What FSI does
Focused engagements across the wireless and security stack
Short-term, project-based, vendor-neutral. Brought in to design it right the first time, find quick fixes for existing deployments, and recommend long term solutions.
High-density Wi-Fi design
Predictive modelling, AP and antenna layout, channel and power plans, then a validation survey to prove the design against the built environment — indoor and outdoor.
AAA, RADIUS & NAC
802.1X (PEAP, EAP-TLS, PEAP-GTC), device onboarding, and policy design across Cisco ISE, Aruba ClearPass and FortiAuthenticator — including the hard part: troubleshooting the auth path that only fails at 9am.
Secure enterprise networks
Defense-in-depth firewall architecture, VRF segmentation, and campus / data-centre design — including datacentre fabrics and HA firewall clustering for resilience.
Track record
Networks that had to work on the day
Sporting events with no second chance, product launches watched live on two continents, and campuses that went on to host the world’s biggest tech companies.
How engagements work
Vendor-neutral, evidence-led, and scoped to a deliverable
No product to sell and no quota to hit — recommendations follow customer requirements, not a line card. Most engagements run a few days to a few weeks and end with a document your team can build from.
- Understand the real requirement — client mix, density, applications, roaming, and the security posture it all has to fit inside.
- Design with physics first — predictive modelling with real materials, then validate on site so the plan survives contact with the building.
- Documented — AP schedules, mounting detail, config standards, and policy framework, in a form another engineer can execute.
- Supported Migrations — available for the migration window and the post-deployment survey that confirms it landed.
