Softprom Solutions MapNiagara Networks through Softprom
Distributor
Niagara Networks builds the plumbing that gets traffic to security tools, and sells the pieces separately rather than as one chassis: passive and active taps, brokers that aggregate and load-balance, a bypass switch that keeps traffic moving when an inline appliance dies, an acceleration module for deduplication, slicing and decryption, and a controller that provisions all of it centrally. The virtual side taps traffic inside the three large clouds. One node type hosts third-party applications directly, which is unusual in this category.

| Solution | Category |
|---|---|
| Cloud Intelligence Platform / Cloud Visibility (virtual packet broker, vTAP, Cloud Packet Broker)CIP is a virtual packet broker that taps AWS VPC, Azure and GCP traffic via vTAP or mirroring, filters it and emits NetFlow/IPFIX; TLS decryption is planned. | Network Visibility / Packet BrokerIT Infrastructure |
| Inline Bypass SwitchFail-safe inline switch that uses heartbeats to keep traffic flowing when inline security appliances fail or go offline. | Network Visibility / Packet BrokerIT Infrastructure |
| Network Packet BrokerAggregates traffic from TAPs, SPAN ports, virtual TAPs and inline paths, then filters, deduplicates and load-balances it to monitoring tools. | Network Visibility / Packet BrokerIT Infrastructure |
| Network TAPPassive fiber TAPs split light to copy live traffic to monitoring tools; active TAPs regenerate the signal for copper links. | Network Visibility / Packet BrokerIT Infrastructure |
| Niagara Visibility Controller (NVC)SDN-based controller (NVC) that centrally provisions and monitors distributed TAPs, packet brokers, bypass switches and cloud visibility nodes. | Network Visibility / Packet BrokerIT Infrastructure |
| Packetron / ePacketron (Traffic Intelligence)Packet-acceleration module adding deduplication, slicing, TLS decryption and NetFlow/IPFIX to packet brokers, trimming traffic before SOC and NOC tools. | Network Visibility / Packet BrokerIT Infrastructure |
| The Open Visibility Platform™ (OVP)OVP is an open visibility architecture pairing multi-purpose packet-broker nodes with a hosting layer for third-party network and security applications. | Network Visibility / Packet BrokerIT Infrastructure |
