"Now more than ever, organizations require in-depth visibility into their infrastructure to ensure performance and security as network growth and complexity continue to evolve," said Adam Powers, CTO of Lancope. "Our 'University of NetFlow' seminars are designed to help organizations take full advantage of network flow technology such as NetFlow and IPFIX to cost-effectively boost network visibility, performance and security."

At a 'University of NetFlow' seminar, attendees learn how to:

• Gain end-to-end visibility into all network and application traffic across physical and virtual networks
• Obtain a real-time overview of network usage, performance and host integrity
• Investigate and mitigate advanced persistent threats (APTs) and other zero-day attacks that bypass perimeter defenses
• Demonstrate faster incident resolution and obtain detailed forensic data
• Achieve and maintain compliance with a variety of industry regulations

By collecting and analyzing NetFlow through enterprise-ready solutions such as Lancope's StealthWatch® System, organizations can obtain comprehensive network visibility for vastly improved IT infrastructure. Through sophisticated behavioral analysis, StealthWatch detects both zero-day attacks that bypass perimeter defenses, as well as insider threats including policy violations, device misconfigurations, network misuse and data leakage.

StealthWatch eliminates network blind spots, cuts network and security management costs and dramatically reduces the time from problem onset to resolution – at a fraction of the cost of traditional monitoring solutions. The system is scalable to meet the needs of even the largest networks, analyzing up to three million flows per second, and also provides visibility into virtual networks.
