SAN FRANCISCO / RSA CONFERENCE, March 2, 2010 -- Net Optics, Inc., the global leader in intelligent network access solutions, today expanded its product portfolio with the release of the new Director Pro Fabric Access Switch and Gig Zero Delay Tap. Director Pro is the industry's first network access solution providing pre-filtering of data via deep packet inspection of network traffic to optimize the performance of security and monitoring tools. The patent-pending Gig Zero Delay Tap is the industry's only 10/100/1000BaseT Tap with true zero-delay operation to prevent network disruptions in highly sensitive industries such as financial services. Combined as part of a comprehensive monitoring access platform, the new Director Pro and Gig Zero Delay solutions ensure 100 percent network visibility to improve network and application performance, increase IT efficiency and reduce business risk.
Designed for enterprise data centers, cloud computing providers, and telecommunication operators, Director Pro combines the award-winning features of Net Optics Director with desired industry innovations including Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), dynamic load balancing, and bi-directional port configuration. Director Pro's DPI capabilities can be leveraged as part of an overall security strategy, pre-screening and pre-filtering traffic to make network Intrusion Prevention Systems, Data Loss Prevention, Activity Monitoring and Web Security Gateways more efficient. In addition, Payload Pattern Matching can be utilized for policy management by specifying the strings that require action. Similarly, dynamic load balancing evenly distributes packets to groups of monitoring appliances ensuring that no appliance is bottlenecked or under-utilized.
"Direct access to 100 percent of network traffic is critical to an overall security infrastructure , both for proactive threat management and ongoing business continuity and compliance," said Ilan Matsliah, manager of the security and networking department at Migdal Insurance Company. "With their Director family of products, Net Optics has continually evolved the feature set to deliver more granularity into network traffic at increasingly higher speeds, thereby maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of our network performance and security monitoring tools. With Director Pro's new DPI functionality, Net Optics is once again showing the type of innovation we've continuously seen from the company." (continued...)
