NetMon: Strengthening SOC with Network Traffic Analysis

Cyber threats are constantly evolving, jeopardizing critical business assets. NetMon provides the network visibility needed to protect against modern attacks, reduce incident response times, and enhance overall cyber resilience.

NetMon: Strengthening Your SOC with Network Traffic Analysis

In the era of digital transformation, where data is the lifeblood of business, enterprise security becomes critical. Cyber threats, from ransomware to targeted attacks, pose a real and growing danger, capable of causing significant financial and reputational damage. Leaders face the constant challenge of protecting their organizations from these threats, especially in the face of an ever-changing cybersecurity landscape.

One of the key challenges is insufficient network visibility. Traditional protection methods, such as firewalls and antivirus programs, focus primarily on the network perimeter, leaving internal traffic virtually invisible. This creates “blind spots” that attackers can exploit to penetrate the system, spread malware, and steal data. Moreover, investigating security incidents can be a complex and time-consuming process, requiring significant resources and time. Slow incident response can increase the damage from an attack and exacerbate its consequences.

Problem: Insufficient Visibility and Slow Response

Cybersecurity leaders today face a number of serious challenges:

• Insufficient network visibility inside the perimeter, allowing attackers to remain undetected.
• Inability to quickly and effectively investigate incidents due to data complexity and lack of necessary tools.
• Slow incident response, leading to increased damage and potential financial losses.
• The constant evolution of cyber threats, requiring continuous security system updates.
• Limited resources and qualified personnel for effective security management.

Traditional approaches to security, such as signature-based antivirus and firewalls, are often insufficient to counter modern, sophisticated attacks. Attackers are constantly improving their methods to bypass existing defenses and penetrate organizations’ networks.

The consequences of security incidents can be catastrophic for businesses, including financial losses, reputational damage, disruption of operations, and legal consequences. Therefore, leaders must take measures to strengthen their security system and increase cyber resilience to modern threats.

Solution: NetMon – Your Reliable Shield

NetMon provides a comprehensive solution to these problems, providing complete network visibility, accelerated incident investigation, and proactive protection against cyberattacks.

Complete Network Visibility

NetMon performs deep and comprehensive network activity monitoring, capturing and analyzing network traffic in real-time. This allows you to see everything that happens on the network, including data exchange between devices, users, and applications.

Specific examples of NetMon applications:

• Tracking suspicious traffic, such as unusual connections or data transfer during off-hours.
• Identifying anomalies in network traffic that may indicate malware infection or unauthorized access.
• Ensuring the security of cloud services used by the organization by monitoring traffic transmitted to and from the cloud.
• Identifying devices and users that may be compromised or pose a security threat.

Accelerated Incident Investigation

NetMon significantly simplifies and speeds up the incident investigation process with the following capabilities:

• Centralized monitoring of network activity, providing a single point of access to all necessary data.
• Effective data filtering, allowing you to quickly find the information you need and filter out false positives.
• Automated analysis that identifies suspicious activity and offers recommendations for further action.
• The ability to quickly search for information and reconstruct events, allowing you to understand how the incident occurred and which systems were affected.

By reducing response times, organizations can minimize the damage from cyberattacks and quickly restore their operations. NetMon allows security analysts to effectively solve their tasks, which significantly reduces the workload and, as a result, reduces costs.

Proactive Protection Against Cyberattacks

NetMon not only helps investigate incidents but also prevents them by identifying suspicious activity at an early stage.This allows you to:

• Detect botnets and other malicious programs that can be used to conduct cyberattacks.
• Identify attempts of unauthorized access to systems and data.
• Detect exploits and vulnerabilities that can be exploited by attackers.

NetMon integrates with other security systems, such as SIEM, to create a comprehensive security system. Thanks to this, organizations can more effectively detect and prevent cyberattacks.

Risk Analysis for Operational Security

The risk analysis provided by NetMon allows organizations to understand the most vulnerable areas of their network and take measures to protect them. This includes assessing the likelihood and impact of various cyber threats, as well as developing plans to mitigate these risks. An assessment of operational security allows you to identify weaknesses in the network configuration and fix them before they are exploited by attackers.

Business Benefits of Using NetMon

Investing in NetMon brings significant business benefits:

• Reducing incident response time, which directly affects the reduction of damage from cyberattacks. Company X reduced its response time by 60% thanks to NetMon’s automated analysis.
• Improving SOC efficiency, allowing the security team to work more effectively and focus on key tasks.
• Reducing operating costs through automation and optimization of security processes.
• Improving cyber resilience, making the enterprise more resistant to cyberattacks and allowing it to quickly recover from incidents.
• Improving overall enterprise security and protecting against financial and reputational losses.

Integration with SIEM

NetMon easily integrates with SIEM systems, such as Exabeam SIEM, to create a comprehensive security system. This SIEM integration simplifies data analysis, event correlation, and informed decision-making. NetMon provides the SIEM system with valuable data on network activity, which can be used to identify complex cyberattacks and threats. Security policies can be centrally managed and incidents can be responded to through SIEM.

Conclusion

NetMon is a powerful solution that provides organizations with complete network visibility, speeds up incident investigation, and increases cyber resilience. NetMon not only allows you to detect and investigate threats, but also to prevent them, protecting your business from financial and reputational losses.
