If you are wondering what an Intent-Based Network (IBN) is all about, Cisco recently described it (in “capsule” form) in a recent introductory paper to the concept, as “A network that predicts, protects and adapts”.
OK, so we know that to secure and control our network, we need full visibility into the traffic passing through it. What we would like to have, is a truly non-intrusive device that will offer that visibility, without affecting the network.
Whether we're talking about enterprises, telecommunication companies or Multi-System Operators (MSOs), network and security engineers need to deal with the increasing demands of their growing networks.
Enterprises and Service Providers today sure do have their work cut out for them. Security work. They deal with a lot of data, much of it being confidential. With all the looming inside and outside threanetworkts, it is paramount and in everyone's interest to keep this valuable and confidential data secure.
As a network security specialist, there’s no doubt that one of the network security tools you make use of is SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). However, SSL isn’t only used by security specialists to protect highly confidential data.
In today's connected digital environment, there's more of a need than ever to secure your network. DDoS attacks are on the rise. More criminals are trying to take advantage of exploits to
Do you need a Network Packet Broker? Before you can decide whether you need one or not, let's remember what a NPB is…
Network visibility is becoming increasingly important as organizations are challenged to deploy increasingly complex network services, such as security, performance management and monitoring on an ever evolving and expanding network and data center architecture.
Improved efficiency of security tools In the first part of this blog series, we looked at how 100GbE-based Network Packet Brokers (NPBs) can help establish resilient connectivity between 10/40GbE-capable network security tools and 100GbE core networks. In this post, we will look at how NPBs optimize distribution of traffic from 100GbE networks to lower speed appliance ...
