Bluesocket, together with official South African distributor, Duxbury Networking, has introduced version 3.1 of its BlueSecure Intrusion Protection System, a dedicated wireless LAN monitoring and intrusion protection system for wireless-based attacks.
New features include active containment of rogue devices, advanced RF spectrum analysis, and enhanced reporting that meets deployment requirements for wireless LANs. Additionally, with a new client-server architecture, the system now offers enterprise-class scalability for larger, multi-site deployments.
"Bluesocket`s latest release of BlueSecure strengthens its ability to act against RF intrusions and disable rogue devices in real-time," says Peter Nel from Duxbury Networking. "When deployed with Bluesocket`s wireless gateways, it provides a secure wireless architecture for interoperable, multi-vendor enterprise WLAN deployments."
BlueSecure now enables the network administrators to immediately disable a device until it can be physically isolated and removed from the network, preventing both malicious APs and clients from connecting to legitimate devices before they can do damage.
"With the addition of this functionality, BlueSecure now offers comprehensive detect and protect capabilities for mitigating the threat of wireless rogue devices in both wireless and wired networks," added Nel.
The solution also analysis 802.11 RF traffic, measuring the impact of signal degradation and noise across the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
