OmniSwitch is the switch of choice to deliver the 零信任网络安全 governments demand.
In today’s high-tech world cybersecurity has become one of the federal government’s most critical concerns — particularly in light of the recent incursions into U.S. 国家和流氓的基础设施. 是否在窃取用户, employee, customer, or taxpayer data, 或者挟持整个公司网络勒索赎金, the critical nature of cybersecurity is front and center and with it, the recognition that networks once thought secure — are probably no longer.
For U.S. 政府部门及机构, 使用最安全的设备, 已经变得不仅关键了吗, 但现在是生存的问题. For agencies to continue to operate and to support the missions they are assigned, 必须正面应对网络攻击.
In fact, cybersecurity has become so critical, an advanced micro-segmentation, 零信任网络安全 建筑已经成为“黄金标准” LAN networking.
The ALE approach
Fortunately, the 阿尔卡特朗讯OmniSwitch®系列产品 站在网络安全的前沿, delivering the capabilities required to ensure federal and critical networks have the security required to meet today’s challenges. The OmniSwitch family serves critical needs in civilian and defense networks supporting aircraft landing systems, 核电站运行, 关键的导航系统和高质量, real-time video surveillance for both security and new operational management models. Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitches have been embedded in federal networks for more than 20 years without a single security incident report. Combined with the OmniSwitch’s extreme durability (confirmed by multiple destructive barge tests), these performance characteristics are just part of the reason the OmniSwitch is JITC Certified, on the Department of Defense (DoD) Approved Product List (APL), 并部署在整个 U.S. Navy.
简单性是一种安全特性
This is true because simplicity reduces the potential for errors which can leave areas vulnerable. We believe the easier it is to operate and manage a network, 它的自动化程度越高, and the fewer steps or systems needed to support the network, 网络越安全. The OmniSwitch also takes simplicity to the next level with:
•无需购买和跟踪软件包
• JITC approved switches
•保护操作系统和管理模块
• IoT containment for unapproved devices
•单一管理系统
•操作在线速率速度
• Multicast capability with SPB and wire-rate speeds for top-tier video
超越安全标准
The OmniSwitch is designed with a number of capabilities embedded to assure network security. One of the most critical is the Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise secure code. Secure code goes above and beyond the required standards with the goal to deliver what may be the most secure switch available today. ALE’s secure code provides independent verification and validation (IVV) with source code analysis, 白盒和黑盒测试, as well as searching for vulnerabilities in external interfaces by a company specialised in cybersecurity. Additionally, the company performing the validation testing retains the AOS code after validation testing and, over a secure connection, is able to provide the software directly to specific government customers.
Additional security is provided through software diversification. The ALE software implements address space layout randomisation (ASLR). Each switch boot dynamically generates a unique memory layout.
Products are also securely delivered through the ALE U.S. supply chain process, which designates OmniSwitch models as TAA Country of Origin (CoO) U.S. 所有的操作软件都装在U.S. -based facility.
这些步骤-独立软件验证, software diversification and secure delivery of software products — which are unique to ALE, bring a new level of security and confidence to network switch standards.
Bringing it all together
The 阿尔卡特朗讯OmniVista®网络管理 single management system oversees the entire network including data center, edge, wireless and other vendor switches. All ALE switches can be updated with the latest code at the same time with a single action. The OmniVista Unified Policy Authentication Management module is a unified access management platform that includes both a customisable captive portal and a RADIUS server, 并启用多种身份验证方法, 在零信任网络架构中至关重要.
Many real-time networks that operate in extreme environments, use the OmniSwitch ‘市场上最坚固的开关,也是唯一支持SPB的硬化交换机. Today’s federal networks are likely to have multiple locations that require support in extreme environments. The OmniSwitch is a full-featured hardened switch — with all the capabilities of other switches in the network.
Keeping it simple for government agencies means one operating system, one management system, 安全代码和持久性. OmniSwitches have combined these elements to support the U.S. 在海军工作了20多年, 提供最低的总拥有成本(TCO), with what we believe may be the most secure switch on the market.
