Security
NovaRoam uses Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology.
While FHSS makes it difficult for a casual interceptor or eavesdropper to gain
access to the network data flows, a determined adversary can passively intercept
or even actively disrupt your network using other NovaRoam transceivers or
similar types of FHSS equipment. For this reason, if the value of the information
flows is significant, the prudent network designer will implement additional
mechanisms to authenticate messages and protect the network content from
exploitation. One such mechanism for securing TCP/IP connections is the Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. Other mechanisms and protocols can be
implemented depending upon your needs.
