Our blog reveals why Progress Flowmon is an ideal choice for professionals who prioritize data integrity, accuracy and operational transparency.

Cybersecurity is one sector where extensive use of AI-enhanced solutions is common. But what does machine learning and AI entail? And how do they relate to other techniques we use in cybersecurity defense?

Progress Flowmon 12.4 addresses the challenges in understanding the need for faster and more efficient data analysis. At Progress, our primary focus is to provide accurate and thorough network data insights to our customers. As our customers' networks grow, the volume of telemetry data expands exponentially. This growth, while beneficial, brings with it the challenge of increasingly longer search times through vast amounts of data. Progress Flowmon 12.4 has implemented IP Indexing, as identifying the activity of an IP address on a network is one of the most common Flowmon use cases for network administrators and cybersecurity teams.  Additional details of what’s new and improved in 12.4 are available on the Flowmon release blog.

Our development teams continue to improve Progress Flowmon. The latest update takes the core Flowmon product to version 12.4, and our Anomaly Detection System (ADS) becomes release 12.4. For Flowmon 12.4, we want to highlight its newest capability: IP Indexing.

The cybersecurity sector has no shortage of acronyms. The terms Network Detection and Response (NDR), Managed Detection and Response (MDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and Security Orchestration Automation and Response (SOAR) are used frequently and often without explanation, as it’s assumed everyone knows what they mean.

IT professionals seek out solutions that provide in-depth visibility into their networks and streamline processes so they can more efficiently catch anomalies. A recent update to Progress Flowmon Anomaly Detection System (ADS) will address these common customer concerns. Read on for a closer look at how Flowmon ADS 12.3 improves your organization’s threat analyses and cybersecurity strategies.
