Wibiki Secures Free Wi-Fi for New Yorkers in Bryant Park

Park That Pioneered Public Wi-Fi Uses Wibiki to Give New Yorkers Secure Access to Free Wi-Fi 


NEW YORK, March 27  /PRNewswire/ -- Bryant Park has chosen Wibiki(TM)(SM) to make free Wi-Fi more secure for New Yorkers. "Wibiki's free Wi-Fi is also extra easy to use," said Daniel A. Biederman, executive director of the Bryant Park Restoration Corporation. "We love being able to take Wi-Fi to a new level. Our strategy is 'keep improving.' Wibiki helps Bryant Park keep improving our Wi-Fi services and still keep them free."

Public access to Wi-Fi is increasing in the U.S. The problem is that increasing public access can also increase the risk of identity theft for public users. When users select open unsecured access to Wi-Fi, user data can be intercepted more easily.

"Wibiki is changing that," says Wibiki CEO Shant Hovnanian. "We make it safe to share Wi-Fi. When Bryant Park patrons choose Wibiki free Wi-Fi, they are actually getting more secure access to the Internet than when they buy access from Wi-Fi hotspots!"

Wibiki also streamlines the Wi-Fi access experience. It automatically connects the user to the Internet upon command. It never asks for a user name, address or password. "Wibiki will never ask for your credit card either," adds CEO Hovnanian. "Why would it? Wibiki is software for a free Wi-Fi world."

Wibiki Inc. is a subsidiary of Speedus Corp. (NASDAQ:SPDE). Speedus is a pioneer in wireless broadband, owning both wireless spectrum and a portfolio of broadband IP. Speedus also holds controlling interests in Zargis Medical Corp. and F&B Gudtfood Holdings, Inc.
