EnableProtect | Advanced System Key 

 

Tait EnableProtect Advanced System Key provides you with layers of security, so you can have confidence that no unauthorized users can interfere with your radio fleet. Control the programming of your radio fleet with the Tait EnableProtect Advanced System Key.

 

 

Detail Descriptions

 

  • Authorization
    EnableProtect Advanced System Key (ASK) utilizes specially configured USB Prime and Pass-keys to safeguard radio networks against unauthorized radio programming and use.
  • Read/write protection
    Read/write protection stops unauthorized users from accessing or modifying the configuration data stored in radios.
  • Trunking protection (P25 only):
    Trunking protection is usually required for large state-wide radio systems to prevent unauthorized use of a P25 trunking network. Users must have a USB pass key to program any P25 trunking-related settings.
  • Authentication
    Mandatory passwords for prime keys provide two layers of authentication – the user must have the key and know the password.
  • Accountability
    Prime and pass keys have an internal battery. Tait advises that keys should be replaced every 4 years to ensure they are operational when required.
  • Authorization – approved users are supplied with USB prime or pass keys to enable system access for read/write protection and/or trunking protection.
  • Authentication – passwords and anti-cloning on the pass keys ensure that only the right people can access and program your radio network.
  • Accountability – programmable expiry dates and usage limits help to retain control over the prime and pass keys in the field.

  • Centralized key management
    The user-friendly EnableProtect Key Management Facility (KMF) manages your P25 encryption in one central location, making it easier to manage and update the encryption keys used across your organization.
  • Standards-compliant Over The Air Rekeying (OTAR)
    The EnableProtect Key Management Facility uses industry-standard cryptographic systems for OTAR.
  • The dashboard provides clear fleet status information
    Users can view information the way they need to on the Key Management Facility’s custom dashboard.
  • The intuitive, web-based user interface for set-and-forget operation
    The web-based user interface makes it easy for crypto officers to update different teams’ keys when it best suits their workloads and schedules and updates groups of radios over the air at the press of a button.
  • Remotely inhibit/permit radios
    This feature enables crypto officers to remotely inhibit a radio to prevent its use if it is not required for some time or has been stolen.
  • Authorities
    With the Key Management Facility owners can be assigned to keys and groups whose contact information is in the KMF.
  • Diagnostics Tool
    The EnableProtect Key Management Facility has comprehensive diagnostics designed specifically to establish the state of devices on the network.
  • Sectors
    To make devices easier to track, they can be assigned to sectors. A sector can be a region or an agency.
  • Key Update Task
    With the Key Management Facility, messages are sent only to radios specified by the Key Update Task, so you do not need to address the entire fleet.
  • Problem Devices
    This unique feature makes it easy to track devices that can be contacted but cannot be updated. The Problem Device indicator highlights if there is any change to the list of Problem Devices.
  • Redundancy
    The EnableProtect Key Management Facility configures multiple levels of redundancy. This feature gives users real peace of mind because they are protected against hardware and power failures with virtually no downtime.
  • Unique Key Encryption Key (UKEK)
    Most agencies use a Common Provisioning Key (sometimes called a “shop key”) for the UKEK in all radios. The Key Management Facility can automatically generate a unique UKEK for every radio.
  • Centralized key management
  • Standards compliant Over The Air Rekeying (OTAR) of your P25 radio fleet
  • A user-friendly dashboard for clear fleet status information
  • Secure, intuitive web-based user interface for set-and-forget operation
  • Remote inhibit/permit radios
