Vancouver, BC, April 23, 2015--(T-Net)--Optigo Networks announced today that it collected a coveted New Product Showcase Award last week at the 2015 International Security Conference (ISC West) in Las Vegas.
Competing against the top new products in the security industry, Optigo emerged the winner in the Convergence and Integrated Software and Solutions category with its new product, Optigo Integrity.
Optigo Integrity is an analytics engine leveraging information from Optigo's robust and flexible networking platform. Integrity uses this network information to identify threats and anomalies in a facility's deployment of smart devices. Using learning and data analytics, Optigo Integrity can notify the building or facility manager when a device acts abnormally or a network intrusion is detected.
Examples include a camera communicating with the internet or a service it shouldn't, or a sensor suddenly transmitting at unusual data rates. Integrity can even identify characteristics indicating failure of a power-over-Ethernet (PoE) device using both network and power consumption data. This allows the building operator to preventatively maintain or even replace a failing device.
“We are very excited to have our new product so well-received in front of this distinguished audience,” commented Pook-Ping Yao, CEO of Optigo Networks. “Optigo Integrity is a new way of protecting the building network from cybersecurity threats. It adds an important layer of protection and preventative maintenance when integrating new devices into the building Internet of Things.”
ISC West is the largest gathering of security professionals in North America with over 1000 exhibitors and almost 30,000 attendees. The New Product Showcase Awards recognizes the newest innovations in the industry across a range of categories.
