SecurLAN
Information has Become One of the Most Sought-after Commodities in the World Today.
Protecting the vital flow of data from theft and sabotage is becoming increasingly challenging for every organization: The cables used to form networks—both fiber optic and copper-based—are all vulnerable to any intruder wishing to tap into their data streams.
 
That’s why Quintron offers SecurLAN, an intrusion detection system designed to protect data networks at the physical layer.

SecurLAN protects network data by securing the network data cables. Using an advanced technology originally designed for
protecting fenced perimeters, SecurLAN fiber optic sensor cable detects vibrations from any intruder attempting to physically
access cable runs. By deploying the sensor cable alongside a network cable run, Quintron installers ensure network
data cannot be compromised or stolen in the vulnerable stretch between terminals.
 
Certified and approved for use in U.S. government Protected Distribution Systems (PDS), SecurLAN offers a cost-effective alternative to expensive data encryption and Intrusion Detection Optical Communications Systems (IDOCS). SecurLAN is ideal for use in areas of a PDS that cannot be visually monitored but still require protection at all times. Best of all, SecurLAN ties into existing network infrastructure and requires minimal cost to install and operate.
 
Whether you’re a government institution installing a PDS or just a business concerned about protecting your network from intrusion, Quintron’s SecurLAN provides complete and solid protection against unauthorized physical access to your network.
 
When considering the rising costs of installing and maintaining a data encryption system, SecurLAN offers a more effective solution for organizations seeking to protect Local Area Networks (LANs) from threats outside an organization and from threats within. Given enough time, an inside intruder can defeat an encryption system. Having distinguished itself in harsh environments across the globe, SecurLAN’s base technology never changes its performance and never gives an intruder the same opportunities to defeat the system the way encryption codes might.
 
SecurLAN® is a physical intrusion detection system designed to protect network data cables from physical tampering. The system uses an inert fiber optic cable as its sensing element.
1) The fiber optic sensor cable is deployed alongside a network cable throughout the protected area.
2) The alarm processing unit transmits laser light through the sensor cable.
3) Vibrations from intruders attempting to access the network cables disturb the pattern of conducted light in the sensor cable, triggering an alarm condition. SecurLAN instantly alerts operators to the intrusion attempt and takes automatic protective action to route information flow away from the compromised cable.
