Encryption, Firewall and Network Intrusion Detection Products
VCL-2457, Rack Management and Fan Control Unit is designed to convert and transform standard equipement racks into “Smart-Racks”.
VCL Network-MouseTrαpTM is an essential network security tool that sits behind the firewall in a secure environment to detect firewall breaches and unauthorized intrusions in an IP network. VCL Network-MouseTrαpTM is a “decoy server” / “honeypot” that can be programmed by the user to emulate various types of IEDs such as Protection Relays, RTUs or Payment Gateways etc. and forms an essential part of the digital forensics kit that may be installed in secure critical infrastructure such as in Sub-Stations, Smart Grid Distribution Systems, Airport and Railway IT Networks as well as Financial Infrastructure such as Banks and Payment Processing Gateways to “alert” the network administrator of hostile intrusions and firewall breaches.
VCL’s “Beyond the Firewall” Cyber Security Solution does not negate or invalidate the role of the “Firewall” in any manner. The Firewall still remains the primary element of defence against cyber-attacks. However, cyber-attacks succeed because firewalls get breached. The deployment of VCL’s “Beyond the Firewall” Cyber Security Solution provides the “next-line-of-defence” against firewall breaches, resulting in the enhanced network security and resilience against cyber-attacks.
