EM-SEC Technologies Announces
Successful Test of
Wireless-Blocking “Paint”
EM-SEC Coating Creates an “Electromagnetic
Fortress” that Safeguards Businesses
and Government Facilities from Wireless
Attacks
Hampton, VA – March
14, 2007 – EM-SEC Technologies, LLC
announced today that the tests performed
around the perimeter of their “painted”
SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information
Facility) yielded successful results for
the protection of wireless devices and
other electronic equipment within the
structure. The tests confirmed that wireless
transmission of information can be protected
from unauthorized access by the use of
their EM-SEC Coating System.
“The use of EM-SEC
Coating as an electromagnetic barrier
for the containment of wireless networks
has opened a new realm of possibilities
for our company and for the future of
wireless communications” said Robert
Boyd, Vice President and Director of Technology
for EM-SEC Technologies, LLC. “As
hackers, identity thieves and even terrorists
become more sophisticated in the methods
they use to obtain information or inflict
damage, this experiment confirmed EM-SEC
Coating reduces the threat from electronic
eavesdropping and blocks out electromagnetic
interference for the protection of electronic
data.”
This was an exclusive operation
to test the effects of utilizing the EM-SEC
Coating System as a viable solution to
enabling the safe and secure operation
of wireless networks within the confines
of an architectural enclosure. The EM-SEC
Coating System used for these tests is
a series of water-based shielding products
that restrict the passage of airborne
RF (Radio Frequency) signals. The EM-SEC
Coating was initially developed to aid
the U.S. Government and Military in shielding
operation centers in order to safeguard
mission critical information against threats
to national and homeland security. These
tests revealed that EM-SEC Coating can
now successfully be utilized by corporate
and private companies.
The tests demonstrated that intellectual
property can no longer be stolen through
the airwaves while inside an EM-SEC-coated
facility. The results showed that a one-time
application of the EM-SEC Coating creates
an “electromagnetic fortress”
by preventing airborne hackers from intercepting
signals.
“We have developed
an innovative shielding system that cannot
only be utilized by corporate offices,
boardrooms, server and computer rooms
and research and development laboratories
to protect their digital assets from electronic
eavesdropping, but it will also ensure
the safe operation of wireless networks”,
said Wayne LeGrande, President and Chief
Technical Officer, EM-SEC Technologies,
LLC.
