With the growing number of freely available software, IT savvy users are now bypassing end-point policy controls and installing applications in the work environment. With perimeter security like firewalls, IPS, proxies and web filters lacking the ability to control application traffic, potentially thousands of unaccounted applications could be communicating over a typical corporate network. Enterprises without the ability to have full visibility over application and user activities risk expose themselves to risks such as data loss, liability arising from illegal online activities and bandwidth abuse
New Challenges in Protecting the Enterprise
The enterprise network is the heart of any modern enterprise. How can we:
- Stop malware C & C communication?
- Secure core enterprise applications?
- Prevent use of unauthorized applications?
- Manage allowable applications?
- Monitor new unknown traffic that may be malicious?
A Return to Security Fundamentals
It is time for enterprises to move from a reactive to a more pre-emptive security posture by deploying tools that provied deep network visibility and true application intelligence. Only with the proper identification and accounting of all application and user traffic can we improve situational awareness of our networks, allowing administrators to be alerted to potential threats before they arise.
How Niometrics Can Help
Niometrics’ award-winning Application Recognition and Control System (ARCS) analyzes network traffic at the application layer, offering enterprise owners unprecedented insight over user behavior and trends, as well as control over application traffic.
A flexible core recognition engine identifies an industry leading 5,500 applications, services, and protocols. A traffic telemetry service helps discover new applications and improves detection on evolving traffic, while an open architecture allows further customization to meet highly-specific user requirements.
Niometrics provides enterprises with the ability to fully understand and account for all network, application, and user traffic, allowing them to achieve Total Network Awareness.
