Network Visibility

ixia NETWORK VISIBILITY/TAKING A LOOK AT THE NEXT BIG THING IN IT As organizations roll out more business-critical applications, managing network and application performance becomes increasingly complex and costly. And with today's rising data volume, many monitoring tools are overwhelmed with network traffic while others remain underutilized. In today's perilous world of hackers, compliance requirements, tight money, and the need for more efficiency in the face of rapid data growth, what does complete NETWORK VISIBILITY really mean? Network Visibility Network Monitoring Switch The ability of all monitoring tools to gain accurate, actionable and complete data from all segments of the network to monitor for security and performance. Technology designed to provide complete network visibility to monitoring tools and applications in order to optimize their performance. It resides in the network or data center between SPANS or TAPS and monitoring tools, and ensures that each monitoring tool gets exactly the right data needed for analysis. HOW DOES IT WORK?

IT departments need greater visibility into networks and applications to make it all work. 5200 40 trillion 88% The number of gigabytes in the digital universe by 2020 - that's more than 5200 gigabytes for every man, woman, and child on Earth The percentage of companies that say they currently analyze less than half the metric data they collect every two days "Every two days we create as much information as we did from the dawn of civilization up until 2003." Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google EMERGING TECHNOLOGY Faster, higher-performance networks and emerging trends such as virtualization, SDN and cloud are the future, but they make monitoring the old-school way next to impossible. 4.3 zettabytes >3 out of 5 The predicted global cloud traffic per year by 2016 - equivalent to the data on more than 1 trillion DVDS More than 3 in 5 large U.S. companies are currently implementing or have already implemented server virtualization. 95% The percentage of service providers planning to deploy 100G Ethernet interfaces within the year to keep up with customers' growing demand for data BYOD Personal devices on enterprise networks can be bandwidth hogs and assumed security risks, increasing the need for active monitoring of the corporate network. 89% 1 out of 4 >10% The percentage of global IT professionals reporting that smartphones or tablets connect to their corporate networks The number of employed U.S. The percentage of organizations that are "fully aware" of all the devices accessing their network adults who have been a victim of malware or hacking on a personal electronic device CYBER-SECURITY RISK Threats against networks are growing in frequency and sophistication, requiring next-generation monitoring 79% $110 billion The percentage of IT security professionals who expect a major cyber terrorism attack within the year The total global direct financial loss due to cybercrime including attacks, malware and phishing in 2012 97% The percentage of IT security professionals who feel network visibility and monitoring is "important" or "extremely important" in preventing damage from malicious attacks "Mobile Devices Will Outnumber People by the End of the Year" Mashable 2013 "Cisco Visual Networking Index: Global Mobile Data Traffic Forecast Update, 2012" Cisco Systems May 2013 *4G LTE Traffic Expected to Increase 200 Percent This Year" Techno Buffalo.
