Overview

The Defender Adapter SA201 delivers enterprise-grade performance and personalized protection for vulnerable wired devices. Placed between the network and the device, the Defender Adapter works in conjunction with the Defender Application (a value add application on the ExtremeCloud Appliance) to secure, isolate, track and monitor IoT devices. SA201 has a full layer 1-7 visibility and can be paired 1:1 with a medical or IoT device in a hospital or campus environment. The SA201 solution capabilities include:

• Isolation of groups of IoT devices into their own secure zones. This helps in secure attachment of IoT devices into the specified secure zone.
• Protection of IoT devices from being seen from harmful traffic such as viruses and malware.
• Filteration of traffic flows by limiting what the device receives and transmits.
• Use of Follow Me profiles that are set centrally and applied on a by-device basis. This helps in automatic assignment of profiles when the device is connected or disconnected from the network.
