As enterprises migrate network resources to the cloud, they often find a gap in visibility for cloud assets. Cloud adoption means that the IT operations organization no longer has the same access to the infrastructure and networks that underpin its services; which can lead to a gap in monitoring, according to Gartner. At the same time, the rapid adoption of cloud services, along with an increasing number of cloud infrastructure and platform services, has created an explosion in complexity and unmanaged risk. Enterprise SOC teams need packet-level access to their cloud assets to ensure they are protected in a hybrid network environment.
"As part of our Integrated Cyber Defense Platform strategy, Symantec is working closely with Ixia, a valued partner, to develop a visibility architecture that will add tremendous value for our customers," said Peter Doggart, vice president of business development, Symantec. "The integration between Ixia and Security Analytics provides SOC admins with visibility into cloud workload traffic to determine the source and scope of a sophisticated threat or attack when it extends to their cloud environment."
"Today's enterprises have assets in a mix of environments including on premises and in the public cloud. This hybrid environment can make security and threat remediation more complex," said Bryan Cardoza, product manager, Symantec. "This integration will provide joint customers with full packet-level access to cloud workload traffic for greater visibility in hybrid environments across the network and cloud. Security Analytics can then record and enrich all traffic to enable comprehensive incident response and forensics." |
