Description

LiveWire is an advanced platform for network packet capture and forensic analysis that meticulously gathers and archives detailed packet information across physical, virtual, on-premises, and cloud environments. It aims to provide Network Operations and Security teams with comprehensive insights into network traffic, spanning from data centers to SD-WAN edges, remote locations, and cloud infrastructures, effectively addressing the gaps left by monitoring that relies solely on telemetry. Featuring real-time packet capture capabilities, LiveWire allows for selective storage and analysis through sophisticated workflows, visualizations, and correlation tools; it intelligently identifies encrypted traffic and only retains essential data such as headers or metadata, optimizing disk space while maintaining forensic integrity. The platform further supports "intelligent packet capture," transforming packet-level information into enriched flow-based metadata, known as LiveFlow, which can seamlessly integrate with the associated monitoring tool, BlueCat LiveNX. Overall, LiveWire enhances the ability to analyze network traffic efficiently while ensuring critical data is preserved for future investigations.

Description

StreamGroomers oversee and manage the flow of traffic within Wide Area Networks (WAN). They function seamlessly, regardless of the specific network framework, positioned between the LAN and WAN access router, with control facilitated through an out-of-band management setup. To guarantee uninterrupted service, they employ high-availability architectures. StreamGroomers conduct real-time analysis of network traffic at wire speed, gathering extensive measurements and packet data from various points throughout the network. From this information, indicators are generated in real-time to reflect the current state of network performance. The collected data is then consolidated and transmitted to a central repository with minimal impact on network resources, allowing for rapid analysis and troubleshooting, while also maintaining thorough records for forensic purposes. Additionally, the Deep Packet Inspection feature of the StreamGroomer examines Layer 2-7 packet data to accurately identify applications and user sessions based on a predefined catalog of over 400 services, thus enhancing network visibility and control. This capability not only aids in performance monitoring but also supports proactive network management strategies.
