Visibility To Understand, Act, and Resolve Cyber Threats Faster

NETSCOUT leverages deep packet inspection at scale to generate high-fidelity, actionable metadata from real network traffic, surpassing traditional log or metric-based observability. Our Adaptive Service Intelligence (ASI) technology condenses wire data into real-time, context-rich performance and security indicators, making it possible to rapidly drill down to the root cause of issues. Meanwhile, our DDoS protection is differentiated by our integration of advanced AI/ML, deep real-time global threat intelligence, and unique “always-on” stateless edge protection architecture, providing comprehensive, adaptive, and automated defense against modern multi-vector attacks that’s superior to many traditional, static or single-layer solutions.

NETSCOUT feeds packet-derived, context-rich data into SIEMs, firewalls, and threat intelligence platforms to enhance detection and investigation capabilities. We bridge critical observability gaps by continuously monitoring lateral movement, encrypted communications, and remote site activity, areas where traditional sensors and logs may miss emerging threats. This expanded visibility empowers security teams to perform in-depth forensics and correlate events across distributed environments in real time. The result is a more complete security posture and faster coordinated defense.

NETSCOUT provides automated, immediate root cause analysis through enriched, real-time packet-level insights. Our data-driven workflows and service-oriented dashboards allow operators to rapidly triage incidents, instantly visualize session details, and validate fixes without hours of manual investigation. With NETSCOUT security and IT teams can cut through noise, ensuring faster diagnosis and resolution of performance or security events.

NETSCOUT continuously analyzes traffic across the entire IT ecosystem with high-fidelity observability, catching subtle indicators of compromise, attack patterns, and anomalous behaviors in real time. Our solutions combine synthetic testing and packet analytics to monitor encrypted and non-encrypted flows, lateral movement, and remote site activities, providing proactive detection even before signatures are updated or endpoint alerts are triggered. By delivering context-rich, immediately actionable intelligence, NETSCOUT empowers you to stop threats before they escalate.

NETSCOUT Arbor Edge Defense uses real-time Smart Data and threat intelligence to automatically detect and block volumetric attacks at the network perimeter. Arbor solutions monitor both inbound and outbound traffic, stopping DDoS attempts before they reach critical infrastructure and enabling rapid mitigation through intelligent, automated policies. Our global threat analytics and scalable instrumentation ensure the fastest response to evolving DDoS tactics, minimizing downtime and business risk.

Yes, NETSCOUT can see into encrypted traffic by leveraging its instrumentation to inspect and analyze both encrypted and non-encrypted packets at Layer 7. This capability enables visibility into SSL/TLS flows, allowing security teams to assess encrypted application behaviors, detect malicious activity hidden within encrypted sessions, and conduct forensic investigations that would be impossible using log-only observability.

Yes. NETSCOUT provides granular, continuous verification of network entities, behaviors, and interactions at every microsegment. We enable detailed analysis of each session and user, monitoring for suspicious access or privilege escalation across all environments. Our real-time telemetry delivers the context necessary to enforce policy, validate device integrity, and trigger rapid remediation as soon as policy violations or risky behaviors are detected.

NETSCOUT helps reduce investigation time to minutes or even seconds by automating packet capture, contextual data enrichment, and root cause analysis. Our platform enables SOC teams to perform deep forensics, correlate network events, and pinpoint threats rapidly, often eliminating lengthy manual data gathering steps. Operators can visualize incidents, drill down into session details, and validate corrective actions in real time—for both performance and security events.

NETSCOUT cybersecurity is highly effective for OT networks, because our agentless, packet-based Smart Data can monitor, diagnose, and secure industrial systems without impacting sensitive devices or disrupting operations. NETSCOUT provides deep visibility into OT protocols, detects anomalies and threats specific to manufacturing, energy, transportation, and critical infrastructure, and supports compliance requirements for asset integrity and safety. Our unified approach ensures that both IT and OT teams benefit from consistent, high-fidelity observability and proactive incident response.
