Mahlet’s Layer 1+ Forensic Edge Guard |L1FEguard| pioneers a new category of Layer 1–7 defense, protecting critical industries like telecommunications, healthcare, finance, cloud service providers, government, and more from devastating unseen threats.
L1FEguard is a first-in-its-class network security appliance that secures Layers 1–7 before traffic hits your systems, protecting critical networks from the ground up and safeguarding the integrity of your edge devices like firewalls, encryptors, and optical switches against insider threats, backdoors, and zero-day attacks.
L1FEguard installs in parallel with your optical switch, analyzing OTN, SDH, SONET, or bulk Ethernet signals for real-time threat detection without added latency or risk.
Monitors Layers 1–7 with optical telemetry, anomaly detection, and targeted signatures to close gaps and uncover malicious activity before it infects your network.
Feeds your SIEM, XDR, MDR, etc. with telemetry, traffic summaries, and anomaly alerts across all layers while enhancing incident response with triggered signal snapshots.
