The push to enterprise wireless LANS is inevitable. However, WLANS are
inherently more vulnerable to external hacker attacks, even with a VPN.
That’s why the RFprotect Distributed Wireless Intrusion Protection
System is indispensable. It’s a complete security monitoring solution
that protects your information assets from current and emerging
wireless threats.
This wireless rogue protection system from
JDS Uniphase, formerly Acterna, is available locally from Comtest, who
was recently appointed sole representative for this range in southern
Africa.
RFprotect secures the enterprise from all types of
wireless rogues. Beyond rogue AP detection, the system identifies and
assesses the threat level of rogue clients, neighbouring WLANS, ad hoc
networks and software APs. Use RFshield technology to actively block
high-risk rogues.
RFprotect scans for suspicious activities
across your entire geography, reporting attacks so you can respond
before damage is done. Use the software’s detection, locationing and
mapping functions to quickly hunt down malicious devices.
Best
practice WLAN security policies reduce vulnerabilities that hackers can
exploit. RFprotect tells you when security policy is violated. Its
integral relational database and reporting engine automates the
pass/fail validation of custom or industry security policies.
RFprotect provides real-time updates of who’s using your WLAN. See all
the access points and clients around your physical infrastructure –
who’s associating to who and what’s being sent over the WLAN.
When network problems are suspected, use RFprotect to drill down on any
AP or client. Launch advanced diagnostics to troubleshoot using per
station details, RF environmental analysis and full 7-layer traffic
analysis.
