What can you use it for? How is it different from other tools? Ruggedized handheld solution Android based device, capable of running additional approved apps from the NetAlly app store All in one Incredible battery life Both passive and active testing Not only a site survey and spectrum analysis tool, it is more of daily troubleshooting and validation solution Can be used for network discovery and topology mapping Supports external antenna for device location You can expand its functionality by using USB accessories or installing third party apps. The Breakdown Active / Passive surveys 1 single device to carry around, no adapters or tethers to other devices Auto samples while you move, just like most other survey devices Simply tap when you change direction Load drawings / floor plans to Link-Live cloud account, name and calibrate. Multiple formats acceptable  Push plans to the device and you are ready to go! Completed surveys can be analyzed in Link-live, downloaded to AirMagnet or even exported to Hamina or other tools! Spectrum Analysis Honestly, used to be good for a few spot checks here and there but the new adapter (the NXT-2000) has completely changed NetAlly’s game with spec-an Increased scan rates Increased resolution Much easier to recognize classic RF signatures like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and other notable protocols like FHSS/DSSS Currently can only take snapshots of readings but actual recordings are on the development roadmap. Wi-Fi analytics (sheesh, where to start…) General Wi-Fi network detection W-Fi client detection Per SSID Wi-Fi type / protocols (wi-fi 3, 4 5 etc…) Security types recognition and validation Great tool called “Insights” which can identify and highlight potential issues based off of wireless best practices Chanel widths Legacy wireless types (wireless b for example) Legacy security TX power limits Identifies devices with high/very high retransmits and highlights them Full network scans on connected networks for device inventory and security checks/validation Sooo much more! Link-Live One stop shop for analytics on everything the device reports Little bit of a learning curve on site navigation / file structure Outstanding graphs and charts depicting multiple different points of interest from the analytics. These are easily downloaded in your choice of several different formats to include in custom reporting Can share data with other link-live accounts  What is a CyberScope? How is it different from an AirCheck? NMap Comes with 5 or 6 premade scripts ready to run Can upload custom scripts to run Access to other Android based apps Important links Where can we see NetAlly in action? https://www.netally.com/on-the-road/  Aircheck G3 – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5I1kWc2eao  Cyberscope Air – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GriSMAbJ5c  If you would like to connect with Julio or learn more about his employer, NetAlly, then check the following: Julio Petrovitch – https://www.linkedin.com/in/julio-petrovitch-99a050345/  NetAlly – https://www.netally.com/   If you would like to connect with Scott or learn more about his employer, Global Process Automation (GPA), then check the following: Scott McNeil – https://www.linkedin.com/in/americanmcneil/  GPA – https://www.global-business.net/  If you would like to connect with Jeremy or learn more about his employer, Prism Systems Inc, then check the following: Jeremy Baker – https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremyabaker/  Prism Systems Inc – https://www.prismsystems.com/
