Every Network Has a Security Vulnerability – Where is Yours?
Here is a three-point plan that works to expose intrusions and decrease network security risk:
- Reduce as many vulnerabilities within the network as possible
- Find and quickly remediate intrusions that are discovered in the network
- Periodically test your defenses to make sure they are actually detecting and blocking threats
Network Security – It All Starts With Prevention
It is important to note that an inline security solution is more than just adding a security appliance, like an intrusion prevention system (IPS) or a web application firewall (WAF). The solution requires external bypass switches and network packet brokers (NPBs) to access and deliver complete data visibility. This allows for the examination of ALL data for suspect network traffic.
Hunt Down Intrusions
Keysight Technologies has the solution to this problem. Their taps, bypass switches and NPBs provide the visibility and confidence you need that you are seeing EVERYTHING in your network – every bit, byte and packet. Once you have this level of visibility, threat hunting tools and security information and event management (SIEM) systems can proactively look for indicators of compromise (IOC).
Stay Vigilant and Constantly Validate Your Security Architecture
Keysight NPBs, taps, bypass switches, and BAS solutions offer businesses the following benefits:
- Increased network reliability with better inline security fail-over techniques.
- Improved security appliance survivability with a self-healing architecture.
- Integrated transport layer security (TLS) decryption to expose hidden security threats.
- Zero packet loss for data transfers to your threat detection tools, like an IDS.
- Ability to deploy measures to capture indicators of compromise.
- A BAS solution that enables you to safely test against real-world threats.
Keysight Technologies and our technology partners can show you how to fortify your network against multiple threat vectors.
