AirStop Multiport Edition 2.5.0

Designed for small-medium business and enterprise environments, AirStop® Multiport ensures that:

* Only a single communication adapter can be used during a given computing session. This setup protects the corporate network from "Wireless Bridging" attacks.

* Simultaneous connection between a computer logged into the network and outsiders are prevented, thereby eliminating any unintended bridges to mission-critical servers and confidential information.

If AirStop Multiport senses the use of a wired Ethernet connection, it automatically disables all other communications adapters. Such a situation is common both in the office environment as well as on the road.

In the office, a laptop may automatically set up a connection - without the intention of its owner - to one of the public WiFi networks, such as the one provided by the local café in the building. An alternate scenario may be hackers actively looking for a 'back door' into the company by dialing into an unsuspecting employee's installed fax/modem.

Ouside the office, a tablet PC - such as the ones installed in police patrol cars - often provide hackers a 3G gateway that they can exploit to access the central command station's entire communications network. Once the Ethernet plug is removed, all adapters are immediately enabled and return to their previous states.
