POWERED BY posture . That is the transformative power of a GigaSECURE Security Delivery Platform .
Why should organisations not rely on inline tools ?
Inline tools ( as shown on the previous page ) present the following challenges for both network and security teams :
• Introduces multiple points of failure
• Physical interfaces must match the network
• Degrades network and application performance
• Wastes cycles on traffic it cannot analyse
• Does not scale to network speeds
• Disruptive to upgrade or replace
THE RESULTS ARE A MORE EFFECTIVE SECURITY ARCHITECTURE WITH AN IMPROVED SECURITY POSTURE .
• Cannot be moved to or from out-of-band operation ( detection vs prevention )
What are the advantages of the platform increasing network visibility ?
By providing pervasive network visibility across public cloud ( Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure ), private cloud ( Openstack ), virtualised and physical environments , the GigaSECURE SDP maximises the security tools efficacy and results in a more simplified and effective security architecture with an improved security posture .
The GigaSECURE Security Delivery Platform
How easily does the platform fit into existing IT environments ?
The platform fits passively into the existing IT environments .
What are the advantages of the platform only sending traffic to the security tool it actually needs ?
By sending only the traffic the security tools need you gain the following advantages :
• Increased tool efficiency ( reduces tool costs by 10 times and saves 50 % on time spent on tools )
• Eliminates waste cycles on traffic it cannot analyse
• Eliminates the costly need to upgrade an existing security tool
The integrated physical and logical inline bypass capability is a key component of the GigaSECURE Security Delivery Platform that enables security administrators to simultaneously maximise threat prevention , security resilience and network uptime . Using this approach , security architects can stop tool sprawl , cut tool costs and significantly shorten the time required to roll out threat prevention initiatives in their organisation . •
