Endace Demonstrates At RSA Conference 2010 How IDS Based on 100 Percent Packet Capture Improves Mean-Time-To-Resolution
SAN FRANCISCO— RSA Conference 2010 (Booth 2151)— February 24, 2010 — Endace, a provider of security and IT solutions based on its DAG® (Data Acquisition and Generation) high speed packet capture technology, today announced that it will be demonstrating at RSA how its recently launched next-generation Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can radically improve mean-time-to-resolution by providing security professionals with reliable, meaningful and actionable information in real time.
RSA is taking place March 1-5 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, and Endace is exhibiting in booth 2151. Booth demonstrations will take place every 30 minutes and will show how Endace’s IDS enables security teams to identify, forensically investigate and respond to real, every day security alerts such as Conficker, the Zeus bot, as well as more sophisticated hacking attempts.
“Our ability to not only capture and analyse every single packet right up to 40 Gb/s, but also replay and examine whole segments of network traffic after the event gives security teams a far more effective tool kit for analysing and responding to network threats,” said Mike Riley, chief executive officer of Endace.
In addition, Matt Jonkman, Chairman of the OISF (Open Internet Security Foundation) and president of Emerging Threats, the community based SNORT ® rule provider, will be telling the OISF story at the Endace booth every day.
“As a primary sponsor of the OISF, we are delighted to have Matt join us on the booth,” said Riley. “We believe that the OISF security engine will be a core feature in the security systems of the future, and we’re pleased to have Matt with us to share the project’s progress.”
Recently announced, Endace’s IDS solution is more effective than competing solutions because it can capture all network traffic at speeds as high as 40 gigabits per second, when other products tend to drop packets and miss vulnerabilities they contain. Endace’s approach is based on the company’s 100-percent packet capture technology.
In addition, Endace IDS allows for packet storage and replay for all network traffic, which allows for very effective forensics analysis. With threat detection, rules policy management, alerting and forensic analysis, Endace’s solution supports multiple security solutions in one product, eliminating multiple boxes and their related heat and power-consumption costs.
