The success of IT is measured by time and therefore this spring update comes with performance in mind, moving operations ever closer to real-time. Through our continuous research, we’ve identified the need for a variety of improvements that would help IT experts to achieve their performance metrics faster and easier.

Operational Technology and Information Technology are merging. And spoken frankly, they do not understand each other. OT systems have lived for years totally isolated and now they should be connected to enterprise networks or the internet. The lack of security measures in this environment, where availability and integrity will return us back in time, means we will have to deal with the very same issues that experienced IT professionals solved 20 years ago.

Full internet encryption is on the horizon and with it the risk that hackers will gain access to your computer network.

IT experts usually distinguish between two types of systems for network monitoring: flow-based and packet-based. But facing today's challenges brought by bandwidth explosion, new platforms and hyper-connectivity they must change their relationship from simple coexistence to fruitful cooperation. And this is exactly what we have delivered to IT ops by introducing Flowmon 10 and Rolling Memory Buffer feature. Let’s see what benefits it brings for network forensics.

Using basic network performance metrics, namely Round Trip Time (RTT) and Server Response Time (SRT), is an easy-to-go way how to deal with performance issues in your network. Let’s take a closer look at how every network administrator can use RTT and SRT metrics in Flowmon.
