Top 10 reasons for complete network visibility
With a complete historical record, there are no more secrets; every action taken on the network is recorded and stored. You can go back in time to watch network breaches, slow hacks, and network slowdowns unfold.
With a comprehensive record of all data crossing your network, you can see what is being viewed, who viewed it, when it was accessed and view exactly what they did with it.
With a complete historical record—as opposed to a snapshot or sample—of network traffic, intrusion detection and protection software are more effective at pinpointing vulnerable portions of the network.
Know exactly who views/accesses what information and whether or not they are sharing it with others in the organization. Capture complete evidentiary proof of policy abuse.
Monitor network traffic for unauthorized or unsecured network components or access points so you can lock them out.
Identify the context around IDS, IPS and firewall alerts. Record actual traffic used to compromise a Web site, database, or other critical system. Collect evidence for forensics analysis so you can prevent further security breaches.
Demonstrate compliance for HIPAA, SOX, FISMA, and other mandates. A complete record of network traffic helps enforce compliance to government and self-imposed “e-discovery” regulations.
ISPs, VoIP and Broadband providers can comply with data communication tap warrants and deliver law enforcement agencies specific data as outlined in the warrant.
Analyze historic network traffic and identify poor performing network segments. Identify particular network traffic behavior patterns for ways to improve performance. Replay anomalous events to reduce the time it takes to resolve performance issues.
Capture specific network traffic to verify that only authorized employees are accessing servers and other critical systems.
