The devices are clamped on cables to prevent the possibility of tampering, manipulating, or overwriting existing information, which is collected and assessed at designated end-points. The tamper-proof FortiFi solution prevents the physical removal of cables or opening of ports by unauthorized staff, while its alerting system emits distinct audio notifications within seconds of being touched. In addition, the FortiFi hardware maintains records of device manipulation attempts, which can be used when required. The solution distinguishes between people who need access to hardware and other critical infrastructure and those who don't. It effectively separates the duties for people requiring communication port access and enhances device accountability. While doing so, it prevents unauthorized access at port level.The real-time FortiFi security ecosystem works by recording day-to-day information and replaces the previously time-taking and expensive manual inspection of end-points. Each end-point has a one-mile line-of-sight range that ensures secure communication and radio alerts across IoT sensors and devices, while the data sent from access points and end-points is effectively recorded and can be produced when needed. The rule-based functioning of the network makes it easier to trace suspicious activity and take immediate action. In addition to securing systems, Erkios Systems allows clients to track occurrences and trace records in real time by providing a user-friendly dashboard. In the face of threats, the dashboard proves beneficial by sending out immediate alerts to draw user attention to the rising concern.The FortiFi product currently caters to RJ-45 and USB Type-A ports, using DB9/COM ports as other port factors. Over time, the company aims to retain its laser focus on insider threats while continuing to expand its product portfolio so that more people can benefit from it.
