Innovating the way you troubleshoot networks
Real-time analysis, anywhere you want
IOTA is a complete network analysis and troubleshooting solution that is designed for use in small, mid-size enterprises, remote sites and small data centers. With an integrated TAP and internal storage capabilities, IOTA can be deployed at any key capture points in the network for monitoring real-time and historical network traffic without affecting the network performance or security. IOTA 1G+ is fitted with GPS and PPS ports to provide advanced timestamping and synchronization features.
IOTA provides a fast and accurate overview of the network traffic without the need for on-site technical staff, making it easy to quickly identify and resolve network application issues. This allows you to greatly optimize your MTTR and keep your network performance up.

IOTA HELPS YOU:
KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR NETWORK
Monitor hosts, top talkers, bandwidth, latency, TCP, UDP, IPv4, IPv6, VLAN, DNS and many more at a glance, using a premade set of comprehensive dashboards.
MONITOR NETWORK PERFORMANCE
Keep a close eye on the most essential performance metrics, retransmissions, packet loss, latency, throughput, availability, connectivity and more.
TRACK DOWN SECURITY FLAWS AND PROTOCOL/APPLICATION USAGE
Full visibility over 200+ applications and protocols (DNS, HTTP, SSH, Office 365, Skype, Whatsapp, Netflix, etc.)
MONITOR REMOTE SITES & BRANCH OFFICES
Fully managed over HTTPS and with built-in VPN, it offers easy deployment and usage in any network topology.
HOW IT WORKS:
QUICK SEARCH DATABASE
Explore long-term dataset accumulated over days, weeks or months.
CUSTOMIZABLE DASHBOARDS
Dashboards can be created, modified and share across multi-users in a web-based environment.
HIGHLY EFFICIENT METADATA COLLECTION
Up to 100 KPIs are extracted from packets, TCP/UDP flow and flow behavior. Flow metadata can reduce the volume of data by 90% compared to the original PCAP trace.
DRILL DOWN TO HIGH FIDELITY PCAP TRACE
The capture engine embeds line-rate hardware features like packet slicing, filtering and timestamping.
TECHNICAL DETAILS:
1TB/2TB ENCRYPTED REMOVABLE STORAGE
PCAP collection, metadata database and system are stored on a removable encrypted SSD (AES 256-bit).
GPS/PPS TIMING PORTS
GPS/PPS input for advanced timestamping and accurate latency measurement.
DATA DIODE ISOLATION
The monitored network is isolated from the management interface to avoid any risk of injection of MITM attack through the device.
FLEXIBLE POWERING OPTIONS
IOTA can be powered from a 30 W PoE+ switch (over the management port) and 12 VDC or 24 VDC.
CONFIGURABLE IN DUAL OUT-OF-BAND / IN-LINE MODE
All IOTA models can be configured in either out-of-band or in-line mode. The IOTA 1G+ embeds a high-performance failure safe TAP with PoE passthrough.
