Infineon Technologies equips Juniper Networks with hardware-based security solutions to protect network equipment

Routers and other network equipment face increasingly sophisticated threats. Successful attackers can gain access to critical systems, modify network configurations and access customer data.

Routers and other network equipment face increasingly sophisticated threats. Successful attackers can gain access to critical systems, modify network configurations and access customer data. That's why Juniper Networks, an industry leader in automated, scalable and secure networks, has invested in enhanced security by adding hardware-based security solutions to its already robust secure networking portfolio. Juniper is using the OPTIGA Trusted Platform Module (TPM) from Infineon Technologies in their routers, firewalls and other products.

Juniper Networks is paving a new way in the network industry

By further fortifying its products with hardware-based security solutions, Juniper sets a new benchmark in the networking industry to help customers secure their networks, providing optimized protection against physical and logical attacks. Juniper's customers can now protect their network routers and security gateways throughout their branches. To further enhance protection and address customer needs, Juniper has integrated strong hardware-based security into its routers. Using an onboard OPTIGA™ TPM, the Juniper SRX300 series of routers now securely stores a hash of the authorized configuration and compares it to a new configuration hash created when the device reboots. Thus, the OPTIGA TPM protects the router from rebooting with a manipulated configuration.

In this webinar, Infineon provides information on the latest attacks on network equipment and how Juniper is using an Infineon TPM to defend against these attacks. Experience the live demo at the Infineon booth 6C41 in Hall 6 at the Mobile World Congress 2018 (Barcelona, Spain, February 26 to March 1).
