Whether you need to move network and data centre traffic faster and more efficiently than existing methods, accelerate new releases with test automation, or provide feeds for security compliance, this is a great interview with our good friend Mike Utley at HUBER+SUHNER Polatis covering how optical circuit switches provide significant capabilities and advancements.

DDoS mitigation platforms don’t always spot the attack in time to prevent server overload, downtime, and the associated losses - making this network visibility POC write-up all the more intriguing. ?? SPOILER ALERT! ?? Whilst Bypass Switches and Network Packet Brokers add resilience to security and enable application performance monitoring, they are not security protection tools themselves. So their use in a POC for feeding traffic to a security tool uncovering and containing a DDoS attack before monitoring layers could see it is another example of how network visibility feeding data to security tools can significantly improve your posture. #DDoS #NetworkVisibility

Advanced capabilities like real-time data ingestion, AI-driven threat detection, and behaviour-based analytics require expertise and continuous management to realise their full potential. That’s why we offer a managed SIEM solution, leveraging our partnership with Sumo Logic to handle the complexity and ensure that our clients benefit from robust, proactive security with reduced operational burden. We can now offer our managed SIEM solution via G-Cloud making easier than ever for the public sector to procure our services.

Whilst all-IP delivery for broadcast content might be the aspiration, other methods like satellite and terrestrial will always play their part. This is a great read on why it’s so important to bridge hybrid delivery networks with a platform that lets you monitor a diverse range of broadcast delivery technologies.

Programmable silicon in Network Packet Brokers is a potential game-changer for network monitoring and aggregation, by enabling advanced wire-rate traffic manipulation features, such as: ?? Automatic tunnelled IP address filtering and load balancing within GRE tunnels and all well-known encapsulation formats ?? Header stripping (removing protocol encapsulations) such as GTP, MPLS, VXLAN, GENEVE and ERSPAN to allow data to be sent to probes that don’t understand these headers ??? Wire-rate de-duplication to remove duplicate data seen at multiple locations – ensuring tools are not burdened with traffic they don’t need We at Red Helix provide, support, and manage Keysight’s Network Visibility solutions for major network owners and will be happy to assist you with your network visibility and monitoring upgrades.

A critical ingredient to security resilience and network monitoring is the ability to access just the required network / cloud data, and to send it to your security and monitoring tools in the speeds and formats they require. These key functions are enabled Network Packet Brokers (NPB), and this is a great resource that covers the key considerations for selecting the right NPBs for your needs.
