Device Security
- Mimosa allows any individual to submit vulnerabilities on our devices. These vulnerabilities are quickly addressed in subsequent firmware releases.
- Mimosa tracks vulnerabilities across all open-source software that it uses. By upgrading these open-source software to latest versions, we plug-in the vulnerabilities.
- Mimosa devices support enabling firewall protection. This configures management access-control lists (ACLs) on the devices, thereby protecting devices from external denial-of-service (DOS) attacks.
- Mimosa devices support configuring management VLANs. Many of our customers use it to isolate management access of these devices from regular data path.
- Mimosa devices support HTTPS access to device web UI, which allows encrypted data between the web browser and device preventing man-in-the-middle attacks.
- Mimosa devices provide only minimal external APIs to reduce attack surface.
- Mimosa devices communicate using proprietary TDMA protocol. Hence, wireless packet sniffing cannot reveal much information.
- Mimosa devices support WPA-2 encryption of data packets forwarded over the wireless interface.
- Mimosa PTMP devices support RADIUS authentication of their clients, thereby blocking rogue clients from associating to the access point.
- Mimosa devices do not support JTAG interface
- Mimosa PTMP devices support DHCP server protection, which ensures that devices do not receive DHCP IP address from rogue DHCP servers.
Network Security
- Mimosa PTMP devices support DHCP option-82, which allows DHCP server to validate DHCP requests coming from end hosts, connected to PTMP clients.
- Mimosa devices support data VLANs, which can be used to configure networks to isolate traffic better.
