GigaSMART HC Series SSL Decryption

GigaSMART technology extends the intelligence and value of the Gigamon Security Delivery Platform by enhancing your monitoring infrastructure and improving tool performance. A range of applications are available to optimize the traffic sent from your network to the tools you rely upon to monitor, manage, and secure that network. GigaSMART's advanced processing engine can be accessed anywhere within the Visibility Fabric without port- or card-based restrictions. GigaSMART engines can be combined to process higher traffic loads and/or dedicated and optimized for specific applications. Operations can be combined or service chained so traffic benefits from multiple functions that can be achieved at once, such as generating NetFlow or SSL after duplicates have been removed, or by stripping VLAN headers before load balancing the traffic and sending it out to tools.

Network monitoring tools can perform more efficiently by eliminating unwanted content with the de-duplication and packet slicing features. SSL decryption provides visibility into encrypted sessions, sending decrypted packets to out-of-band monitoring tools. Masking allows network security teams to hide confidential information like passwords, financial accounts, or medical data, allowing companies to meet SOX, HIPAA and PCI compliance regulations.
