Neutrino Distributed Wireless Sensor
The proliferation of wireless networks
has created the need for wireless tools equivalent to those used
in wired networks. These tools include packet capture and analysis,
traffic analysis, intrusion detection and location based analysis.
Monitor All (802.11a/b/g) WLAN Standards
The Neutrino Sensor is a surveillance agent embedded
in a low cost hardware appliance. It continuously monitors 802.11b
and 802.11g in 2.4 GHz band and 802.11a in 5 GHz band. Sensors can
be deployed in branch offices, accessed across the public Internet
and through multiple firewalls. Sensors also support 802.3af power-over-ethernet
which allows operation without a nearby power outlet.
The Neutrino Sensor performs packet analysis and statistics
collection. The results of the packet analysis are periodically
forwarded over the Ethernet network to a Management Applicaton.
The Management Applicaton aggregates information from multiple sensors
and enforces security or operational policies.
The diagram below shows a typical installation:
|
One or more Neutrino Sensors
are deployed on the local area network. Sensors can also be
deployed in branch offices, accessed across the public Internet
and through multiple firewalls. The Management Console provides
central control and monitoring for all Sensors.

Neutrino Sensors can be used in conjunction with a
wired Intrusion Detection System (IDS), such as Snort.
If a wired IDS is used then it is placed between the wireless access
points and the rest of the LAN.
Neutrino Sensors are part of the Network Chemistry Wireless Intrusion
Protection System. The system also includes the Fusion
Management Application. Fusion provides instant network status visualization
and experts for the detection of wireless intrusions, such as rogue access points,
and network configuration problems.
The Neutrino Sensor is available for OEM applications.
OEM inquiries are welcome.
