Sesame Networks provides Wi-Fi Internet Access at CBA Canadian Legal Conferrence & Expo

Ottawa, Ontario – Aug 14th, 2005 – Sesame Networks provides courtesy Wi-Fi Internet access to over 1000 attendees at the CBA Canadian Legal Conference, held Aug 14th - 16th in Vancouver. Conference attendees with a Wi-Fi enabled laptop will be able to instantly obtain a Sesame ID and access the Internet from any location within the conference site. Sesame Networks is providing the service to allow attendees to experience the power of its Courtesy Wi-Fi Internet Access Solution first hand.

Sesame Networks’ courtesy Internet access solution allows enterprises to offer low cost, trusted and instantly activated Wi-Fi Internet access for visiting employees, customers, allied professionals, suppliers, business partners, consultants, auditors, or guests. Sesame’s solution leverages its patent pending Identity Management Platform.

“The Sesame solution is a step ahead of alternative solutions because they are either too costly, too complex, or do not alleviate the security concerns with unauthenticated users,” said Tom Hope, president and chief executive officer of Sesame Networks. “The public broadband presents a large market opportunity for our solution worldwide.”

“When Sesame Networks approached us with the possibility of supplying courtesy Wi-Fi Internet access we immediately saw the value in providing this service to our conference participants,” said Jacquelyn Hoult, Marketing Director, Canadian Bar Association. “Wi-Fi Internet access for mobile users is a natural fit for the legal office. In addition to being deployed in our offices, many of our members have already deployed Sesame’s Courtesy Wi-Fi Internet Solution. Participants at the conference site will benefit from being able to browse the Internet, VPN back into their home LAN, and send email.”
