Network Integrity Systems' VANGUARD FOCUSNX™ Optical Intrusion Detection System utilizes Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) technology to monitor long-haul cables and pathways, up to 100km in length, with pinpoint location of any disturbances to your network communications cables, to 1-meter of resolution.
The VANGUARD FOCUSNX sends pulsed laser light into a single strand of single-mode optical fiber and monitors the Rayleigh backscatter from the reflected light. The Rayleigh backscatter pattern changes with acoustic and vibrational energy. Once the reflected pattern is received, it is processed and analyzed by advanced algorithms to determine the type of event, such as digging near buried conduit, cutting into conduit, and physical handling of the cable. The system will also provide precise location along the cable and monitor the event over time.

Overview
Since 2003, Network Integrity Systems has applied its expertise in optical fiber monitoring to prevent physical cyber attacks on network infrastructure. Our solutions perform continuous analysis of cables, pathways and points of vulnerability such as manholes, fence lines and equipment cabinets and look for intrusions that occur as a precursor to a physical cyber attack (tapping, theft of data) or damage that could degrade network performance or availability.
