Stealthwatch Secures the Data Center
82% of surveyed customers are able to secure their data center with Stealthwatch.
The design and implementation of the solution fits perfectly within my firm. The ability to use both deep packet inspection and netflow in order to monitor performance helps us respond quickly to events on the network. The platform is very stable and the ability to keep data for a year is absolutely critical when we are trying to research an event.

We compared Stealthwatch to other vendors in our selection process. We decided that Stealthwatch provided more value per dollar than the other vendors. Stealthwatch’s user interface makes it easy to investigate problems on the network.

Stealthwatch works well with Cisco netflow in order to give us a holistic picture of the network. It is practical to use for a very small security team to get a handle on what is happening on a large network because it allows us to group and build out profiles which actively reduces the amount of raw analysis.

Stealthwatch has helped our organization tremendously with regards to the visibility of user traffic. It also helps us determine whether an infected host is contacting a C&C host or various external hosts. Additionally, it has provided our organization with indicator alarms, which were non-existent prior to implementing Stealthwatch.

We were able to increase our visibility in all of our remote offices by adding a single flow sensor to each location. We can now monitor network performance and security events using one platform. We typically use Stealthwatch to remediate events generated both from within Stealthwatch and from our IDS. The ability to search a name or IP address enables us to identify and locate the source of an issue very quickly.

Stealthwatch has allowed us to profit from existing flows (which were used for network administration in a security context) while also reducing staff requirements. A few problems we’ve had have been staff numbers, adding new capabilities, and reducing incident response times without loading staff.

With over 150,000 user (BYOD) devices connected to the network during the Toronto2015 PANAM Games we relied heavily on Stealthwatch to help us understand what was happening on the network and where the threats were coming from. It helped us in many instances make the decision whether to simply notify a user or disconnect them from the network. As with any multi-sport game or large event that is broadcast live, time and high availability are critical.

Stealthwatch has allowed us to view the security issues caused by users on our network. Most of these issues have been unintentional so it has been helpful in teaching the users which things should and should not be done on the network.
