Net Optics and VMware Team Up to Deliver Full Visibility, Automation, Flexibility and Scalability for Comprehensive Moni
Enterprises have been utilizing Tap solutions for network traffic access for many years. Traffic capture, analysis, replay, and logging are now part of every well-managed network environment. In recent years, the significant shift to virtualization—with penetration exceeding 50%—is yielding great benefits in efficiency. However, today’s virtualization-based deployments create challenges for network security, compliance, and performance monitoring. This is because Inter-VM traffic is optimized to speed up connections and minimize network utilization. This imposes invisibility on physical tools unable to extend easily into the new environments. Costly new virtualization-specific tools plus training can affect the economic benefits and cost-savings of virtualizing. Currently, many tools suffer from limited throughput, hypervisor incompatibility, and excessive resource utilization.

Virtualization in the Data Center, More Than a Trend!
Virtualization has provided network architects with a new level of flexibility and cost-savings in their server deployments. At the same time, that new level of flexibility has created new opportunities for potentially unlawful activity to be concealed or easily moved across legal jurisdictions to avoid prosecution. View this informative webinar to learn about:
Unique enforcement challenges inherent to Virtualization
Compliance challenges created by Virtualized environments
Methods for thwarting virtual machine jurisdiction ‘hopping’
As network security threats continue to multiply, so do the tools to battle them: firewalls, activity monitors, intrusion prevention systems (IPSs) and so forth. To defend your network, you need a reliable arsenal of these tools, but what if one of them stops performing?
Presented by Net Optics' Product Manager Lannie Rhodes and Director of Access Solutions Daniel Aharon this webinar dives into the rising security challenges facing your network and cover the latest trends in defending against them. Additionally, we discuss:
Advantages of utilizing a Bypass Switch to protect your network against security tool failure
Methods for developing monitoring redundancies for supporting uptime Service Level Agreements
Best Practices for maximizing your High Availability Networks
At this year's FOSE 2011 conference, Government Computer News (GCN) awarded Phantom Virtual Tap the Best of FOSE / Best Networking Product for Government award. The Tap delivers unprecedented total visibility into formerly murky traffic passing between VMs on hypervisor stacks. With its ability to tap traffic between virtual servers (VMs) on a physical server, the Phantom Virtual Tap heralds a new era of network compliance, management, and security for virtualized data centers.

Best practice network deployments make use of Taps to route, aggregate, and regenerate traffic that is then sent to these tools to make use of their full capabilities. In addition, bypass Taps are used to ensure a failed monitoring appliance doesn’t bring your network traffic to a standstill. Taps form the foundation for implementing an intelligent access and monitoring infrastructure.
2011 is the year of the 10G rollout
10, 40 and 100 Gbps networks are under growing pressure to carry skyrocketing volumes of mission-critical business applications, performance-sensitive video and VoIP traffic, private and proprietary data, and crucial Internet connectivity. Monitoring the network to ensure availability, performance, security, and compliance has never been more important.
Simultaneously, network monitoring solutions developed for 1G networks are now mature and for most enterprises represent significant investments in capital equipment, process development, staffing, training and experience. The challenge for organizations is how to scale their security solution up to 10 Gigabit speeds (and beyond).
To take two examples, traffic recorder performance is limited by the sustained write speeds of disk arrays while IPSs run enormously complex algorithms constrained by CPU performance. Simply buying a bigger, faster box is either cost-prohibitive or it simply doesn’t exist.
Load Balancing—A Proven Method for Enhancing Performance
Load balancing is a well-understood technology that has been used in the past to distribute transactions across pools of servers. Load balancing monitoring traffic across multiple tools is an obvious extension of the concept. However, monitoring load balancing presents several unique challenges of its own.
What you will gain from this webinar
During this webinar we will present several use cases for load balancing monitoring access. By discussing these cases we will establish requirements for monitoring load balancing and suggest strategies for meeting them.

This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).
