Lancope's StealthWatch Showcases Power of NetFlow by Monitoring of Network Traffic at Cisco Live Conference in Las Vegas

StealthWatch to analyze NetFlow for the industry's premier education and training event for IT, networking and communications professionals

ATLANTA and LAS VEGAS, June 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Cisco Live conference -- Lancope, Inc., a leader in flow-based security, network and application performance monitoring, today announced that it will continuously monitor network traffic by leveraging NetFlow from the conference network infrastructure for Cisco Live, taking place July 10-14, 2011, in Las Vegas. By providing comprehensive monitoring capabilities across a wide range of Cisco routers and switches (including the Catalyst 3000, 4000 and 6000 Series Switches) and the ASA firewall, StealthWatch provides unprecedented visibility into network traffic to vastly improve both performance and security.

Steve McOwen, Cisco Systems' director of information security, previously stated, "NetFlow is an extremely useful and underused tool for maintaining and troubleshooting enterprise networks. Lancope captures the full power of NetFlow without requiring extensive time or resources from IT teams. In-depth flow data, application analysis and an easy-to-understand, graphical user interface make StealthWatch a versatile tool for monitoring and responding to a wide variety of incidents."

StealthWatch delivers unified security, network and application performance monitoring across physical and virtual environments. By providing a comprehensive view of what is going on in the network at any given time, the system addresses increasing demands being placed on corporate infrastructure due to trends such as IT consumerization, user mobility, cloud computing, live telepresence and streaming video. In-depth network intelligence will become even more crucial moving forward as these innovations continue to strain IT resources and diminish the traditional network perimeter.

Through a single platform, StealthWatch eliminates network blind spots, cuts network and security management costs and dramatically reduces the time from problem onset to resolution. StealthWatch fills in the gaps between other network and security technologies to uncover not only the sophisticated, zero-day attacks that often bypass perimeter defenses, but also internal threats.

Cisco Live is the industry's premier education and training event for IT, networking and communications professionals, as well as Cisco's largest educational and training event of the year. In 2010, the event brought together 12,700 technology professionals and innovators.

"Cisco is relentlessly dedicated to optimizing enterprise infrastructure and the corporate networking experience," said Mike Potts, president and CEO of Lancope. "We are honored to support these efforts by empowering organizations to seamlessly collect and analyze NetFlow for more secure, high-performance networks. NetFlow provides a very powerful and cost-effective means of seeing exactly what is going on within a network at any given time."

In addition to monitoring network traffic for the show, Lancope will exhibit the StealthWatch System at Cisco Live Booth #1751. Further details on the conference can be found at http://www.ciscolive.com. For more information on Lancope's StealthWatch, please visit http://www.lancope.com/products.
