ExtraHop announced three new solution modules that empower IT organizations to tackle critical challenges around cloud applications, WAN optimization, and security.
With these new modules, which are free to current customers, ExtraHop further enables IT teams to leverage wire data for deep, targeted visibility into their IT environments. This visibility provides IT organizations with a way to more proactively monitor, optimize, and secure increasingly complex IT architectures; derisk the environment; and drive better business and IT decisions.
“Today’s IT organizations face significant hurdles when it comes to performance, availability, and particularly security, an issue that is top of mind for many organizations in the wake of several recent high-profile breaches,” said Jesse Rothstein, CEO, ExtraHop. “Our customers have already gained crucial insights through analyzing wire data in their complex IT environments. Now they can go one step further with our new modules, which leverage the extensibility of the ExtraHop platform and are available for free. ExtraHop makes it easy and cost-efficient for IT teams to maximize the power of our wire data analytics platform.”
The latest solution modules from ExtraHop are purpose-built to help IT teams ensure the security of their environment, while giving them the tools they need to optimize the end-user experience.
With the ExtraHop Cloud App Monitoring module, IT organizations have the power to proactively tackle shadow IT. The Cloud App Monitoring module automatically discovers and shows end-user procured cloud apps running in the IT environment — including Salesforce, Google Docs, YouTube, Facebook, Dropbox, and more.
With this new solution module from ExtraHop, IT teams can determine who is using what application, when, how extensively, and how frequently.
The module includes the most commonly used cloud applications out of the box and is easily customizable and extensible to the specific demands of an individual organization.
ExtraHop’s Cloud App module is designed to leverage the collective intelligence of ExtraHop’s burgeoning user community where they can openly contribute to Cloud App definitions, continuously improving and evolving visibility into shadow IT. With the Cloud App module, IT teams gain the visibility they need to protect data and reduce risk for IT and the business at large.
The ExtraHop WAN Optimization Analytics module arms IT teams with the insight they need to comprehensively evaluate WAN optimization solutions and make their WAN optimization more efficient.
The ExtraHop WAN Optimization Analytics module enables IT teams to identify, down to the user level, what and how frequently applications and files are being accessed over the WAN and how they are performing. The module then correlates that information with network bandwidth consumption to give these organizations an accurate picture of how they should deploy WAN optimization or how they could be using their existing WAN more effectively.
ExtraHop has also upgraded its popular Security and Compliance module to deliver pervasive, contextual monitoring specifically aimed at the detection of data breaches.
