New program update for Protégé GX available
Implementing 802.1x network security on an enterprise network protects data and equipment from cyberattack. All critical infrastructures require reinforced authentication of all devices transiting on their network.
The idea that someone could launch a cyberattack from within your corporate walls is real. That’s where the 802.1x network security protocol comes in to play:
CIAS was always at the avant-garde in the PIDS industry and once again proactively delivers solutions to be able to use our state-of-the art sensors on a secured LAN with our complete range of IP interfaces.
The 802.1X-2001 standard provides an authentication mechanism to devices wishing to attach to a LAN or WLAN, by defining a data link between the client, such as a laptop, and the network, such as an Ethernet switch or wireless access point, and can allow or block network traffic between the two.
The client device (i.e. the Supplicant ) is not allowed access through the Authenticator to the protected side of the network until the Supplicant’s identity has been validated and authorized, with credential which could include a user name/password or a permitted digital certificate.
Having authentication according to 802.1X on IP-DOORWAY interface allows all CIAS digital devices (mW barriers and single-head radar) to be connected to an ethernet network that requires it, while the fence sensor system SIOUX MEMS PRO2 (native ethernet) have it on board.
CIAS #NextGenPIDS solutions have been used on the most sensitive sites around the globe for almost 50 years because of their reliability, ease of use and compliance with the strongest requirements.
