Active Shield
Project information
ActiveShield detects the presence of a Rogue BTS to ensure awareness of surrounding threats, locates the attackers and disrupts their operation
Rogue Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) have been a threat to private cellular communication for years, making devices vulnerable to eavesdropping, location pinpointing, denial of service and to being a weak link in an overarching cybersecurity chain. Despite this fact, the development of methods of protection gainst them has been lacking. This system turns the table on the attacker by shifting control to ActiveShield and enabling law enforcement agencies to be proactive against illegal interception.
The advantages of the RF expertise embedded into the design of this product are evident in the sophistication of its capabilities. When ActiveShield alerts its users of interception, it provides detailed technical parameters that allow for educated deduction regarding the attacker. Furthermore, it pinpoints the exact location of the attackers and allows for proactive prevention of the Rogue BTS.
Main Features :
- The three elemental components of the system include detection, prevention and location of the rogue cell, which can be mixed and matched for optimal use.
- Supports 2G/3G/4G/5G cellular technologies
- Alerts on either the system HW’s interface or mobile phone application Protection.
- Centralized control: one command and control for either one or multiple units.
- Aerial Potential: Has the payload to be deployed aerially (i.e. Drone-based).
- Use Cases: VIP Protection, Convoy Protection, Perimeter Protection, and Critical Infrastructure.
