Improving cybersecurity

Keysight Technologies announces the expansion of its Keysight Vision network packet brokers (NPBs) with AI Insight Brokers. These enhanced NPBs are designed to enhance the performance of AI-driven cybersecurity operations such as threat detection, incident response, and forensics. The AI ​​Insight Broker is specifically designed to support and leverage the capabilities of AI software, including Keysight's newly developed AI Stack.

As cyber threats continue to evolve, organizations must seek new ways to accelerate threat detection. Enterprise IT and Security Operations (SecOps) teams can leverage AI and machine learning (ML) to address this problem. This enables them to better monitor and remediate performance issues, prevent cyber threats, and maintain operational scale and compliance.

Keysight's enhanced NPBs are designed to support these requirements by offering the ability to run AI security and performance monitoring software along with enhanced memory and storage. Keysight's AI Stack, which provides anomaly detection, dynamic application signature identification, and predictive quality and threat analysis, can also be integrated. By applying AI earlier in the performance and security monitoring process, the new solution provides customers with enhanced protection and the ability to remediate performance issues earlier to prevent cyber threats and improve detection.

Key benefits of enhanced network packet switching include:

Accelerated Analytics: By preparing network and cloud data in real time, customers can gain insights using hyper-scale data lakes while optimizing data volumes in tool processing.
Cost savings: Reduce cloud service costs through AI-driven data analysis and volume reduction, resulting in lower compute requirements.
Easy scalability: Configure the AI ​​Insight Broker with on-demand activation of the Keysight AI Stack and integrate any combination of alliance partner apps for the desired visibility and monitoring capabilities.

Recep Ozdag, Vice President and General Manager, Network Visibility Solutions at Keysight: "Industry-leading security providers are continually embracing AI to accelerate threat detection and response. Our AI Insight Brokers go beyond traditional packet switching and process data at the edge of the network, offloading the burden on security tools and significantly accelerating analysis. With the ability to now run AI software, we can offer our customers an enhanced product that continues to meet evolving security requirements."
