Company News About NetTAP Revolutionizes Network Visibility with Advanced Bypass-Mode TAPs and Packet Brokers
In today’s hyper-connected digital landscape, enterprises face unprecedented challenges in monitoring, securing, and optimizing their networks. NetTAP, a leader in network visibility solutions, addresses these demands with its cutting-edge Network TAPs and Network Packet Broker (NPB) devices. Engineered for bypass deployment, these tools empower organizations to capture, preprocess, and analyze raw traffic data with surgical precision—without disrupting network operations.
NetTAP’s solutions operate in passive monitoring mode, mirroring or splitting traffic via optical or electrical methods to ensure zero impact on production networks. Once raw data is captured, the built-in preprocessing engine transforms it into actionable insights through:
| Feature Category | Key Capabilities |
|---|---|
| Traffic Classification | Protocol recognition (e.g., HTTP/3, QUIC, IoT protocols), application identification |
| Data Optimization | Deduplication, SSL/TLS decryption, tunnel decapsulation (VXLAN, GTP), data slicing |
| Security Processing | Keyword matching, PII/PCI data masking, payload filtering |
| Traffic Distribution | Load balancing, replication to 10+ tools (SIEM, NDR, APM), aggregation |
This granular preprocessing ensures that downstream systems receive only high-fidelity, context-rich data, maximizing ROI on security and analytics investments.
| Use Case | NetTAP Solution | Key Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Data Center Traffic Monitoring | East-West/North-South traffic mirroring + threat detection | Zero Trust compliance, reduced attack surface |
| Business Performance Analytics | Metadata extraction for SLA monitoring & app optimization | 30% faster root cause analysis |
| IT Infrastructure Health | Bandwidth utilization tracking & misconfiguration alerts | 99.9% network uptime |
| Background Traffic Cleansing | Non-critical data filtering (e.g., backups, streaming) | 50% reduction in monitoring tool workload |
| Centralized Bypass Governance | Unified dashboard for distributed network visibility | 80% faster compliance reporting |
| Emerging Protocol Support | Auto-update for 5G, IoT, and encrypted protocol recognition | Future-proof architecture |
| Differentiator | Technical Specification |
|---|---|
| Scalability | Supports 1G/10G/25G/40G/100G networks; virtual/physical deployment options |
| Compliance | GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS via data anonymization & encrypted traffic analysis |
| Tool Integration | Splunk, Elastic, Wireshark, Kafka, and custom API compatibility |
| Performance | <1ms latency; 99.999% reliability even at 100G line rate |
NetTAP’s bypass-mode solutions redefine how enterprises harness network data. By combining non-intrusive capture with AI-driven preprocessing, organizations can now achieve faster threat response, smarter resource allocation, and deeper operational insights—all while maintaining 100% network uptime.
For industries reliant on real-time data—finance, healthcare, cloud providers, and critical infrastructure—NetTAP isn’t just a tool; it’s a strategic asset in the race toward digital resilience.
