PRODUCTS – NETWORK SECURITY – i-SECURIT
The Benchmark i-SECURIT is a network and data security
training system that has been jointly developed by Benchmark Electronic Systems
and AU-KBC Research Centre, Anna University, to educate and train users on
different real world network security threats and data encryption methods.
i-SECURIT – A One Stop Solution
- Training for Network Administrators and Security Experts
- Emulates a real-life network to give hands on training on live
security threats
- Complete courseware for classroom or self-paced learning

Innovative Design Allows Real Life Training
The
Benchmark i-SECURIT is a complete system with two interconnected real life
networks – the “Trusted Network” and the “Black Network”.
These networks are isolated from the real world i.e. any corporate or campus
LAN and the Internet. The i-SECURIT Central Control Unit (CCU) runs the network
services, administration and control methods. The Black Network users attempt
to compromise the services by different attacks, such as Intrusions, Password
Cracking, and Denial of Service. The trusted network users simultaneously
work on, and are trained to deploy, suitable counter measures to keep network
services running properly.
 The
Benchmark i-SECURIT covers a large gamut of network security threats and its
users can obtain hands-on experience with a wide variety of network security
issues and cryptography methods. The course design allows the learner to read
about a concept, witness a demonstration and then actually practice its execution.
This meets the study flow of beginners as well as industry professionals.
Through a single Benchmark i-SECURIT, you can connect up to 15 PCs, with one
slot reserved for the network administrator, and can start working with
as little as two to three PCs.
Courseware
Benchmark has worked with experts in the field of network security and cryptography
to create comprehensive learning material for conducting complete network security
courses. The course material has been presented by pedagogy experts for ease
of learning and long term retention. Users can follow the theory and
go through the exercises for a complete understanding of the concepts through
self study. This also makes it ideal for user paced learning.
Training Design Approach
Benchmark i-SECURIT Experiment Topics are designed at three levels:
- Level I: Running Network Services
- Network services to be run and procedures to be adopted are discussed.
- Level II: Attack the Trusted Network and shut down the services
- The methods used in attacking network services and shutting
them down are explained in this level. The manual explains the same with
step-by-step instructions.
- Level III: Training on Network Security Counter Measures
- The user is trained on Network administration and monitoring methods used to
protect a network from cyber attacks – as experienced in Level
II – as well as on different techniques such as cryptography, honeypots,
etc., to ensure data and information security.
