The NarusInsight Solution for Cyber Protection is a traffic intelligence solution, providing real-time identification and mitigation of any unwanted or malicious traffic for the protection and management of large IP networks.

Built on the NarusInsight Traffic Intelligence system, the NarusInsight Solution for Cyber Protection is used to monitor and analyze network traffic from service providers and government organizations around the world. It detects anomalous and malicious traffic and alerts network operators of the changes in behavior that signify attack or network-impacting activity. The alerts are analyzed in detail and the correct mitigation step is taken to block or cleanse “bad traffic.”

 

 


Key Features

   Global Traffic Analysis and Management

  • Gain full visibility into network traffic collected, correlated and analyzed from multiple network sources in real time
  • Profile and monitor various layer-2 to layer-7 traffic characteristics
  • Access and generate customizable reports

 

   Network-wide Anomaly Detection and Mitigation

  • Detect unique or anomalous traffic patterns across distributed networks
  • Alert on distributed, voluminous, hidden, and/or random traffic for zero-day attacks or other forms of malicious traffic
  • Mitigate unwanted traffic with step-by-step guidelines on how and where to take action

 

   Forensic Capture

  • Record selected and targeted network traffic for playback at a later time
  • Selectively search suspicious activity within the recorded data
  • Reconstruct events surrounding attacks or unauthorized activities

 

Key Differentiators

  • Enables unified operations for network and security
  • Protects against unwanted, unwarranted or malicious traffic
  • Incrementally scales to support expansions in traffic volume and network coverage
  • Easily extensible and highly modular
  • Highly configurable to address specific networking and security needs


Operational Flow

To execute on an effective cyber protection strategy, there’s much more to be considered than simply arbitrarily blocking potentially “bad” traffic. Narus advocates a holistic approach to complete cyber protection which requires that all four of the following functions are addressed regularly and in a continuous cycle:

  1. Monitor and analyze network traffic
  2. Detect anomalous and/or malicious traffic
  3. Analyze alerts and determine policy
  4. Mitigate against anomalous traffic

By following these four broad steps with the NarusInsight Solution for Cyber Protection, service providers and government organizations can protect and manage their networks, services and customers.
