You can't secure what you can't see

Visibility is the foundation of a safe and secure network.

Today, a network security breach can result in costly downtime, lost business, lawsuits, and a tarnished reputation. Approximately 40% of global organizations are the victim of some form of ransomware attack this year - a 62% year-over-year increase. Sadly, every institution is a target:

Heavy Industry: Meat supplier JBS paid ransomware hackers $11 million.

Energy: In May The Colonial Pipeline paid a ransom of 75 bitcoin (or $4.4 million) within several hours of a ransomware exploit.

Finance: U.S. insurer U.S. insurer CNA Financial reportedly paid $40M to a ransomware gang following an attack.

Public health: An attack on the University of Vermont Medical Center cost ~$64M.

Local governments: An attack on the city of Baltimore cost $18.2M and took out the city’s 911 dispatch system.

Schools: Ransomware attacks are disrupting education at roughly 1,000 universities, colleges, and schools each year.

Our solutions

Solving your security concerns

The average network downtime from ransomware is 21 days. Even after mitigation, it takes IT teams an average of 287 days to fully recover from a breach and prepare to prevent new ones. This is where APCON's advanced network monitoring can help.

When comparing APCON against its competitors, APCON always comes out on top. Their technology, GUI, chassis, and approach have always been the best. Support is where I would rate them really, really high. APCON support members are friendly, knowledgeable, and can get on a call quickly. APCON is the leader in broker solutions.

Application Filtering

Traffic classification and filtering based on protocol or application, automatically detecting over 1605 applications and 418 protocols in real-time. Application Filtering can facilitate more efficient tool usage by filtering out low-risk traffic.

Pattern Matching

Search on individual packets or sessions. This is useful for ensuring HIPPA compliance, masking PII such as credit card or social security numbers, and enabling more efficient tool usage by filtering out low-risk flows.

Learn more

Traffic Shaping

Limit TX traffic to a user-specified average rate by buffering RX packets and transmitting them at steady, even flow. This is useful when tools are not able to handle traffic above a specific rate for extended periods of time.

Deep Packet Inspection

Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is used to monitor network traffic at the packet level to locate, identify, and classify packets of a specific type or those with a certain payload and react accordingly.

Network Data Deduplication

Traffic Deduplication improves monitoring tool efficiency, accuracy, and recording space requirements. Enable your monitoring tools to provide greater visibility while lowering overall costs.

Learn more

Packet Filtering

Our unique Packet Filtering provides pinpoint accuracy in delivering data to your network monitoring and security tools, eliminating oversubscription of egress ports and resulting in zero dropped packets.

Learn more

Packet Slicing

By removing payload data from packets and leaving only the header information, network monitoring switches can send more data across any given link to performance and security monitoring tools.

Learn more

Protocol (Header) Stripping

Our advanced Protocol (Header) Stripping features (now including VN-tag and GENEVE stripping) ensure your diagnostic tools will have complete network visibility and operate at maximum efficiency.

Learn more

Tunneling

Tunnel Initiation & Termination services can be applied to ports so they can be used as tunnel sources or destinations, allowing for the transfer of packets from one network to another regardless of protocol.

Learn more

NetFlow Generation

Offload processing from routers and other production equipment to increase efficiency and save costs. Consolidate NetFlow sources to reduce network traffic and simplify your monitoring architecture.

Distributed Load Balance

APCON’s IntellaView switch software supports Distributed Load Balance Groups: an upgrade of standard Load Balance Groups (LBGs) allowing expansion when the blade on which the LBG resides does not have available ports.

Application Analytics

APCON delivers complete data transparency, and that commitment now extends to applications.
