The challenge
Your organization faces a constant barrage of cyber threats, making it difficult to detect and respond to attacks before they cause significant damage. Traditional security tools often lack the visibility needed to identify sophisticated threats, leaving your network vulnerable. Without comprehensive network analysis and forensics capabilities, you risk prolonged dwell times, increased breach costs, and potential regulatory penalties. You need a solution that provides real-time visibility, behavioral analytics, and automated response to effectively protect your organization from evolving cyber threats.

The solution
Network analysis and forensics addresses your unique challenges through modern solutions and key capabilities.
Continuous real-time visibility
Monitor all network traffic across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments, eliminating blind spots and ensuring comprehensive coverage.
Behavioral analytics and baselining
Identify deviations from normal network behavior to detect unknown threats and zero-day exploits that signature-based tools miss.
Encrypted traffic analysis (ETA)
Detect malicious patterns within encrypted streams without decryption, maintaining privacy and security while identifying hidden threats.
East-west traffic monitoring
Gain visibility into internal lateral movement to detect attackers who have already penetrated the perimeter and are moving within the network.
Automated and guided response
Automatically terminate malicious sessions or isolate compromised systems through integrations with EDR and firewalls to contain threats quickly.
Full packet capture (PCAP) and indexing
Retrieve and replay specific communication sessions in seconds with indexed historical data, providing definitive evidence for incident investigations.

How to evaluate network analysis and forensics
1
Continuous real-time visibility
Ensure the solution monitors all traffic across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments without blind spots.
2
Behavioral analytics and baselining
Evaluate the system's ability to learn normal behavior and identify deviations that indicate unknown threats or zero-day exploits.
3
Encrypted traffic analysis (ETA)
Verify the solution can detect malicious patterns within encrypted streams without requiring full decryption.
4
Integration requirements
Confirm the tool integrates seamlessly with your existing SIEM, SOAR, EDR, and IAM systems.
