Compliance
Our Advanced Features Support Your Regulatory Compliance
Government regulations like the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS) and security guidelines from multiple organizations such as the CPSC, ISO, NERC, NIST, IEEE, and DHS make network monitoring strategies a complex undertaking. Large companies need advanced monitoring features to comply with these regulations and suggested frameworks.
Where Monitoring Fits Into the Compliance Solution
Corporate compliance means recognizing where vulnerabilities are and mitigating risks to avoid fines, penalties, lawsuits and a tarnished reputation.
The challenge brings together business, IT and security teams in an effort to manage the risk. This is where APCON network monitoring and security can help.

Monitor Traffic
A network monitoring architecture lets you see the traffic in all the right places across your network. APCON’s aggregation, filtering and advanced monitoring solutions will allow HIPAA, PCI-DSS and other compliance monitoring tools to receive the information they need (and only what they need) for analysis. Data can be encrypted or decrypted at the same time it is de-duped, filtered or load balanced, all at line rate, taking the processing load off of your existing tools and ensuring optimum performance.
Audit
The IntellaStore II+ enables compliance managers to capture network traffic of interest and store it to help meet compliance audit requirements, whether that requires real-time or post-event analysis. It can also filter and optimize data for packet visibility, feeding your forensic and security tools and allowing you to configure proactive alerts and get real-time diagnostics.
Privacy
Our visibility solutions protect PII by removing sensitive data from the packet payload, while still supplying real-time traffic data to auditing, security and performance tools. Our IntellaView platform can encrypt, decrypt and re-encrypt traffic before sending it to monitoring tools or downstream. Using a network packet broker like IntellaView for encryption, header stripping and data masking eliminates the need to spend money on additional hardware or software with those capabilities and maximizes the lifespan and performance of your existing tools.
With APCON's next-gen visibility hardware, companies can customize their datacenters to meet compliance requirements while saving on monitoring costs. Regulations like HIPAA or PCI often require SSL encryption & decryption, but encryption alone does not keep you in compliance — decryption of traffic for the purpose of monitoring network data stored for DLPs, logs or databases gives anyone with access to your tools access to sensitive data, which can violate regulatory mandates. APCON network packet brokers can utilize advanced features like packet slicing to strip this sensitive payload data from packets before they go to monitoring tools, ensuring regulatory compliance at all times.
Increase your confidence and decrease your monitoring budget.
