LONDON: Lancope, Inc., a leader in network visibility and security intelligence, is offering a free trial of its StealthWatch® FlowReplicator. Available as either a standalone solution or as part of a larger StealthWatch deployment, the FlowReplicator enables both novice and advanced NetFlow users to significantly improve their security posture and network operations by making it easy to collect flow data for analysis and reporting.
“NetFlow has quickly emerged as a powerful technology for obtaining optimal network visibility and security,” said Jim Frey, vice president of research at Enterprise Management Associates (EMA). “Already inherent in routers, switches and other infrastructure devices, flow data provides a cost-effective means of filling in the gaps left by conventional solutions, and is lightweight enough to be used in virtual and cloud deployments. Lancope’s FlowReplicator enables enterprises to overcome inherent limitations on the number of NetFlow destinations and leverage flow telemetry for cost-effective network performance and security monitoring.”
The FlowReplicator is a purpose-built device for the high-capacity replication of disparate log data to one or many destinations. By aggregating and providing a single, standardised destination for NetFlow, IPFIX, sFlow, Syslog and SNMP information, the FlowReplicator greatly simplifies the integration of multiple types of network and security data within large enterprises. The appliance can receive data from any connectionless UDP application, and is available in either a physical or virtual form factor, allowing users to choose the implementation and maintenance structure that works best for their organisation.
Lancope’s StealthWatch System collects and analyses flow data from existing infrastructure to provide in-depth network insight and security context for improved troubleshooting and incident response. By delivering a comprehensive view of network activity, StealthWatch can help organisations defend their networks from advanced challenges including APTs, insider threats, cloud computing and BYOD.
The FlowReplicator free trial is a fast, easy way to begin experiencing the power of NetFlow for enhanced security, forensics, performance and compliance.
