NIS has released new info on their Vanguard Focus In today's world, long-haul fiber-optic infrastructure is the primary means for transmitting information globally. Whether it's a campus, a city, or beyond, the importance of monitoring this critical infrastructure cannot be understated. To address the challenges faced by long-haul infrastructure, Network Integrity Systems has developed a cutting-edge solution - the VANGUARD FOCUS infrastructure cyber security solution, utilizing Distributed Acoustic Sensing technology. DAS technology creates a sensor along the entire length of the cable, allowing any event related to that cable to be identified, tracked, and alarmed where necessary. There are various people and process-related risks that long-haul infrastructure faces, such as malicious events, unplanned events, environmental events, fault location issues, and documentation errors. Long-haul network outages are also extremely expensive, distracting personnel from other tasks and reducing the efficiency of the network. Distributed Acoustic Sensing is a game-changer in the world of long-haul infrastructure. It utilizes existing fiber-optic infrastructure to create a system of sensors, allowing for continuous, automated monitoring of layer one optical infrastructure. It immediately detects an event related to the cable and/or the surrounding area. Plus the following: - Differentiates between events - Identifies the event's exact location - Prioritizes response, and provides a detailed map of the cabling environment/path - Allows for virtual segmenting for different risk areas. Network Integrity Systems' VANGUARD FOCUS is a network infrastructure cyber security solution utilizing state-of-the-art Distributed Acoustic Sensing technology Providing a long-range capability and pinpointing the location of any physical disturbance to communications cables anywhere along those Find Out More At https://www.networkintegritysystems.com/
