SECURE, COMPLIANT,  INSTALLED WITHIN HOURS

 

ELIMINATES COST OF  THREE IT RESOURCES

 

As one of the largest providers of secure payment processing in the United States, this firm serves over 200,000 merchants, financial institutions and partners. Their clients and partners rely on them for strategic business growth and success.

 

Complying with the PCI Data Security Standard (DSS) is vital for all organizations that process, store or transmit credit card information.  To accomplish their mission, they must: 

 

• Build and maintain a secure network. Ixia solutions monitor the network with our visibility portfolio to
validate firewall configurations

• Protect cardholder data by masking personally identifiable information.  Ixia solutions do this automatically with our NPBs (network packet brokers)

• Maintain a vulnerability management program.  Ixia visibility solutions can connect and route traffic to all security and compliance tools

• Regularly monitor and test networks.  This firm can even test their own network and team with realistic attacks and monitor complex networks involving multi-site distributed applications

 

With Ixia solutions, this company was able to get complete visibility into traffic flowing across their network, strengthening their security posture.

 

NO NEED FOR ONSITE POC

 

How informative can a demo be?  This firm stated, “After seeing the demo, we won’t need to do an onsite PoC. We just need to buy.”  Considering solutions from VSS, Gigamon, Apcon, and Arista, they chose to implement Ixia network packet brokers (NPBs) including the Ixia NTO 5260 ControlTower Supervisor, the Ixia NTO 5268 ControlTower Member, and the Ixia Advanced Feature Module (AFM) for advanced packet processing. They also deployed the Ixia Flex Tap, Ixia Copper Tap, and Ixia iBypass 3 switch to provide network visibility and to strengthen and secure their network.
