Our Solutions
Profitap helps businesses maintain optimal network performance and supports their cybersecurity posture with packet-based network intelligence.
Advanced traffic capture and analysis capabilities help establish baseline traffic patterns and detect anomalies or deviations from those patterns. Through high-fidelity data capture, visualized in dedicated analysis dashboards, network analysts can easily drill down on network performance and security issues. This allows businesses to quickly identify the root causes of the issues and take appropriate actions to prevent similar incidents in the future.
Profitap observability platform
Our network observability platform encompasses 3 main categories: traffic access with TAPs, filtering & optimization with NPBs, and traffic capture & analysis with IOTA.
Traffic optimization
As network infrastructures evolve towards greater complexity and distributed models, alongside increased network speeds, data volumes, and traffic, it’s important to manage and optimize data sent to monitoring and security tools. Doing this well results in increased efficiency and lower overall costs.
- Packet Slicing
- SSL/TLS Decryption
- Data Masking
- GTP IP Filtering
- Timestamping
- Packet Deduplication
- Tunneling & De-tunneling
- Aggregation
- Replication
- Load Balancing
- Filtering
Optimize bandwidth and storage utilization and ensure security compliance
When using packet slicing, the frame headers are kept, and the payloads dropped. By removing payloads that are irrelevant to your network monitoring and security analysis, tool overload and bandwidth usage can be decreased.

In-band and out-of-band SSL/TLS decryption
The X3-Series supports in-line and out-of-band SSL/TLS traffic decryption. In in-line mode, the X3-Series decrypts and re-encrypts traffic. This allows connected tools to see decrypted data before it is re-encrypted and sent back into the network. Out-of-band decryption means the X3-Series passively decrypts a mirrored or tapped copy of the traffic.

Data masking
Decrypted traffic can expose confidential data to network engineers and analysts, resulting in security or privacy implications. The X3-Series can obfuscate sensitive data to comply with regulations and prevent data leakages. Data masking enables complete visibility into decrypted data without the risk of exposing sensitive data.

Filtering IP-based communication in GTP sessions
The GPRS tunneling protocol (GTP) policies contain rules that permit, deny or tunnel traffic. The Profitap X2-Series NPBs perform GTP policy filtering by checking GTP-U data-plane packets against policies that regulate GTP traffic and by then forwarding, dropping, or tunneling the packet based on these policies.

Measure latency for accurate analysis
A crucial aspect of running and maintaining a network is speed. In the context of network monitoring, speed is linked to the concept of latency, referring to the speed of the network or the Remote Response time.

Removes packet duplicates and provides a substantial reduction in data traffic volume
Duplicate packets are very common in networks. When accessing traffic at multiple locations in the network, picking up the same packets multiple times is almost unavoidable. When duplicate packets are transmitted to your monitoring tools, the unnecessary utilization of bandwidth and processing power reduces the efficiency and effectiveness of these tools.

ERSPAN tunneling and de-tunneling, GRE de-tunneling, VXLAN de-tunneling
NGNPBs provide access to traffic encapsulated for a variety of tunneling protocols, such as Encapsulated Remote SPAN (ERSPAN), Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE), and Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN). These advanced de-tunneling features help ease blind spots of multiple traffic traversing on a network anywhere within your IT infrastructure, whether locally or remotely, physically, or virtually.

Aggregate traffic coming from multiple incoming links
Optimize port, bandwidth, and network tool utilization by consolidating traffic from multiple sources, such as Network TAPs.

Replicate traffic to multiple monitoring and security tools
Traffic replication is the process of making multiple copies of data and forwarding them to different locations, such as NPM/APM tools, network security tools, and data storage.
- X3-Series
- X2-Series
- XX-Series
Balance traffic over multiple monitoring and security tools
When several security tools are deployed, load balancing can optimize the response time and avoid uneven load while another is idling. By distributing the traffic load evenly among the available security tools they are used in the most efficient way. A Network Packet Broke is an ideal tool for this as it sits between the TAPs and security tools.

Send only actionable data to each of the connected tools
Ensure optimum efficiency of monitoring and security tools, and bandwidth utilization, by filtering traffic such that only appropriate data is sent to these network tools
