【技盟新闻】Gigamon 针对 100Gb 网络推出业界首个可扩展 SSL 解密方案

借助架构方法降低成本、实时探测威胁,可实现流量一次解密发送至多个安全工具进行检测。

2018年2月27日,中国北京 – 专门为网络安全和监测应用提供流量可视化解决方案的领导厂商Gigamon近日宣布推出业界首个针对100Gb和40Gb网络支持SSL/TLS解密的可视化解决方案。作为GigaSECURE 安全交付平台的组成部分,这一方案助力企业实现对数据的解密和再加密,并借助多个先进安全工具对其进行检测。此外,这一方案有助于发现隐藏于SSL/TLS会话中的威胁、降低安全工具负载、提高现有安全工具的使用价值和投资回报率。  

最近几年,流经企业网络的数据流量大幅增加,很多中国企业都已升级到40Gb和100Gb网络。同时,在这些高速网络上传输的加密数据在数量上陡然提升,主要原因是包括Microsoft Office365和Dropbox在内的大量SaaS服务投入使用。据市场调研公司Gartner预测,到2019年,超过80%的企业网络流量将采用加密方式。

Gigamon产品副总裁Ananda Rajagopal 表示,“传统网络安全架构已经无法支撑高速流量的爆炸性增长,更重要的是,无法识别并阻截那些使用了加密技术的恶意软件和数据泄露事件。在100Gb网络环境中,许多安全和监测工具出现过载现象,人们对安全监测新方法的需求迫在眉睫。Gigamon最新方案帮助企业将边缘网络的安全工具重新部署于核心网络中,避免了求大求全,从而更加专注于发现横向攻击并快速识别威胁。”

恶意软件利用SSL/TLS加密来隐藏自己、逃避监测。根据一份2017年受信软件报告估算,有36%的恶意软件样本采用了某些加密方式。在40Gb和100Gb网络中,解密、揭露并且识别加密流量里的隐藏威胁,难度越来越大,因为大多数安全和监测工具并不支持如此高的网速。此外,“工具连工具”方式太过复杂、成本较高、效率较差。来自NSS Labs的研究显示,当安全工具在解密流量并发挥特定安全功能时,性能下降高达80%。

Check Point Software 业务和公司发展总监Jason Min表示,“借助Check Point能够管理全球下一代威胁防御网管的Infinity架构,Gigamon提供全球领先的性能和弹性安全架构,可实现对大型客户部署的串接SSL保护。我们与Gigamon的合作,可提供独一无二的性能表现和高级威胁防御,助力企业用户应对隐藏网络威胁。”

Arrow Electronics 企业计算解决方案业务单元安全业务组副总裁Matt Rochford表示,“Gigamon将‘一次解密多次检测’架构方法引入串接SSL解密,这一做法相当有效,可帮助我们的客户以及方案提供商社区充分利用安全方案带来的好处,满足业务需要,对此我们深感振奋。”

GigaSECURE安全交付平台的扩展,是对2015年开始执行的Gigamon安全战略的延续。2016年,该战略扩展至元数据和公有云可视化。2017年,Gigamon公布串接SSL/TLS解密方案并推出Defender Lifecycle Model。该模块部署后,可帮助安全从业人员使用持续性网络可视化功能实现对工具间任务的管控和自动更新,实现防御、检测、预测以及抑制阶段的持续运行。此外,2017年Gigamon推出了公有云服务以及Splunk和Phantom全新应用来实现对Defender Lifecycle Model的支持。Gigamon将继续为公有云和本地基础设施提供或扩展安全服务。
