Q&A
Why A NOC Architecture? Security architecture keeps the handheld outside the firewall Reduces need for centrally managed anti-virus, client firewall, patch management Middleware is separate from Email infrastructure TI upgrades our exchange infrastructure on a 2-year cycle  Mobile middleware needs to be upgraded twice a year    Management architecture Centralized management from a single point Over-The-Air activation and upgrades
Why not WLAN support  on mobile devices? An active WLAN radio allows layer 3 (IP) inside the TI firewall PEAP while inside TI, VPN while outside TI The IT Security policy is to either Keep the device outside the firewall, or Enforce and guarantee the installation of  Managed anti-virus Managed client firewall Managed security patch update Managed device password policy enforcement software Mobile devices are outside the firewall Inside-the-firewall support would cost Two more TI headcount Three more CHD contractors 18 months to implement Over $300k in software and hardware for 1000 units PEAP/VPN access to TI has a more difficult user experience The plan is to disable the WLAN radio with by the end of 3Q before supporting WLAN devices
