Cymphonix
Peer 2 Peer (P2P) Control
With unparalleled
XLi scanning Network Composer delivers the most powerful P2P control
available in a network appliance. This incredible solution saves
Administrators time in identifying and controlling users that are
taxing network resources and exposing companies to costly litigation
by using P2P applications. Network Composer is also the only solution
that utilizes event correlation to show how P2P file sharing impacts
your network as a whole.
On a global scale, illegal file sharing costs companies billions of dollars in productivity and bandwidth each year. For your organization alone P2P means increased bandwidth costs, the slowing of mission-critical applications, and even exposure to legal liability if employees are illegally sharing and downloading copyrighted files. While internet usage policies help, you can ensure illegal file sharing is controlled with Network Composer.
Advanced Scanning Reveals Masked Applications and Users
P2P applications are getting more complex - masking users and applications to prevent them from being discovered. Other so-called P2P control applications only keep users from downloading the file sharing applications from specified URLs. But with XLi scanning deep into the packet payload Cymphonix's solutions quickly identify file sharing applications and their users.
