Rsignia, a provider of network monitoring and cyber security solutions, announced the launch of a new deep packet inspection network monitoring and forensics appliance. Dubbed as Joint Forces Sensor Lite (JFS), the new network monitoring appliance inspects all network traffic for real-time or post analysis. The small form factor appliance is fully configured, and users can get various optional configurations as required.

Rsignia is supporting National Cyber Security Initiatives. As part of this initiative, the company is involved in the development of some of the most innovative next generation cyber NETA capabilities available to the market place today. The launch of Joint Forces Sensor Lite is part of these efforts.

"With the advancement of parallel computing, increasing number of processor cores that have little or no increase in clock speed per core, and other technological advances, has made DPI both practical and affordable," said T.C. Williams, vice president of Engineering at Rsignia, in a statement.

“Rsignia believes DPI provides the necessary security measures to manage both internal and external threats, as well as the ability to monitor and manage traffic loads,” Williams added.

The Joint Forces Sensor Lite will benefit government agencies that are constrained by budget limitations but are committed to ensuring security to nation’s cyber domain. The service is also offered to commercial entities that want to secure their networks.

Meanwhile, a recent survey from Ipswitch’s (News - Alert) Network Management Division (NMD) reveals that there’s a broad confusion among IT and network performance professionals on selecting IT monitoring software licensing models due to the complexity associated with it.

More than 50 percent of the network professionals that participated in the survey said they have selected insufficient IT monitoring licenses to monitor their infrastructure and application assets.
