While we keep hearing about network migrating to 40G or 100G, it's important to note that many networks still consist of 1 Gigabit copper network links, and will require network traffic visibility. Copper Network Taps are the best way to...
Air gaps and segmentation are common concepts to secure OT networks, with the goal of minimizing the harm of a breach and threats by isolating it to a limited part of the network. Unless an attacker obtains physical access to an air-gapped...
With ever-present and growing security threats from both foreign and domestic sources, safeguarding utility networks and communication infrastructure has become paramount to protecting utility grids from hacking and providing uninterrupted...
With so many mission-critical processes relying on network connectivity, data center outages simply can’t be tolerated. And yet, nearly one-third of all data centers experience an outage annually. According to an ITIC survey, 86% of...
If you’ve previously read the Garland Technology blog, you know the importance that network TAPs have with regard to guaranteeing your network security and visibility. These devices provide a complete copy of traffic, passing data to your...
The aggregation layer, and thus the four-tiered approach to network visibility grew out of the need to maximize the ROI of NPBs and monitoring and security tools. Before we talk about the aggregation layer and the benefits it brings, let’s...
