Click Here for Pricing - ES520 - Fortress Secure Wireless Access Bridges are all-in-one network access devices with built-in security. The ES520 is ideally suited to work as a self-contained network combining the functions of an access point, Ethernet switch, and security gateway in a form factor engineered specifically for harsh outdoor environments.

Click Here for Pricing - FC-X - Fortress Security Controllers provide the link between wireless devices, users and network infrastructure. All critical security operations - encryption, authentication, data integrity checking, key exchange, and data compression - are optimized to minimize hands-on management. Available in 250, 500 or 1500Mbps configurations, the FC-X’s Selectable Performance Module allows end-users to respond to growing bandwidth needs by simply selecting the appropriate performance for their network. The FC-X Series is the flagship of the Fortress product family, setting the standard for high performance, secure and reliable wireless LANs, satellite, free space optics and fixed wireless links.

Click Here for Pricing - AF2100 - Fortress Security Gateways provide the link between wireless users and the secure network. The privacy and integrity of your corporate network resources is now a simple plug-and-play option. All critical security operations – encryption, authentication, data integrity checking, key exchange, and data compression – are optimized to minimize hands-on management. The AF2100’s small, rugged and versatile design makes this solution perfect for deployment at the edge of any network. Its durable, fan-less design made this product the choice for the U.S. Army’s Combat Service Support Automated Information System Interface (CAISI) project. Even if your requirements are less demanding, your network deserves the same level of robust security. The AF2100 can reliably provide secure service for several 802.11b access points simultaneously, or can be used in fixed wireless applications. Because Fortress products integrate into an existing network as an overlay, they can be easily deployed in any network regardless of topology, infrastructure vendor or wireless technology being used. Not tied to any particular vendor or RF protocol, the AF2100 allows the flexibility to modify your network as your wireless requirements evolve.

Click Here for Pricing - The Fortress Secure Client Bridge brings the flexibility of wireless networking to legacy and special devices without compromising security. Because any security system is only as strong as its weakest link, it makes sense to extend the same robust security to resource-constrained or legacy devices that can benefit from wireless connectivity. The Fortress Secure Client Bridge can be easily integrated into existing WLANs to create simple and secure wireless connectivity for almost any device with standard Ethernet output. The Fortress Secure Client Bridge provides authenticated, encrypted communication between a Fortress-secured network and any device that cannot, by itself, run the Fortress Secure Client Software.

Click Here for Pricing - Fortress Secure Clients are security agents that provide the same level of high assurance security across all client devices. All critical security functions - encryption, authentication, data integrity checking, key exchange, and data compression - are optimized to ensure transparent operation. The Fortress Secure Client enables devices to securely communicate with the network and peer to peer. When installed, the Fortress Secure Client creates a unique device identifier so that only authorized devices are allowed access to the network. This lightweight software agent supports the widest range of devices and operating systems. The Fortress Secure Client runs on PCs, tablets, PDAs, and industrial devices that run Windows, Windows CE, Windows Mobile, Linux or DOS. The Secure Clients are part of the Fortress Security System which includes FC-X, MaPS and WMS.

Click Here for Pricing - The Fortress Management and Policy Server (MaPS) provides centralized management for Security Gateways and Controllers. MaPS controls, configures and provides policy management for thousands of Fortress Security Gateways and Controllers across enterprise networks and remote facilities. MaPS centralizes definition and control of security services and access control policies. MaPS manages policies for role-based access control based on user, device, time of day, location, and class of service. MaPS enforces policy across the security infrastructure and centrally monitors users, devices, status and alerts. MaPS maintains a hierarchical view of the network, and centrally tracks user sessions and roaming statistics to control users, devices and traffic flow and ensure security and application performance. MaPS centralizes configuration of Fortress Gateway settings, such as encryption and authentication parameters. MaPS supports corporate Windows 2K or 2K3 platforms and can be configured for full server redundancy.

Click Here for Pricing - A Wireless Intrusion Detection System (WIDS) module is available for the Fortress ES520. This module allows one of the radios in a Fortress Es520 to function as a WIDS sensor and report to a Network Chemistry's RFprotect Server.

Click Here for Pricing - The Suite B Security Module implements a set of cryptographic algorithms specified by the National Security Agency (NSA) to provide standard, interoperable security for protecting both classified and sensitive but unclassified (SBU) information. Suite B provides a flexible, affordable and easy-to-use complement to heavily restricted Type 1 products currently used to meet U.S. government security requirements for classified information.

Click Here for Pricing - The FC-X’s Selectable Performance Module allows end-users to respond to growing bandwidth needs by simply selecting the appropriate performance for their network. With the Selectable Performance Module, the FC-X can be configured for encrypted performance of 250, 500 or 1500Mbps.

Click Here for Pricing - Fortress provides two mesh technologies, MicroMesh and MacroMesh. MicroMesh is included as a primary feature in the base ES520. MicroMesh provides the self-forming and self-healing capabilities core to any mesh architecture. MicroMesh is designed to support fixed infrastructure or portable networks. MacroMesh is designed to support large, dynamic networks with more emphasis on mobility and scalability. MacroMesh offers significant advantages over MicroMesh in terms of scalability and resiliency, which is particularly important in highly mobile environments. MacroMesh is also implemented in the Fortress software client, providing the ability to utilize not only network infrastructure devices but also user input devices such as laptops, tablets and handheld PDA’s clients to forward data and operate as part of the mesh network. These input devices can use MacroMesh to form their own ad-hoc mesh networks as well. Fortress MacroMesh possesses attributes of scalability, mobility, low overhead and dynamic self-configuration and self-administration that are unique.
