Eliminate blindspots that impact your organization's security and performance.

Keysight dynamic network intelligence lets you take traffic from anywhere on the network, filter, groom and process it and send that traffic to the network security and monitoring tools that need it - decrypted, deduplicated, unencapsulated and ready for efficient consumption without blind spots or dropped packets.

Enterprises, government agencies, educational institutions, and service providers all need the visibility this provides to effectively manage:

  • Network Security, both inline and out-of-band
  • Network and Application Performance Monitoring

Dynamic network intelligence is enabled by hardware acceleration, line rate processing, and a extremely easy-to-use management interface to deliver value in four important areas. 

Ixia Visibility Architecture offers benefits for Network Security and Performance Monitoring

Industry Leading Visibility with Vision ONE

 

Deploying Dynamic Network Intelligence

Dynamic network intelligence solves challenges in Network Security (both inline and out-of-band) and Performance Monitoring. Learn more about these deployment options.

 

Intelligent Visibility

 

Out of Band Monitoring
Visibility powered by dynamic network intelligence improves the accuracy of out-of-band network, application, and security monitoring, including NPM, APM, SIEM, IDS, etc.

Resilient Security

 

Inline Security Resilience
Failsafe dynamic network intelligence from physical, virtual, and encrypted traffic maximizes the value of your firewall, intrusion prevention system, malware protection, and other security appliances. 

Better Security from Dynamic Network Intelligence

  • DATA ACCESS
  • SECURITY RESILIENCE
  • CONTEXT AWARENESS
  • SECURITY INTELLIGENCE
  • Ixia Security Fabric provides access to traffic across your network.

    DATA ACCESS ANYWHERE

    You want access to data everywhere it exists in your network, not just where a network switch is located. With a combination of fiber, copper, and virtual taps, Ixia Security Fabric provides you with 100% access to physical, virtual, public and private cloud traffic with higher reliability than using only SPAN ports. And even during high-volume traffic conditions, Ixia gives your security and monitoring tools total visibility to network traffic, with zero packet loss.

  • Ixia Security Fabric supports failsafe inline security inspection.

    SECURITY RESILIENCE

    You need failsafe security solutions to maximize your defenses and protect network availability. Whether you experience a hardware or software failure, or just need to take a tool offline for maintenance, Ixia bypass switches can route traffic around any security tool that is unavailable or route traffic to an alternate device. With the industry's fastest near-instant recovery, Ixia Security Fabric ensures your security solutions operate continuously.

  • Ixia Security Fabric has a powerful engine that recognizes metadata and can isolate Netflow information.

    CONTEXT-AWARE DATA PROCESSING

    Ixia Security Fabric uses a powerful, hardware-based processing engine to send the right data to the right tools, at line rate speed. NetStack and PacketStack functionality enable the engine to isolate and filter traffic based on metadata; generate NetFlow data; and provide deduplication, packet trimming, and data masking. AppStack functionality supports filtering based on application, geolocation, browser, device, or any other user-defined parameter.

  • Ixia Security Fabric offloads SSL for faster security inspection.

    SECURITY INTELLIGENCE PROCESSING

    Ixia Security Fabric helps keep your defenses strong with unique security features. SecureStack functionality provides passive SSL decryption to offload your security tools and help them work more efficiently. PacketStack functionality supports compliance by masking sensitive information like credit card and social security numbers. In addition, Ixia offers a hardware-based threat intelligence solution that blocks traffic from IP addresses associated with malware, viruses, and other attacks, so it never even enters your network.
