“Even though we have a standard no-wireless policy in our facilities, as soon as we installed the AirPatrol Cellular IDS system, on the first day of a classified seminar, we detected as many as 80 violations!"
Former U.S. intelligence Officer

“The powerful combination of AirPatrol’s wireless security software with Check Point award-winning products provides the market with a safe yet cost-effective way to keep pace with the demands and opportunities of a wireless world.”

AirPatrol's WLS Manager is a comprehensive security offering that enables businesses to protect sensitive data and proprietary systems against wireless-enabled network and endpoint attacks.

The proliferation of wireless technologies places business interactions, infrastructure and data at risk—even when a wireless LAN has not been ‘officially’ deployed. AirPatrol’s Wireless Locator System delivers a unified Wireless Threat Management strategy that meets the security, affordability and manageability requirements of today’s enterprises.

Monitor Vulnerabilities
WLS Manager, featuring AirPatrol’s revolutionary MapView™ technology, monitors the airwaves 24 x 7 to provide a live enterprise-wide view of network posture at a single glance. With the ability to detect and locate all authorized and unauthorized 802.11, RF and cellular devices with an accuracy of six feet or better, WLS Manager enables enterprises to proactively identify potential threats and compliance issues.

Mitigate IT Risks
WLS Manager provides the actionable intelligence network administrators need to confidently manage wireless threats to wired and wireless networks. The solution can be used as an intrusion detection solution in no-wireless environments and easily scales to protect and manage wireless networks.

OPSEC SAM API Integration for Real-time Mitigation
Through integration with the Check Point™ SMART Security Management Architecture, WLS Manager can reliably and accurately alert network administrator to wireless threats in real-time.

The instant a rogue device is detected, an automatic alert is sent. Alerts can be sent in multiple formats to multiple devices and alarm zones are configurable to eliminate false positives. Administrators receive all the intelligence they need to take immediate remedial action – including complete details of the intrusion event along with an image depicting the precise location of the offending device. Using automatic traffic blocking at the packet-level or remotely executed user initiated, timed and targeted DNS attacks, rogue devices can be effectively blocked and neutralized.

Control Access
Unlike hard-wired networks, airwaves are available to anyone with a wireless device (on a different floor, in the parking lot, or across the street), just as if they were seated at a desk in the office. Using AirPatrol's unique VirtualShield™ technology, WLS Manager enables network administrators to restrict access to wireless networks based on location – restoring the most fundamental concept of conventional network security. Administrators can easily create access zones using the intuitive MapView interface and drawing tools.

Improve Operational Efficiencies
To help businesses control costs and optimize use of resources, WLS Manager allows network administrators to quickly and effortlessly deploy and manage a Wireless Threat Management scheme. Wireless sensors can be piggybacked onto existing network infrastructure without dedicated cabling and switch ports. This approach dramatically simplifies setup and reduces the total deployment cost to less than a third of traditional approaches.

Once deployed, administrators can manage the entire wireless threat environment from a single easy-to-use console that concurrently displays all cellular, 802.11 and broadband radio devices. The visual real-time approach to security enables administrators to act quickly and remediate issues without time intensive analytical investigations. In addition, WLS Manager automatically adjusts to dynamic wireless environments without manual intervention – eliminating the extensive setup, ongoing recalibration requirements and inaccuracies of alternative solutions.
