LEIPZIG, Germany and COPENHAGEN, Denmark, June 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ipoque and Napatech (OSE: NAPA) today provide insight into their involvement in the recent market introduction of the Lancope StealthWatch FlowSensor 4000. In a case study entitled "Lancope Accelerates Security Performance and Time-to-Market with Dell, ipoque and Napatech," details are provided on how Dell OEM, ipoque and Napatech combined forces to address Lancope's need for increased performance, deeper insight and faster time-to-market.

Highlights:

The network security challenge addressed by Lancope is to detect and prevent attacks in real time using a holistic approach to network security based on analysis of data flows.
The challenge faced by Lancope was to increase the performance of the StealthWatch FlowSensor 4000, ensure layer 7 application visibility and make this possible on a standard server with full outsourced integration.
Accelerated performance and deeper application insight to identify threats was achieved using a combination of Napatech accelerators and ipoque Protocol and Application Classification Engine (PACE) deep packet inspection software.
Faster time-to-market was achieved by leveraging the long-standing relationship that Lancope has enjoyed with Dell OEM as an outsourced integration partner and the pre-integration work performed by Dell OEM with Napatech and ipoque.

SUPPORTING QUOTES:
Eias Daka, Head of Strategic Alliances, ipoque, said:
"Dealing with the increasing volume of network traffic and potential security threats is a challenge facing every enterprise and network operator. The challenge is even greater thanks to the trend of encryption, which makes it more difficult to identify Layer 7 applications in real time. ipoque's PACE advanced DPI technology uses multiple sophisticated techniques to ensure a high application detection rate together with a high throughput, thanks to our close relationship with Napatech and Dell."
