Kron AAA has been designed by experts of the OSS, end-to-end and data security, Telco domain networks. This know-how and in-depth technical experience positions Kron AAA as a key player in the AAA market. Kron AAA fully supports any RADIUS server requirements. Preventing vendor lock-in, our AAA product is interoperable with any network gateway element (RAS, BNG, GGSN, PGW, etc.). Any manufacturer of these elements could act as RADIUS client to KRON AAA. The readily available built-in RADIUS dictionary support of Kron AAA ensures a smooth and sustainable integration for flexible authentication, authorization and accounting workflows.
Your institution might have multiple APNs.
An example would be the data connections to the sensor networks distributed over the fields to your B2B customers. Each of one these B2B customers of yours would have separate APNs due to CIDR overlap or scaling requirements. In that case a flexible AAA server would be necessary to handle the APNs individually but still shall be able to offer centralized single pane of glass of APNs under the same view as if you are monitoring a heterogeneous network. Kron AAA is flexible in multiple dimensions for IP pool management. Single pool can be distributed to multiple APNs or each APN can have its dedicated pool. Both models support dynamic or static IP address assignments.
A comprehensive AAA shall be 3GPP and IETF compliant.
The gateway system of the operator can be some well known one from the industry. In that instance Kron AAA comes forward with nearly a decade of experience accumulated both in fixed and mobile infrastructures where it has been integrated with the big network vendors of GGSN, PGW, BNG, UPF market. Moreover same is true for the rather smaller players of the market. Hence any RSA (Radius Specific Attribute) and VSA (Vendor Specific Attribute) of any vendor is compatible with Kron AAA.
Churn operations cost an effort to the SIM card owners.
Changing the service provider or the operator could be due to a technical reason such as more reliable connectivity or a financial reason. In either case the customer will have to adapt its configuration to the new service provider. These start with new AVP definitions, interim period changes for network operations and include BSS specific API integration changes in CRM workflows as well. If Kron becomes your sole AAA server, then you can handle this transition seamlessly.

The readily available built-in RADIUS dictionary support of Kron AAA ensures a smooth and sustainable integration for flexible authentication, authorization and accounting workflows.
The readily available set of APIs provided by Kron AAA fulfill the fundamental requirements for a CRM integration such as provisioning operations. Yet any environment relies on their customized workflows which must be implemented for such migration projects. Under these circumstance Kron takes a proactive and adaptive approach to comply with the existing integrations for a smooth replacement of the AAA product.
Same as for APIs, the design of the customer databases is specific to every environment. Therefore tables, schemas, triggers, detailed accounting tables for CDR purposes are examples of analysis topics before the rollout. Kron adapts itself to the existing design of the customer for these as well and plans the project management accordingly.
Service providers can offer AAA as a service on top of basics of fixed and mobile connectivity. This value adding approach adds depth into their product portfolio from a business point of view. Meanwhile it extends flexibility in AAA operations for their enterprise customers from a technical point of view. The enterprise customers can govern the secure access of the IoT system into their network, monitor their states and make design decisions based on the data displayed on their tenants. The multitenant design of Kron AAA isolates each customer from the rest, yet still centralizes the administrative operations to the service provider offering CAPEX and OPEX savings to the enterprises. With its multitenant design Kron AAA is cloud native and supports both CNF and VNF deployments at Telco grade scalability.
Corporate IoT services are continuously growing and expanding their spheres of influence.
IoT services that are used in financial organizations and banks, operation support services (OSS), and business support services (BSS) as well as SIM-card-based systems used in telecommunication companies, require secure authentication when connecting to APNs or other isolated networks. Public service companies delivering gas or electricity have tons of sensors at distributed geographical locations. APN and multi-ISP topologies are commonly seen in this scenario. Running on a Cloud environment, always being in connection with the data center, and serving more than 15 million subscribers than large-scale ISPs, Kron AAA is an exact match for these topologies.
