Even though laptops, smartphones, and tablets are perfectly suited to your mobile workers’ inflight tray table workspaces, there’s not a whole lot they can do with them if they can’t connect to the internet. And, unfortunately, inflight Wi-Fi is still a young technology. There’s no ubiquity from a technology standpoint and airlines generally rely on a variety of providers to cover their fleets.

As a result, mobile enterprise employees are often left to decide whether they want to take out their credit card and buy an expensive single-flight session or make up for lost productivity time once they land. Neither is a particularly great option.

At Syntegra, we’ve partnered with several companies to deliver the most comprehensive inflight offering on the market, with thousands of aircraft operating across dozens of the most popular airlines. This means your team will be able to stay automatically and securely connected from gate to gate.

All it takes is one employee connecting to one rogue hotspot for your organization’s entire IT infrastructure to be put at risk. While most cyber-attacks are relatively benign, the fact of the matter is more serious attacks can have extraordinary operational and reputational costs — lost business, nervous investors, indignant press coverage, etc.

While the Last Mile VPN acts as a high security gateway between a user’s device and the hotspot they are accessing, one-time password ensures that users won’t be required to enter sensitive login credentials every time they access the internet. Combined, they enable you to improve the overall security of your enterprise by defending against common cybersecurity threats, such as man-in-the-middle attacks.
