NetWitness, a provider of advanced threat intelligence and real-time network forensics, has unveiled an enhanced version of NextGen network security monitoring platform, ‘Visualize’.
The company said that the new platform analyses and observe large volumes of rendered network content objects such as audio, documents, images, and video.
NetWitness uses a full packet capture infrastructure to provide application layer content and context to the security professional, while Visualize leverages this recording and analytic platform by providing security teams the capability to visually zoom in and out of a defined collection of data using their mouse, and to drill down and observe exactly what transpired over the course of time or relative to any common reference point.
Tim Belcher, chief technology officer at NetWitness, said: "Visualize represents an absolute breakthrough in the way security users can query and interact with data from recorded network traffic.
"With this new offering at their fingertips, users can quickly and efficiently scan through large volumes of objects captured by NetWitness, render a visual timeline of an event, deeply interrogate and review all the related activity, and understand all the rich metadata associated with each object.
Visualize will help security teams get the definitive answers they need faster, and help them to make smarter risk management decisions."
Visualize enables users to leverage all the rules, keyword searches, and other content filters created in NetWitness Informer to further refine and process the presented information.
It also provides exfiltration of proprietary information; employee investigation and policy management; and data leakage monitoring.
