before evaluation even starts.
- ✓Self-Hosted on your VM keeps every byte inside agency-controlled infrastructure
- ✓On-Prem VM Appliance runs the identical software stack without any SaaS dependency
- ✓Data Compliance & Consent Management supports the audit trail required for accreditation
Access has to be provably tied to cleared identity, not just a password
A shared WiFi password doesn't satisfy the access control standards government facilities are required to meet, and retrofitting identity-based access onto legacy WiFi is a common accreditation blocker.
- ✓OpenX AAA ties every connection to verified identity
- ✓AAA/RADIUS-as-a-Service integrates with existing directory and credentialing systems
- ✓Zero-Touch Provisioning maintains a consistent, auditable hardware baseline
Our solutions
OpenX AAA is the open-standard RADIUS authentication layer behind every OpenX deployment — built on FreeRADIUS, with a captive portal builder in front of it, so staff and guest AAA, session accounting, and policy enforcement run hosted instead of on servers you stand up and patch yourself.
OpenX Gateway is the controller underneath Wifi-Soft's guest and staff networks — hotspot management and AAA authentication in one place, whether you run one site or a few hundred.
OpenX Cloud is an open wireless cloud controller for Enterprise, SMB, and MDU deployments, built on an open technology stack (OpenWiFi cloud SDK and AP NOS). It runs on low-cost, low-compute AP hardware from any supported ODM — no hardware vendor lock-in — with full WiFi 6/6E support and backward compatibility for WiFi 4/5. Deploy on AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean, or your own data center, as SaaS or a licensed platform.
