Successful attacks on networks have become commonplace. However, many security incidents could have been avoided if there had been sufficient visibility of all parts of the network and if the intruder had been detected in time.
A relatively cost-effective solution to create transparency in the network infrastructure can be realised easily and quickly with network TAPs.
Once installed, with the help of a TAP, all data traffic can be made available transparently, quickly, easily and without affecting the active network line, for various monitoring applications. A network TAP operates on OSI Layer 1 and has no MAC address. Therefore, it is invisible in the network and cannot be detected by any attacker. This is indispensable, especially in network forensics and security, as ...
