  In an ideal scenario, an organization would have complete visibility into its network, knowing exactly who is on the network, when and where they are, and what level of access they have. This visibility would improve network performance, enhance efficiency, and prevent security breaches. However, according to an EMA study, most enterprises monitor less than 70% of their networks. 38% pointed to network complexity as a significant challenge when asked why. This lack of visibility creates blind spots and vulnerabilities, providing opportunities for attackers to hide, exploit weaknesses, and carry out breaches undetected. While employing advanced network monitoring solutions seem like a clear choice, they come with several challenges. These tools require specific types of data to function effectively and often compete for traffic packets from SPAN ports or get overwhelmed by the sheer volume of irrelevant data. A Network Packet Broker (NPB) becomes crucial to address these issues. ...
