Risk from Within - the keyboard
n this age of wide and easy accessibility to an organization’s data, the military, banks, health services and financial organizations are constantly exposed to increasing internal fraud risk.
Very startling is the fact that fraud is often carried out through abuse of internal resources by authorized personnel, with passwords easily circumvented or stolen using software or hardware keyboard loggers, wired or wireless tapping technology or a broad range of other malicious means.
The biggest problem is relying mostly on software solutions to protect the data, yet the data entry point, the input device everyone use - the keyboard, is exposed to anyone with malicious means and some knowledge or just the right equipment.
Software keylogging is fought with security software, hardware keyloggers are fought with repeated checks of the devices plugged to the PC, but wireless keylogging cant be protected by software and can’t be detected physically and there is just nothing to stop the keyboard from emitting compromising emissions.
Nothing?
Aymer, to counter these challenges, has a unique point of view, that hardware solutions alone can withstand the threats, by not allowing unauthorized personnel access to the system and thus bypass the security rules, nor to let outsiders exploit any vulnerability in the system. Aymer leads a pioneering approach focused on the most obvious, yet normally unmonitored potential point of entry, through which security is most likely compromised – namely, the office or branch, where employees enter and manipulate the data, where outsiders have daily access to and where countless people have access to the computers.

Optical Keyboard Technology
"The advantage of the optical keyboard technology is that it offers a real waterproof keyboard, resilient to dust and liquids, it is electromagnetic emissions free (thus cannot be eavesdropped to wirelessly) ".
