1 Network Monitoring and Security in Hybrid Networks Jason Echols

2 The MOST TRUSTED names in networking trust Test Security Visibility Enterprises trust IXIA to: Assess vendor equipment and applications Improve network security posture Improve network and application visibility and performance Service Providers trust IXIA to: Improve and speed service delivery Speed roll out of next gen services Improve network and application visibility and performance Equipment Manufacturers trust IXIA to: Develop next generation devices Speed time to market Improve performance and reliability Chip Fabricators trust IXIA to: Validate protocol conformance Speed time to market

3 3 Topics Industry Data on Change in the Network Network Visibility Challenges Customer ROI Examples Example Network Visibility Architectures

13 Benefits of Visibility Architecture Deployment Security Services Firm Challenge: Before we deployed the Ixia solution, we were collecting TCP dumps to UNIX boxes and using custom scripting to try and compare traffic on each side of the firewall Ultimately, we took service penalty hits because it took a long time to identify and resolve the issue. IT Manager Hard ROI (5yr. Vs $150k solution) Reduced cost of instrumentation per Site (4:1) $200,000 Reduced SLA penalties $50,000 TOTAL Hard ROI $250,000 Soft ROI 13 Escalation staff can cover more incidents per engineer Reduces future costs for access and instrumentation, reduces penalty risk for service failures

14 Benefits of Visibility Architecture Deployment University of Texas Challenges: Volume was really becoming an issue and dropping packets was simply not acceptable - CISO Lost data from overloaded switches Rapid Growth with mandated monitoring 750,000 Devices on state networks Hard ROI (5yr. Vs $700k solution) Reduced costs in IDS Monitors (4:1) Elimination in Smaller Sensors $216,000 Reduced Rack Space and Power $300,000 TOTAL Hard ROI $846,000 Soft ROI 14 $320,000 Reliable support for increasing volumes of data, inc. 40G Can add new tools without stressing or endangering primary monitoring
