Packet analysis utilized by Darktrace scales poorly and has enormous storage requirements. But Flowmon relies on flow-based NDR supplemented by on-demand or on-event packet capture, providing more performance per appliance and weeks of storage history.
Kemp Flowmon features over 40 detection methods and more than 200 algorithms to pick up subtle changes in network traffic and expose the malicious activity of unknown and insider threats operating in the network including encrypted traffic. In addition to signatureless detection, it leverages the signature-based Suricata IDS and MISP threat intelligence feeds.
Security events are visualized on zero-clutter dashboards and ranked by severity. Kemp Flowmon also categorizes them according to MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques to give you an at-a-glance understanding of the compromise stage, scope and future development.
You can access detailed information about every event from anywhere on the dashboard and extract insights such as the timeframe of the event, attack target or origin, related events of the incident, or interpretive descriptions of the anomaly.
Besides low scalability, proprietary packet-based technology faces additional challenges with traffic encryption and hybrid deployments. Kemp Flowmon is flow-based (NetFlow/IPFIX) and thus perfectly suited to overcome these issues with zero impediment and deliver future-proof, cross-environment security that scales easily while remaining cost-efficient.
