See everything. Know everything.


In a world where it is impossible to prevent every known threat, organizations are turning to strategies that shorten the time needed to determine the full scope of a security event to fortify their networks in combating today’s attackers. Solera Networks produces innovative software-based solutions that work with all existing security toolsets and provide important context for these evolving threats. These solutions are accessible to all types of organizations and networks, including physical and virtualized, and enable complete capture, indexing, storage, replay, and analysis of all network events with the ability to zero in on the actual source of any event with web-search ease. This reduces exposure windows and time to resolution, ultimately saving customers time and money.

As businesses face the pressures of compliance and attempt to avoid inevitable breaches to their systems, the need for complete visibility of all network activity is critical. Networks have become exponentially faster and carry increasingly more types of data. This requires organizations to implement network surveillance solutions to deliver a complete historical record of all network traffic in order to address network incidents faster and promote timely and efficient resolution. Only Solera Networks provides the ability to record a complete forensic-grade history of all network traffic, in physical or virtual environments, at today’s speeds, even on 10Gb networks.

Just as a video camera captures every event in the bank, Solera Networks capture every packet crossing the network. The added visibility provided by a complete, searchable historical record of all network traffic is driving significant improvements in network forensics, data loss prevention, network management, performance optimization, and policy and regulatory compliance.

Solera Networks offers high-speed packet capture, indexing, storage, retrieval, and reconstruction software for network forensics applications. The architecture enables open interoperability, extensible storage, and portability for any network, giving security professionals complete network visibility. Available via hardware or software, we also offer solutions that provide customers with virtually unlimited storage capacity.

Key Product Components

  • Solera DS Appliances – Full network capture, up to 10Gbps with onboard storage up to 16TB, expandable to any storage need
  • Solera DeepSee Apps – web-based searching of network traffic for instant artifact reconstruction and replay of any network event
  • Solera Virtual Appliance – The only virtual capture appliance in the market for VM-specific forensics

Solera Networks solutions improve the effectiveness of network security technologies such as IPS/IDS, SEM/SIEM, Firewalls, and numerous others by recording all network traffic at full line rate. Then, through Solera Networks’ open data access methods, these tools can access the complete recording of all network traffic, not just a sample, greatly increasing their results and the ability to determine the true scope of any network security event.
