Four ways network traffic analysis benefits security teams
2020-09-11 05:00

To improve organizational security postures in this new hybrid network environment, Security Operations and Network Operations teams are becoming fast friends.

Gartner has recently changed the name of one of their market segments from "Network Traffic Analysis" to "Network Detection and Response" to reflect the shift in demand for more security-focused network analysis solutions.

Network traffic analysis uses a combination of advanced analytics, machine learning and rule-based detection to identify suspicious activities throughout the network.

The benefits of network detection and response or network traffic analysis go far beyond the traditional realm of NetOps.

Full network visibility allows security teams to see all the relevant information through a security delivery layer, use behavioral-based or automated threat detection methods, and be able to capture and store relevant data for deep forensics to investigate and respond to any incident.
