Cybera Launches Wireless Intrusion Detection Service

SaaS simplifies PCI compliance

FRANKLIN, Tenn. -- Cybera, a leading security as a service provider, has announced the national launch of SECURE|WAVE, its wireless intrusion detection service that identifies threats and vulnerabilities by analyzing wireless network traffic. Designed for enterprise customers in the retail, restaurant, convenience and healthcare industries, Cybera's solution assists organizations with meeting the requirements for PCI-DSS compliance.

"Wireless security is a significant vulnerability for enterprises and meeting the PCI-DSS rogue wireless security requirements has proven [image-nocss] to be confusing for many merchants," said Dan Glennon, senior vice president of marketing and strategy at Cybera. "Cybera's SECURE|WAVE wireless intrusion detection service provides a simple and affordable means for enterprises to meet the latest PCI-DSS requirements."

Cybera's SECURE|WAVE wireless IDS features include: Minimal capital costs, with low annualized service fees. Dedicated wireless sensor that captures in real-time all wireless access points, clients, connections and logs all wireless activity and threats to hosted servers. SCW-201 appliance that supports 802.11a,b,g,n protocols on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Standardized PCI reporting optimized for multi-location enterprises (overall and per location). Automatic self configuration allows for simple, plug-and-play deployment. Hosted security information and event management (SIEM) analyzes events to identify threats, generates automatic alerts and provides historical audit trail for at least 12 months. Customer reports and management integrated into Cybera's SMART|VIEW customer portal. Optional on-site integration, installation and support. Cybera's SECURE|WAVE wireless IDS provides merchants with complete visibility over the wireless airspace, delivering the same standard of security for wireless networks as wired networks. Through real-time wireless scanning, Cybera monitors and alerts customers of potential security threats.

The security as a service (SaaS) model greatly reduces the cost of deployment by eliminating the need for expensive equipment, network storage and reporting software, the company said. Through self-configuring remote sensors, the solution seamlessly integrates with any enterprise network based on internet or private access.

Through continuous updates and application development, Cybera helps ensure that its customers stay ahead of evolving security standards, and it defends against the latest threats. As new security services and features are added, the value of the overall solution multiplies without additional infrastructure spending, the company added.

In addition to wireless intrusion detection services, Cybera's portfolio of SaaS solutions includes services such as secure connectivity, intrusion detection and security information and event management. All security solutions are fully managed and monitored by Cybera's 24x7x365 Security Operations Center.
