Combining Complete Network Visibility with Pro-active Security Validation

Specializing in network devices, protocols and security, Keysight’s Public Sector practice has been providing its customers with “ground truth” for over 20 years.  Whether you're an application developer, hardware architect, network administrator, security operator, mission planner or agency leader, Keysight products are fundamental to knowing everything about your network, including the devices, applications and users that live on it.

First, our visibility fabric is a key component to Zero Trust architectures with the ability to obtain packet data from any Ethernet/IP network, including data centers, public and private clouds, edge deployments, OT environments.  This is accomplished through the industry’s widest array of physical, hypervisor and cloud based Taps, which passively create a copy of every packet.  These copied packets represent the entirety of what’s happening on the network, but many analysis tools are only interested in their slice of the network pie.  Keysight Network Packet Brokers filter out the unwanted portions of raw packet feeds before they reach the analysis tools, thereby optimizing their functionality and performance.

With packet level visibility in every nook and cranny, we are now positioned to validate operational excellence.  Keysight’s assortment of test tools can validate anything from simple KPIs (throughput, latency, jitter, loss, quality of service) to the most complex cyber defense postures.  This is important because testing ultimately reduces the risk of scenarios like cyber attacks, network oversubscription, incomplete missions and overspending.

Keysight is in the business of providing answers to difficult and seemingly impossible technical questions.

Here are some examples to get you thinking as your organization faces ongoing modernization requirements.

Keep in mind that Keysight has the experience, technology and personnel to definitely answer all of them.

  • How accurate is your nextgen firewall’s detection engine, especially while under duress by peak loads or even DDoS attacks?
  • Is your SIEM is receiving alerts correctly from all of its plugins, especially through continuous software upgrades?
  • Is your Zero Trust policy is authenticating and segmenting traffic properly?
  • How many millisecond of latency will cause your satellite-based application to stop functioning?
  • How do you monitor Critical Infrastructure assets that often live in harsh conditions?
  • Is a multi-cloud solution for collecting packet data possible?
  • How would an adversary attack your assumedly safe post-quantum-cryptographic communications?

Keysight is proud to be the only company that can offer a 1-2 punch of industry-leading test and visibility products to comprehensively support evolving Public Sector requirements.
