SHIELDS EDGE: illustration
Development under way: EDGE version
  • EDGEVersion 0.5.0 (laboratory): a readings witness and a device passport, 53 tests. No live equipment and no connection to real sites yet.

Being prepared for a pilot. Tested on a test bench and test data; not enabled for customers. No dates or commitments.

SHIELDS EDGE
In development

A guardian of your network: notices unusual behaviour of devices.

  • Cameras, printers, controllers
  • Refrigeration and climate-control equipment
  • A “physical safeguard” for dangerous commands

Details

What it protects

Devices on which protection software cannot be installed: refrigerated display cases, cameras, printers, air conditioners, controllers. EDGE sits at the network entrance and observes them.

How it works
  1. 1Discovers devices on the network passively, without scanning anything.
  2. 2Learns each device's normal behaviour: whom it talks to, when and in what volumes.
  3. 3Warns in plain words when something goes wrong.
Who it is for

Homes and small offices, shops, buildings, production sites and warehouses.

What you will see in the dashboard

A list of devices, the normal-behaviour profile, alerts and a decision log.

Plan

The module is still in development: plan contents and terms have not been defined yet.

For specialists
  • Currently a prototype tested in a laboratory on test data. A ready-made box, prices and support for specific industrial protocols are not announced.
  • Safeguard: a command outside safe limits is held until a second person confirms it. You enable it for the devices you choose; by default EDGE only observes.
  • Complements, and does not replace, an independent hardware temperature relay.
  • Does not read the content of traffic, only the facts of connections. Planned formats (not yet announced): a package for OpenWrt routers, a box for a small office or shop, a server version. Early access: a pilot at one or two sites.
