Security Assurance. Arbor Edge Defense.

[Audio] NetScout's Arbor Edge Defense offers a reliable solution for customers seeking to secure their network against malicious threats and detect doubtful outbound activity. This stateless technology takes advantage of Arbor's particular, worldwide risk intelligence combined with NetScout's ATLAS intelligence feed for a first and last defense for inbound attacks and outbound malevolent communications. This guarantees Smart Visibility and Smarter Visibility of the network boundary..

[Audio] NetScout's Smart Visibility, enabled by the Smart Data concept, offers a comprehensive solution for volumetric, TCP state-exhaustion and application layer attacks. It reveals security insights beyond the usual policies employed by firewalls, load balancers, IPS and WAFs, offering a total view of network traffic. This means it can detect and tackle malicious activities behind volumetric, TCP state-exhaustion and application layer attacks, such as NTP and DNS amplifications, UDP and TCP floods, TCP SYN floods, slow TCP connections, HTTP SlowLoris, etc. By providing real-time visibility of the security risks posed by these attacks, NetScout can help avert expensive damages resulting from security breaches..

[Audio] Security teams are increasingly being tasked with protecting their organizations from a variety of cyber threats, which necessitates a constantly changing security stack. Networks Firewalls (NGFWs) are increasingly taking a role as an alternative to Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPSs), featuring URL blocking capabilities. However, such an arrangement can lead to a particularly complex situation. To help manage the influx of various forms of Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI), Threat Intelligence Platforms (TIPs) are being implemented. Threat Intelligence Gateways (TIGs) are also making an appearance, furthering the pressure off of NGFW, though this also adds further complexity to the stack. NetScout's Smart Visibility, enabled by Smart Data, is available as a solution to untangle this level of complexity and help organizations safeguard against cyber threats..

[Audio] NetScout's Smart Visibility Appliances offer customers a tool to rapidly identify, detect, and counteract DDoS attacks. The APS/AED 2600 and APS/AED 2800 appliances offer a wide variety of features, up to 8 x 10 GigE Network interfaces, and the ability to upgrade licenses via software. They offer 40 Gbps of protection against DDoS attacks assisting in maintaining a well-run network. Furthermore, these appliances offer the capacity to block up to 3+ million IoCs and can block IP addresses, fully qualified domain names, and URLs for an additional layer of cyber-attack prevention..

[Audio] Recent years have seen a noticeable surge in the size, frequency and complexity of DDoS assaults. According to our 10th Annual Worldwide Infrastructure Security Report, the average size of a 1Gbps attack has grown to 20Gbps, with some reaching as large as 500Gbps. An astonishing 100% of organizations report that they are facing DDoS attacks, with 12% attributing 500 or more per month to this type of incident. As organizations are now routinely targeted by multifaceted attacks, the need for DDoS protection services is growing. To provide organizations with reliable defense, Arbor, powered by NetScout, has developed solutions such as always-on instant mitigation, “bump-in-the-wire” stateless packet forwarding, “fail open”/”fail close” hardware bypass, inline “inactive” mode for “what if” situations, up to 40Gbps throughput, and 1Gbps and 10Gbps copper and fiber optic interfaces for inline detection and mitigation. The Arbor Edge is prepared to extend a helping hand in shielding your networks..

[Audio] NetScout provides Smart Visibility enabled by Smart Data to help customers detect and block outbound malicious communication before it can cause costly data breaches. With our dual functionality of DDoS and Bulk Blocking of IoCs it eliminates the need for a Threat Intelligence Gateway or IoC processing on NGFW. Our contextual threat intelligence provides insight to targeted attacks and additional information about blocked IoCs to help security teams determine risk and hunt for compromise. All of this is done with the use of REST API and standards such as STIX/TAXII for easy integration into your existing security stack and processes..

[Audio] Network Packet Broker and Passive & Active Inline Tap technology form the basis of NetScout's Smart Visibility, allowing for fast recognition and resolution of network issues and performance irregularities. These core technologies are coupled with Smart Data, enabling Smart Visibility to pinpoint the source of the issue and offering up feasible solutions for optimizing performance..

[Audio] A packet flow switching appliance is a hardware device used to assess and control the movement of packets across networks. It allows for efficient pathways from the network to the tools, enhancing traffic flow and providing a greater degree of visibility and control. NetScout's Smart Visibility, incorporating the Smart Data idea, goes beyond the packet flow switching, granting smarter monitoring and control functions for networks. Thank you for listening..
