NX-PS-DC-1XL 50 Gbit/s / 25 Gbit/s

PacketShark offers an all-in-one solution to improve SSL infrastructure, providing security devices with visibility into TLS/SSL encrypted traffic and optimizing existing security investments.

It supports policy-based traffic management and easily integrates with current architectures, while centralizing SSL decryption and encryption using the latest technologies across the security framework.

The PacketShark is a modular solution that keeps up with the process of ever-growing networks with its possibility to utilize NMC modules to increase the port density if required. To add more protection to the solution these NMC modules are also available with integrated Bypass functionality, handing over full control of the network links to the user. In combination with an external PacketHawk Inline Bypass and PacketLion Network Packet Brokers one can scale their security design to an unlimited degree.

Description

NEOXPacketShark SSL Visibility & Traffic Management PlatformThe NEOXPacketShark series is a high-performance, modular SSL/TLS visibility and traffic management platform designed to enhance security infrastructure by providing deep visibility into encrypted network traffic. It enables organizations to optimize existing security investments by delivering centralized SSL decryption and encryption, ensuring security tools can inspect traffic without blind spots across modern encrypted environments.
PacketShark supports policy-based traffic management, allowing precise control over how encrypted and decrypted traffic flows across the security stack. It integrates seamlessly into existing enterprise and service provider architectures, enabling scalable deployment without disrupting operational workflows. Providing full TLS/SSL traffic visibility significantly improves threat detection, analysis, and enforcement across security ecosystems.
Built for scalability, the PacketShark platform features a modular architecture with NMC expansion modules, allowing organizations to increase port density and adapt to growing network demands. These modules can also include integrated bypass functionality, providing full control over traffic flow and ensuring high availability even during maintenance or device failures.For enhanced scalability and distributed security architectures, PacketShark integrates seamlessly with NEOXPacketHawk Inline-Bypass Switches and NEOXPacketLion Network Packet Brokers, enabling organizations to design highly flexible, multi-layered security infrastructures with near-unlimited expansion potential.
