Secure Public Network Connectivity (SPNC)™
…enabling secure communication
over public network
Popularity and wide scale availability
of Internet has resulted in new business models for
many industries. Connectivity amongst remote locations
has become mission critical for applications such as
SCADA systems. A power supply grid requires connectivity
between the power generation units and supply channels.
Additionally it also requires connectivity at the end
users for operational verification, accounting and billing.
Gas pipeline industry and water supply systems have
similar requirements. ATMs of banks and financial institutes
also rely on connectivity for their business.
While connectivity is essential in
these markets, it is also vital to preserve the data
integrity and confidentiality of the transactions. In
the current environment, it is essential to provide
a defense against hackers. Critical infrastructures
such as water supply, power grid, and gas pipelines
are at risk to terrorist and malicious hacker attacks.
They are also vulnerable to break-ins by competition.
Financial transactions through ATMs are prime candidates
for hacking. Economics demand that secure connectivity
is provided at low cost for these applications. This
issue of economy eliminates private network as an option
for secure connectivity. Instead, these applications
need to rely on public networks such as the Internet
that are accessible globally. The problems with security
mechanisms of today are that they are bulky to implement,
require constant upgrades, and do not provide adequate
security. Dunti provides a unique solution to these
problems with Secure Public Network Connectivity™
that provides:
- Thin-client secure solution that is economical;
- Easy installation, communication, and maintenance
of multi-point secure connectivity;
- Higher level of security;
- Preclusion of frequent security upgrades;
- Detection and tracking of hack attempts; and
- Geographical awareness.
