New Partners – Plixer and Cisco

Original Entry by : Endace

plixer-logoLast month we announced a partnership with Plixer to provide integration between EndaceProbe™️ Network Recorders and Plixer’s Scrutinizer™️ NetFlow Analytics suite. This leverages Endace Fusion’s API to enable SOC and NOC teams to pivot directly from Scrutinizer alerts to packet-level detail in traffic recorded on EndaceProbes across the network, delivering the detailed data that enables analysts to quickly investigate and establish the root cause of an alert.

cisco-logoWe have also joined the Cisco Solution Partner program. This partnership provides customers using Cisco’s Firepower™ Management Console with single-click access to EndaceVision for powerful visualization of network traffic and rapid drill down to recorded network packets using Endace Fusion’s Pivot to Vision and Pivot to Packets API functions.

Are you a Cisco Firepower or Plixer Scrutinizer user?

Contact sales@endace.com to organize a demo so you can see how this integration can dramatically speed up your investigations.

The new DAG 5.5.0 software release is available with some exciting and innovative new features:

One of our customers said that once. And he was right.

So with DAG 5.5.0 we’re introducing a revolutionary new capability. Now you can add “Provenance” smart-data fields to your capture files and streams to provide full, contextual information about where the packets were captured and what the environment was like at the time.

Gold standard packet capture at a price the market deserves

dag-10x-sEndace DAG cards have long been recognized as the industry gold standard for reliable and highly accurate packet capture and processing.

But we wanted to ensure DAG quality is available to everyone, and we think the time is right for a shakeup in the capture card market.

So we’ve set a new, aggressive low price for the DAG10X2-S to ensure it is the most affordable card in its class, bar none. Now there’s no reason to compromise on quality.

If you are interested in purchasing the DAG10X2-S contact our sales team at sales@endace.com, or talk to your reseller, to find out about the new pricing.

When accurate timing is everything

PTP Timing WhitepaperFor many organizations, highly accurate timing is critical to providing accurate audit trails, allowing accurate reconstruction of events for security
forensics or troubleshooting microburst performance issues.

Endace CTO, Dr. Stephen Donnelly, has put together a whitepaper based on the presentation which he and Endace CEO, Stuart Wilson, presented at STAC conferences in London, Chicago and New York recently, which looks at the accuracy of PTP (IEEE 1588) timing in a live High Frequency Trading (HFT) WAN environment.

MiFID II, Timing and STAC

Original Entry by : Endace

For high frequency traders (HFTs), complying with new obligations that will come into force under MiFID II, and proving compliance, will pose some significant technical challenges.

Stephen Donnelly, Endace’s CTO, gave a presentation comparing GPS and PTP timing accuracy at the STAC Summit in London (May 10) and he will also be presenting at STAC Chicago (May 17). Endace’s CEO, Stu Wilson, will present at the STAC Summit in New York (June 13).

Stephen also attended STAC’s Essentials of MiFID 2 Time Compliance workshop in London on Monday. This workshop was an excellent opportunity for HFTs to get up-to-speed with what the new MiFID II requirements mean for their organizations and how to prepare for them. More on what came out of this in our next newsletter.

We’re looking forward to the opportunity to catch up with our HFT customers at all three STAC events. If you haven’t yet registered for STAC Chicago or New York but are interested in attending, let us know.
