Netscout
Netscout transforms and accelerates the way customers deliver, deploy and protect services and applications in physical, virtual and cloud environments.
Netscout is active in the field of smart data, which means that precise real-time information is extracted from large volumes of data. The company quickly captures the data that matters to you and your systems.
It also provides the real-time information you need to drive network and application performance, deliver an unrivalled user experience and identify and remediate the latest cyber and DDoS threats.
Despite today’s dynamic threat landscape, many organisations still believe that dedicated DDoS protection is not important – or that an outdated solution provides sufficient security. In such cases, your customers are putting their own network at risk.
Netscout is a global provider in the field of network security. This technology is used in around 70 per cent of service provider networks worldwide and by 90 per cent of Tier 1 operators. Netscout has extensive knowledge and years of experience in protecting the world’s leading service providers. Based on this, the company has developed a range of solutions that can be used in both small companies and large corporations.
DDoS Protection
DDoS protection can be used to protect against so-called distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, in which a large number of infected systems are maliciously used to attack a single target. The target system is usually unable to handle the large amount of requests and is therefore no longer accessible to its users; the flood of incoming messages forces a shutdown of the system and therefore also of the services provided to legitimate users via this system.
Advanced Threat Detection
Advanced Threat Detection is a broad term for solutions that use certain types of analysis to increase the security of systems. Among other things, these solutions can analyse and evaluate downloads or other user activities from various systems risk-free in a sandbox.
Application Layer Gateway
Application layer gateways are placed between the secure and insecure network; a proxy server is set up on them for each service to be monitored, which, unlike packet filtering, can be used to monitor the content. In this way, active content such as ActiveX controls or Java applets can be filtered out of HTML pages or the e-mail can be scanned for viruses.
Firewall (inkl. UTM & NG)
Modern firewall systems now offer a much broader range of integrated features in addition to the conventional functions of a firewall; UTM firewalls provide everything a security expert needs: Firewall, anti-virus, filtering features for web content,emails, application control and network functions (e.g. routing and load balancing) in just one appliance.
Network IPS
Intrusion prevention systems (IPS for short) are intrusion detection systems (IDS for short) that go beyond the mere generation of events to provide functions that can also block a detected attack. Network IPS includes all solutions that can provide centralised protection for the company network.
VPN / SSL / ZTNA
A conventional VPN is a virtual, self-contained communication network that uses an existing communication network as a transport medium. It is used to connect participants in the existing communication network with another network. In addition to traditional networking via VPN gateways, SSL VPN is also increasingly being used to connect individual end devices. With ZTNA administrators can granularly control access to internal resources and restrict access based on the client’s health state.
Web Security
Web security solutions protect end devices from infections and implement company guidelines by using the following technologies: URL filtering, blacklisting, whitelisting, detection and filtering of malicious content, application control of known applications such as Skype.
