Securing Security Systems through Network Monitoring

August 6, 2019 / GuidesFor Team

Using network monitoring tools can be very helpful in detecting changes in network behavior that indicate if security is compromised. Right now, it can be said that the digitization of components are patchworks of technologies, protocols, and devices from different vendors.

Network monitoring, according to Techopedia, is the systematic effort to detect slow or failing network components, such as when there are crashed or frozen servers, failed switches, failing routers, and other problematic devices. Should there be network failure or outage, the network monitoring system will alert the network administrator through software applications and tools. – Crischellyn Abayon

Choosing a monitoring system for your IT infrastructure? What should your key considerations be?

This document describes different ways in which you can compare and contrast different monitoring solutions and how you can decide for yourself what are the key factors that you need to consider in deciding on a monitoring solution for you infrastructure.

Best Practices for Network Monitoring

Proper network monitoring consists of more than just attaching a security and monitoring tool to a tap or SPAN port. Learn how a network packet broker can be effectively used. This document provides the basic information you need, in a straight forward and condense format, to help you optimize your network visibility and monitoring architecture.

Optimize Your Network Monitoring Strategy

This document will show you how APCON switches differ from a standard network switch in that they feature packet aggregation, multicast, data rate conversion, and data filtering on every switch, with additional advanced services such as packet slicing, packet deduplication, and time stamping available if needed.

How High Performing IT Teams Monitor Their Networks

IT teams tend to use large, diverse sets of management tools to monitor and troubleshoot their networks. EMA research has found that maintaining such an overcrowded management toolkit can make network operations dangerously ineffective. To address today's challenges, IT teams must consolidate network management tools and integrate them across IT technology domains. Learn how high performing IT Teams monitor their networks in this document.
