AirTight Networks

The firm specialized in wireless security and compliance solutions, gaining early traction with clients like McDonald's. Its core product was a wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS) that could detect, classify, block, and locate wireless threats. The business operated on a subscription-based model for its cloud-based services, offering hosted wireless security and compliance solutions. This model provided clients with 24/7 monitoring, security dashboards, and real-time alerts without the need for significant upfront capital expenditure on hardware. The company targeted a wide range of sectors, including finance, government, retail, and healthcare.

AirTight's product suite included the SpectraGuard WIPS family and AirTight Cloud Services, which delivered controller-less WLAN access and PCI wireless compliance in a single device. A key feature was its dual-radio access points that could function simultaneously as a Wi-Fi access point and a dedicated WIPS sensor, providing continuous threat detection. In January 2016, AirTight Networks rebranded to Mojo Networks to reflect a broader focus on cloud-managed Wi-Fi services, moving beyond just security. This strategic shift was driven by customer demand and the growing market for cloud-managed WLAN services. The company was ultimately acquired by Arista Networks in August 2018.
