Solera Networks Brings Complete Visibility to Network Events, Traffic, and Behavior

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Solera Networks(TM) announces the formal launch of its company, Solera Networks Incorporated. Solera Networks resolves system-level restraints to capture and record all network information, providing complete and reliable knowledge of an enterprise network.

Network infrastructure and network-based applications continue to be at the heart of mission critical computing. There is heightened urgency to gain full visibility to network traffic, behavior, vulnerabilities, and threatening intrusions. However, the growing number of technologies designed to analyze the flood of increased traffic and optimize its flow throughout the network all rely on limited data. Mission-sensitive network policies are based on incomplete and confusing information, compromising the integrity of network management and security policies.

Solera has developed a suite of network appliances, system software, and network analytical applications, which capture network traffic at speeds much greater-than gigabit per second, archive and index every packet, and still keep pace with real-time traffic flow. Their products are market tested and are shipping to customers for production use today.

TimeShift Forensics and Analytics(TM)

Most analysis is done using a finite sampling of network traffic. Network administrators "hope" they are looking at traffic at precisely the right time. If not, they miss out on the context of an event.

Solera Networks provides a complete repository of all network traffic, including meta data, log events AND packet payload. So now analysts and administrators can shift the timeframe of their analysis. Reconstructing patterns and behaviors deliver absolute clarity, not statistically unreliable inferences. And the analysis can be done at any time, when the customer decides, not when the network dictates.

Solera Networks integrate seamlessly with a company's existing network management and forensics applications and only enhances them by given them full contextual review of all traffic events.

Solera DS Series(TM)

The Solera DS Series is a suite of Linux-based, high performance network packet recorder appliances designed to capture and archive network traffic onto a scalable, infinite, disk based caching system at multiple gigabit line speeds.

Customer & Partner Validation

Solera Networks is pleased to welcome several Value-Added Resellers to its fold. Partners and the partner program will soon be announced in upcoming notices.

Additionally, Solera Networks has enjoyed tremendous market validation with several customers using its products in full production mode.

Targeted for Global 2000 data centers, Solera Networks gives complete and reliable knowledge of an enterprise network and provides forensically sound audit capabilities.

Lane Livingston, President of Fibernet says, "We use the Solera DS Series to create an access audit of all flows in and out of our customer's data. As a premier hosting service, we must ensure the integrity of our network. We are now able to provide complete assurance to our customers of the integrity of our hosting services. And we do it with complete historic perspective."

Solera Networks is a privately-held company founded on the premise that today's network tools and applications are good and useful, but insufficient. The reason that they are insufficient is due to the lack of complete information available from today's networks. Why is the data lacking?

Providing complete & reliable knowledge of your network is a systems-level challenge. Solera Networks has developed ground-breaking systems software to do just that. Now, real-time capture of ALL network packets is possible. Applications and other network systems gain added worth by seeing ALL streams and flows. False-positive alarms become a thing of the past.

Complete visibility with Solera Networks will quicken your diagnostics, provide accurate audits of all traffic flows, archive network knowledge for event correlation, and enable reconstruction of historic events with full data integrity.
