How PacketSentry works

PacketSentry Advantage – Industry Firsts

Our PacketSentry appliance uniquely combines multi-core processing power, patented deep packet analysis technologies, as well as identity, directory and application intelligence to deliver comprehensive visibility and control of detailed network user transactions – unlike any security appliance available. Here are just some of the many powerful features and immediate benefits:

Features Benefits
Revolutionary integration of multiple Intel quad-core processors with innovative software architecture and protocol decode

Unprecedented combination of performance and application intelligence – a whole new world of visibility

Deep packet analysis captures, decodes and correlates layers 4-7 user activity and provides information asset access controls in real-time at LAN-rate

Real-time, granular network user visibility, monitoring and policy enforcement

Unprecedented visibility and control that is cross-platform and unobtrusive - without requiring agents, Netflow, or logs

Immediate deployment, faster time-to-value and heterogeneous coverage

Active Directory integration imports, monitors and applies directory object changes to respective PacketSentry components

Leverages AD investment, reduces administration effort, automatically keeps policies in sync

Browser interface provides centralized control as to what information assets a network user can access – beyond Netflow trends and instances of IP addresses, ports and session data

Means to easily monitor, interpret and control network user activity with high granularity and business context

Segregated record of network user activity provides terabytes and months of historical high-speed analysis through web-like freeform search, reports and dashboards

Intuitive, rapid means to get identity, access and behavior answers

Full details on employee, contractor and unknown (rogue) user access to data center assets - with assured identity and response

Readily gain comprehensive network user action visibility – including high-risk users

Instant insight into system and application bandwidth con­sumption, anomalous traffic, file share patterns, and actions prior to outage - tied to users and groups.

Increased operational efficiency by consolidating security and network analysis

Captures all the business-level network transactions down to the database and database table, directory/folder name and filename, and e-mail, webmail, chat and P2P sources, destination and attachments

Readily gain granular network user, group and information movement insight

Robust reporting and rules engine that includes extensible templates aligned to ISO, COBIT and data privacy frameworks and controls

Saves IT and security staff time and cost for investigation, control validation, policy management and reporting

Rule builder facilitates test, tune, and activation of policy and virtually eliminates false positives with rule simulation

Expedites high confidence rule creation and management

Convenient whitelist and blacklist activity monitoring and bandwidth consumption tied to users and groups

Accelerates policy development and IT resource optimization processes

Roles-based access controls (RBAC) to limit the operator’s scope of function and data visibility

Appropriated restricts operator capabilities and access to sensitive information

Manager-Probe scalable appliance architecture that is unobtrusive, not in-line, and provides as needed coverage

Extensive coverage and consistent performance without affecting network availability
