Built for Real-World Networks

From school districts to healthcare systems, organizations trust Warden to secure network access without the complexity.

Education

K-12 School Districts

Secure wireless for students, staff, and guests without overwhelming your IT team.

The Challenge

School districts face a unique set of pressures: limited IT staff, tight budgets, thousands of devices (many BYOD), compliance requirements like CIPA, and users who range from kindergarteners to veteran teachers. Traditional NAC solutions are overkill for most districts, yet doing nothing isn't an option when student data is at stake.

How Warden Helps

Role-Based Network Access

Different VLANs and policies for students, teachers, staff, and guests. Students get filtered internet; staff get full access to admin systems.

Active Directory / Google Workspace Integration

Sync with your existing student information system. When a student enrolls or a teacher leaves, access updates automatically.

Simple 1:1 Device Management

Chromebooks, iPads, Windows laptops: authenticate them all against your directory without complex certificate deployment.

Audit Trail for Compliance

Know who was on your network and when. Essential for E-Rate documentation and incident response.

"We went from spending days troubleshooting authentication issues to having a system that just works. Our small IT team can actually focus on supporting teachers instead of fighting with NAC."

Education

Higher Education

Eduroam-ready authentication for complex campus environments.

The Challenge

Universities operate some of the most demanding network environments: diverse user populations (students, faculty, researchers, visitors), sensitive research data, legacy systems, eduroam federation requirements, and residential networks that rival small ISPs. And everyone expects it to "just work" like their home WiFi.

How Warden Helps

Eduroam Compatible

Standard RADIUS implementation works seamlessly with eduroam federation. Your students can roam to other institutions without extra configuration.

Multi-Realm Support

Different authentication realms for students, faculty, staff, contractors, and visiting researchers, each with appropriate access levels.

LDAP Integration with Any Directory

Works with Active Directory, OpenLDAP, FreeIPA, or your custom campus directory. Multiple directory sources supported simultaneously.

Research Network Segmentation

Isolate sensitive research networks with specific access policies. Meet grant compliance requirements without network redesign.

VPN for Remote Access

Same credentials work for campus WiFi and VPN access. Students and faculty get seamless access whether on-campus or remote.

Healthcare

Healthcare & Medical

HIPAA-conscious network access control for clinical environments.

The Challenge

Healthcare networks must balance security with accessibility. Clinicians need instant access to patient data; biomedical devices need network connectivity; patients and visitors expect guest WiFi. All while maintaining HIPAA compliance and ensuring that a misconfigured device can't become a ransomware vector.

How Warden Helps

Clinical Network Segmentation

Separate networks for clinical systems, biomedical devices, administrative staff, and patient/guest access. Each segment with appropriate controls.

Comprehensive Audit Logging

Every authentication attempt logged with timestamp, user, device, and result. Essential for HIPAA audit trails and security investigations.

Two-Factor Authentication

Add TOTP-based 2FA for access to sensitive network segments. Protect against credential compromise without disrupting clinical workflows.

Time-Based Access Policies

Contractor access that automatically expires. Traveling nurse credentials valid only during their assignment period.

Compliance Ready

HIPAA HITECH SOC 2

Warden's audit logging and access controls support healthcare compliance requirements out of the box.

Enterprise

Corporate & Enterprise

Straightforward NAC for organizations that value simplicity over feature bloat.

The Challenge

Enterprise IT teams are stretched thin. They need network access control that integrates with existing infrastructure, supports remote workers, and doesn't require a dedicated team to manage. Most enterprises are paying for NAC features they'll never use while struggling with the ones they actually need.

How Warden Helps

Drop-In RADIUS Replacement

Replace your aging NPS or FreeRADIUS server with minimal disruption. Same protocols, better management interface.

Unified Wireless and VPN Auth

One system for 802.1X wireless, wired network access, and VPN authentication. Consistent policies across all access methods.

Multi-Site Support

Centralized management for distributed locations. Define policies once, apply everywhere. Regional RADIUS proxying supported.

API-First Architecture

Everything available via REST API. Integrate with your ticketing system, automate provisioning, build custom workflows.

Service Providers

Managed Service Providers

Multi-tenant NAC that scales with your client base.

The Challenge

MSPs need to deliver enterprise-grade security to clients who can't afford (or don't need) enterprise-grade complexity. Managing dozens of separate NAC instances isn't sustainable, but most "multi-tenant" solutions are really just marketing speak for "buy more licenses."

How Warden Helps

True Multi-Tenancy

Logical separation between clients. Each client sees only their users, groups, and devices. One deployment serves all your clients.

Per-Client Licensing Flexibility

License pools that let you allocate users and devices across clients as needed. Scale up or down without penalty.

White-Label Ready

Present Warden as part of your managed security offering. Your branding, your client relationships.

Standardized Deployments

Container-based deployment means consistent configuration across all client sites. Infrastructure as code friendly.
