A captive portal is a user-facing web page or network gateway that requires users to complete an authentication process before they are granted access to the internet or other network resources. This functionality is implemented in public Wi-Fi networks, such as hotels, airports, and cafes, to regulate usage and ensure security. The rapid increase in smartphone usage and pervasive adoption of Wi-Fi-enabled devices has created a demand for secure and reliable public internet access points. However, inadequate internet connectivity or low bandwidth can impact the user experience adversely, limiting the effectiveness of captive portals for businesses. Nevertheless, advancements in cloud computing technologies are expected to create new prospects for businesses seeking cost-effective captive portal solutions through software-as-a-service (SaaS) models.
