How to Bypass 5 Major Security Risks

Businesses continue to invest in advanced security defenses like next-generation firewalls, intrusion prevention systems (NGFW and NGIPS), data loss prevention (DLP), and other inline tools. These tools can significantly strengthen security, but may also add complexity, operational cost, and even risk.

Mitigate these and other challenges by including bypass switching intelligence as you migrate to next-gen solutions. Read the solution brief, “Ixia iBypass: Avoid 5 Common Security Risks in One Simple Step,” to learn how a bypass switching works to:

  • Prevent costly delays and surprises during inline deployments.
  • Avoid introducing single points of failure.
  • Ensure resilience and high availability.
  • Maintain devices without impacting the network.
  • Assure scalability.

Packet Brokers: One Device, Five Benefits to IT

If the term Network Packet Broker (NPB) is not familiar, now is the time to get acquainted with this invaluable and frequently overlooked device.

Think of NPBs as helpful middlemen that sort, distribute, and optimize the flow of network data going to your monitoring and security tools. By receiving only the data they need and eliminating irrelevant traffic, NPBs make your monitoring and security solutions more efficient so you can reduce costs.

And that’s just one of the benefits!
