Continuous Network Connectivity for Critical Operations

Highway 9 Mobile Cloud delivers reliable, secure, and prioritized connectivity for essential operations in any crisis or compliance-driven enterprise scenarios.

Ensuring Business Continuity

Consistent, regular and uninterrupted communication is imperative to the continuity of modern business operations when facing adverse conditions such as natural disasters, cyber-attacks such as ransomware, or network failure events arising from human error.

Highway 9 Mobile Cloud ensures priority connectivity, enabling essential personnel to stay connected even when public or campus networks are degraded, congested, or quarantined.

Highway 9 Solution

The Highway 9 Mobile Cloud ensures critical personnel stay connected, even when networks are degraded, congested, or under threat. The solution provides Virtual Mobility Zones (VMZ) for essential workers, isolating them from the existing campus network and enabling them to continuously and securely communicate when issues arise. Virtual Mobility Zones (VMZ) in Highway 9 Mobile Cloud enable the creation of private segments within virtual mobile networks, offering user segmentation, application isolation, and quality of service. VMZ allows organizations to utilize a private mobile network while enhancing security and ensuring compliance with enterprise IT policies and regulations.

Additionally, in high-traffic venues, it enables priority mobile services for critical users and OT systems, ensuring consistent communication unaffected by congestion on public or Wi-Fi networks.

Key Benefits

Continuity in operations

Reliable communications are a must when natural disasters or man-made crisis like ransomware attacks hit. Highway 9 Mobile Cloud and its Virtual Mobility Zones (VMZ) can compartmentalize essential workers such as security, facilities and NetOps teams from the existing campus network, enabling them to continuously and securely communicate when issues arise.

Highway 9 Mobile Cloud uses strong encryption, subscriber management with a hardware key store (eSIM), and strong point-of-security policy enforcement on all users and applications, making it the ideal transport for secure and continuous operations.

Prioritize critical users and apps

The dedicated mobile spectrum and VMZs can be leveraged for maintaining critical communications and create separate networks tailored to specific use cases.

For example: this can support uninterrupted connectivity for mass gatherings in large venues like stadiums separate networks for point of sale systems vs general shopping, and separate automation systems or supply chain networks in industrial settings. Highway 9 Mobile Cloud can be used to easily migrate key equipment like operating technology (OT) and critical users to a prioritized wireless service.

Continuity = Simplified compliance

Air-gapped mobile networks deployed through the Highway 9 Mobile Cloud can reduce the time and cost of reaching regulatory compliance mandates making it essential for industries with strict regulatory requirements.

This mitigating control can be applied to PCI point-of-sale credit card processing in retail and HIPAA-compliant healthcare environments where a separate mobile network avoids the need to put an entire campus network in scope.
