Why Your Business Wi-Fi and Personal Wi-Fi Should Always Be Separate

If customers, guests, or personal devices are connecting to the same Wi-Fi as your business systems, you have a serious security problem. Here's why separating your networks is one of the most important things you can do.

The solution: network segmentation

A properly segmented small business network includes three zones: a business network for computers and servers, an IoT network for printers and cameras, and a guest network for customers and personal devices.

Benefits beyond security

• Better performance — guest traffic no longer competes with business traffic

• Easier compliance with data protection regulations

• Cleaner network management and visibility into connected devices
