Big things in life have quite beginnings sometimes. More than ten years ago, a small group of Czech scientists worked for the pan-European association GÉANT. They had no idea that this project would change their lives forever and give a rise to the Flowmon solution which would one day monitor and secure pan-European network which is used by 50 million users.
Why would you need Network Behavior Analysis once you have deployed flow collector and traffic reporting? Well, there are scenarios where automatic anomaly detection goes far beyond capabilities of flow collectors. Are you using Flowmon Monitoring Center and still don’t have Flowmon ADS? Find out in 7 minutes how you can extend your Flowmon deployment with Network Behavior Analysis module.
