Networks can’t afford lockdowns: Identifying cyber-threats before they become endemic

The sudden increase in cyber-attacks during the pandemic can mostly be attributed to the unexpected shift to remote working, which caused delays in the deployment of security projects as IT teams struggled with overloaded VPNs and a host of personal devices that needed to be patched remotely. Just last month, US cybersecurity firm FireEye was hit by what it suspects to be state-sponsored cyber-attackers looking to steal information on FireEye’s government clients. How did it happen and how could it have been mitigated? Read more in our latest blog post by Stephan Klokow.

DPI and VPNs: It's obfuscated ...

Virtual private networks (VPN), such as Psiphon, TOR and NordVPN, and related obfuscation techniques use various obfuscation techniques, including encryption and dynamic IP addresses, to ensure the security and privacy of data. The same techniques, inadvertently, create huge blind spots in network monitoring, leaving the network open to attacks and abuse. This article assesses how next-gen DPI engines R&S®PACE 2 and R&S®vPACE, via a rich repository of VPN signatures, identify VPN services and deliver application and threat awareness.

Six reasons why DPI is better than DNS analysis

As networks evolve and encryption becomes more prevalent, traditional DNS analysis is struggling to keep up. While DNS provides essential insights into domain activity, its limitations leave gaps in security and traffic visibility. DPI fills these gaps by providing a more complete view of network activity, ensuring both stronger security and better performance. Learn how DPI goes beyond DNS queries to analyze every packet of data, even in encrypted traffic.

Deliver cost-effective, high-performance network analytics with optimized DPI

Deep packet inspection (DPI) is essential for real-time visibility in modern IP networks, driven by escalating traffic volumes. As vendors innovate to meet demand, the DPI market offers a wide variety of solutions. When selecting a DPI solution, the critical factors are cost and performance. Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) analysis ensures alignment with long-term operational and financial needs, considering all expenses over the lifetime of the solution. Learn how DPI software from ipoque is optimized to reduce TCO and improve performance for today's demanding networks.
