13 December 2024

As businesses in Australia grow their digital capabilities, the need for secure and localised data handling is more critical than ever. With data privacy laws becoming stricter, many Australian companies now prioritise data sovereignty to ensure that sensitive data is well-stored and managed within the region.

As we speak, companies are increasingly turning to localised solutions like Sierra Wireless’s newly launched regional instance in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) to strengthen their data control and connectivity.

Data Sovereignty Solutions: Sierra Wireless’s APAC Regional Instance

Sierra Wireless has introduced an Australian instance of its AirLink® Management Service (ALMS), a cloud platform for managing AirLink routers, that brings essential data sovereignty solutions to businesses operating across Australia and New Zealand.

The new instance is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and spans multiple availability zones, enhancing security and resilience. This setup ensures that data is processed within Australia. By doing so, it helps companies comply with local regulations and align with data residency requirements.

ALMS provides an array of tools to streamline and secure remote site connectivity:

  • Remote Router Registration and Configuration: Australian businesses can register and configure wireless routers at scale to facilitate efficient network setup across multiple locations.
  • Real-Time Monitoring: ALMS offers interactive dashboards for proactive monitoring and gives companies insight into network performance and security.
  • Over-the-Air Updates: Firmware updates and security patches can be deployed remotely. The updates are critical for ensuring routers are always protected against the latest security threats.

The Critical Role of Wireless Connectivity

Solutions like remote site connectivity and wireless router monitoring enable businesses to maintain secure and reliable networks, even across dispersed locations. Sierra Wireless’s AirLink routers support both 4G and 5G connectivity and provide the speed and reliability needed to stay competitive while safeguarding data.

Wireless routers and their remote monitoring capabilities are crucial for businesses that need constant and secure access to their data. For Australian businesses prioritising data sovereignty, Sierra Wireless’s local instance not only secures data handling but also provides a responsive and adaptive network infrastructure for remote connectivity.
