LENSEC Includes Comprehensive Security Protection in Perspective VMS®HOUSTON, Sept. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- LENSEC engineers have outlined several key protection mechanisms that are purpose-built with our enterprise-level video management software. Perspective VMS® comes with several security enhancements included to help protect the system and the data contained within. LENSEC's Chief Product Officer, Jeff Kellick, says PVMS stands out from the competitor's thick-client software because it is 100% browser-based. Kellick says, "We take advantage of the indispensable web browser. The browser is a software application that is already installed on client workstations, and therefore already vetted by IT professionals. We support up-to-date production releases of the major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge or Internet Explorer). Therefore, we are in line with utilizing an application which the IT department approves without the need for installing any proprietary, 3rd-party application that would require further acceptance tests. With HTML5, Perspective VMS® doesn't need a plugin, which eliminates past generations' browser vulnerabilities. Browsers developed today by Google, Microsoft, and others have established continuous integration and testing to meet evolving threat mitigation standards. Leveraging this platform enables our client software to maintain leading-edge best practices for overall application security." Configuration Encryption Protecting Web Traffic The data contained within this secured connection is only visible to the hosts involved in the negotiating phases. This helps prevent Man in the Middle (MITM) attacks; an attack in which a third party interjects themselves between two hosts for the purposes of eavesdropping or impersonating one of the hosts. Protecting Streaming Traffic On Camera SSL Planning Networks and Leveraging PVMS Security Network security is added using SSL and WSS between the Perspective VMS® servers and the client workstations. Additionally, the edge devices may be setup on a subnet, communicating via the streaming service as a proxy. Overall, the advanced methods recommended will add an extra layer of protection from hackers and harden the network architecture to prevent outside attacks.
