This provides a better solution to improve the efficiency and utility of your monitoring tools.

    • Deep packet inspection and filtering grooms traffic to relieve overburdened monitoring tools
    • Extended burst protection, available with the Advanced Feature Module, offers traffic management, and protection to online businesses subject to bursts of activity
    • Installs, configures, and sends clean traffic to appliances in less than thirty minutes
    • Time stamping and data masking aid in compliance and working with sensitive data
