NIKSUN's approach to network problem solving is a revolutionary application of multiple scientific disciplines that come together to facilitate high levels of visibility and awareness into global enterprise networks. NIKSUN's state-of-the-art network mapping and measurement models institute immediate identification of network anomalies and deep packet forensic analysis for efficient root-cause discovery and incident-response.
Initiatives to assure governance over business procedures, maintain a strong line of defense from inward and outward malice, ensure the success of applications, services and internal and external policy mandates provide additional impetus for organizations to clearly understand how media and data traffic moves across the network.
NIKSUN facilitates the tools necessary to measure the scope of security breaches and application/service degradations. It accurately informs analysts on the users and business assets that were impacted by operational or security related incidents, the information, application or service that was compromised and where the root cause of the problem lies so remediation efforts can be actuated.
NIKSUN delivers its powerful solution on a single platform architecture that captures network traffic at real-time line speeds and warehouses all network information into a statistical and full-packet based Network Knowledge Warehouse. The NIKSUN solution generates real-time alerts based on network performance thresholds, policy rules and signature/anomaly definitions to inform users of network problems. Each alert is directly linked to corresponding statistical and packet data in the warehouse. Users may then leverage the data mining capabilities of the warehouse to conduct forensic analysis and initiate incident response and recovery efforts.
The NIKSUN forensic analysis engine provides extensive opportunities for real-time and retrospective network, application and service management, security surveillance, forensic reconstruction and policy compliance verification.
The NIKSUN architecture facilitates true enterprise visibility that empowers organizations to make fast, accurate decisions that assure network performance, security and compliance goals are met and integrity of the enterprise network is protected.
