There is no secret that many organizations have invested untold sums of money in the costly
implementation of perimeter security components. These systems, it is commonly believed,
have been installed to protect the life blood of the company from intrusions via external
networks such as the Internet, external providers or, any type of network with a different
security classification.

Fact is however, that with the advances in the wireless communications with such
components as: Bluetooth, 3g USB modems, 3rd generation ‘phone, and more,
non of these ‘dinosaur’ Circumference systems is capable of preventing the connectivity
of any organizational computer or any available networks out there while they are still
onnected to the organization’s network.

One simple and innocent ‘click’ of a mouse and your network security has been compromised
becoming free for all. It doesn’t have to be a malicious ‘hacker’ anymore to strip your company
from its network protection; it can be your most trusted employee who opens ‘Pandora’s Box’.

One ‘click’ by the unaware organizational user who simply responded to the common,
innocent message saying that: “...Wireless networks detected...”, and your network
is ‘shared’ with the whole internet world out there. Fact is, that any of your staff’s
authorized computers can potentially become a ‘router’ and therefore bypass your main
organizational firewall.

There are some solutions for this problem in the form of an ‘agent-device’ to be installed
at the end station. These solutions proved to be extreme and complex in the assimilation
process at the deployment and maintenance aspects. In addition, it is inconceivable if not
ridiculous for the end station to be the factor policing itself and the one approving its access
and working order.
