With built-in forensic support and industry standard reports for PCI, HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, GLBA, FDIC and DOD, Motorola’s Wireless Intrusion Protection System (IPS) provides powerful tools for standards compliance, as well as around-the-clock 802.11a/b/g wireless network security in a distributed environment. It allows administrators to identify and accurately locate attacks, rogue devices, and network vulnerabilities in real time and permits both wired and wireless lockdown of wireless device connections. Tightly integrated when used as an optional component of Motorola’s RF Management Suite, it shares a common interface, allowing the network administrator to access all administrative functions through a single control panel.
Integrated policy enforcement provides instant notification and response based on policy violations, while the vulnerability assessment feature identifies network weaknesses, such as misconfigured devices and weak encryption implementations.
Triangulation-based locationing capabilities enable IT staff to quickly and accurately pinpoint the location of any device on the network and initiate security measures to neutralize threats. Additionally, Motorola’s dual-radio sensor technology eliminates blind spots and greatly increases the reliability of the Wireless IPS System. In other systems, blind spots occur due to the brief lapse in time when scanning occurs on other channels. Motorola’s ability to scan 802.11b/g and 802.11a channels simultaneously, as well as the capability for multiple sensors to participate in the termination of a wireless connection, virtually eliminates this vulnerability and increases your overall level of security.
Traditional intrusion protection systems rely on a distributed architecture with fat sensors that increase costs, or a centralized architecture where sensors forward all unprocessed data to the server resulting in high bandwidth utilization. The unique architecture of Motorola’s Wireless IPS provides the best of both worlds, splitting data analysis between sensor and server. Monitoring data is filtered by intelligent sensors, which identify and forward only essential security information to the server. Bandwidth requirements are minimized, providing scalability for distributed environments. The analysis of events is highly accurate due to the aggregation and correlation of critical information collected by the sensors, which is encrypted and securely transferred to the server. The result is a highly accurate, efficient and secure monitoring system.
Motorola’s unique cost-effective architecture also provides flexible deployment options, allowing administrators the flexibility to deploy Motorola AP300s as dedicated sensors to monitor network traffic or as access ports to carry 802.11a/b/g network traffic for Motorola’s Wireless Switches.
