WiMetrics WiSentry Wireless Access Point Detection System
WiMetrics Corp. attempts to answer the growing problem of unauthorized access points on the corporate LAN with its new WiSentry Wireless Access Point Detection System. WiSentry uses several identification methods to detect enterprise-class access points from the likes of Cisco and Symbol, as well as consumer-class products from Linksys, SMC and others. By employing an intelligent combination of active and passive scans on the network, WiSentry's patent-pending solution scours the network passively (and without the need for radio-probe hardware) for "footprints" that are unique to wireless access points.
Available: April 30. $15,000, annual subscription, WiMetrics Corp., (877) 204-3175, (425) 557-5912. www.wimetrics.com
