Finjan Delivers Top-Flight Web Security to Munich Airport

Overview The "Franz-Josef-Strauss-Airport" in Munich is the second largest airport in Germany. Downtime of information systems, due to any reason, can wreak havoc with flight schedules and spoil the passenger experience. High availability dictates proactive security, since web-based attacks and undetected malicious code may compromise information systems and crash user terminals. After a comprehensive evaluation phase involving several different vendors, Munich Airport chose to work with Finjan and its local reseller, Controlware. Finjan's proactive Vital Security Web Appliance blocked all of the attack scenarios created by Munich Airport in the evaluation phase.
