BofA warns Fed risks policy mistake with early rate cuts
WESTFORD, Mass. - NETSCOUT SYSTEMS, INC. (NASDAQ:NTCT), a $1.58 billion market cap company with impressive gross profit margins of 78%, announced on Tuesday the launch of Adaptive Threat Analytics, a new enhancement to its Omnis Cyber Intelligence Network Detection and Response solution aimed at improving incident response and reducing cybersecurity risks. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a strong financial position with more cash than debt on its balance sheet.
The enhancement enables security teams to investigate and respond to cyber threats more rapidly through continuous network packet capture, local storage of metadata independent of detections, built-in packet decodes, and flexible ad hoc querying capabilities.
According to data cited in the company’s press release, organizations take an average of 73 days to contain a cybersecurity incident, highlighting the need for faster response times.
The solution provides visibility into north-south and east-west network traffic, which the company states is essential for effective threat detection and incident response in increasingly complex network environments.
"Security teams often lack the specific knowledge to understand exactly what happened to be able to choose the best response," said Jerry Mancini, senior director, Office of the CTO at NETSCOUT, in the press release.
John Grady, principal analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group, noted that "continuous, unified, packet-based visibility into north-south and east-west traffic has become essential for effective and efficient threat detection and incident response."
The company’s AI-driven correlation feature aims to connect separate events into comprehensive incidents, providing security teams with a view of the entire attack chain. The solution is designed to integrate with existing cybersecurity ecosystems such as SIEM, SOAR, or XDR platforms.
NETSCOUT provides observability, AIOps, cybersecurity, and DDoS attack protection solutions to enterprises, service providers, and public sector organizations. Trading at $22.16, InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently undervalued, with 8 additional ProTips available to subscribers.
