Byos Secure Embedded Edge™
Embed your devices with Byos Secure Edge™ Microsegmentation technology for true hardware-enforced network security at the edge.
What is the Byos Secure Embedded Edge™?
The Byos Secure Embedded Edge™ is an embeddable System on Module (SOM) that acts as a gateway between a laptop and its network. Once connected to the laptop through the M.2 port, it replaces the native Wi-Fi module and acts as the first point of contact for all network traffic. With its low power consumption (1-2 watts) and hardware-enforced protection, the Byos Secure Embedded Edge™ isolates the device from the rest of the network, protecting it from attacks targeting the operating system (OS) or bypassing endpoint security software.
CORE FEATURES
- Retransmission Device (RTD): Decouples the network connection from the laptop’s OS, preventing any network-based attack from reaching the asset’s system or applications.
- Asset Cloaking: Makes the connected laptop invisible to other devices on the local network, preventing any unwanted network discovery or probing.
- Captive Portal Protection: Provides enhanced security for devices that connect to captive portal networks (e.g., public Wi-Fi in airports or hotels).
KEY BENEFITS
Embedded Network Security at the Edge
By directly connecting to the laptop hardware, the Secure Embedded Edge™ provides security that is independent of the device’s OS or cloud services, protecting against stealth attacks and bypass attempts.
No Susceptibility to OS-Level Attacks
Traditional software-based security solutions can be bypassed or evaded, but the Byos Secure Embedded Edge™ operates outside the OS, ensuring that endpoint protection remains active and uncompromised.
Hardware-Enforced Isolation
The module acts as a retransmission device (RTD), creating a microsegment for the laptop that shields it from the broader network. This isolation prevents lateral movement and eliminates the attack surface exposed to malicious network activity.
Why Choose Byos Secure Embedded Edge™?
Complete Control Over Network Security
Security teams gain full control over device security, independent of the OS or any software running on the laptop. It creates a secure gateway for all traffic, and gives administrators centralized control and policy enforcement through the Byos Management Console™.
Meets NSA’s Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) Requirements
The Secure Embedded Edge™ adheres to strict security protocols, ensuring that it meets the highest standards for secure network communications, including those laid out by the NSA’s CSfC guidelines.
Ideal for Remote Work and Critical Infrastructure
Whether your workforce is mobile or managing sensitive infrastructure, Byos Secure Embedded Edge™ ensures your devices are protected, even in untrusted environments like public Wi-Fi networks.
FIPS Validated
Byos Cryptographic Module is FIPS 140-2 Validated. Visit the NIST CMVP website for more details – Certificate #4964
