A growing trend in the networking community is the increased
focus on network security. Denial of service attacks are rising
costing organisations time and money. Even through 98% of
organisations use firewalls, one third are still at risk from
DOS attacks. Spam also represents more than 50% of emails,
spammers are finding cleverer ways of penetrating filters
and worms are being used to infaltrate computer systems. In
response, equipment manufacturers are developing more powerful
spam and filter applications and integrating firewalls with
many other security features like intrusion detection.
Combined with the Agilent
N2X multi-service tester, the Agilent
NetworkTester companion product expands Agilent's comprehensive
portfolio by providing performance testing of Layer 4-7 security
and content networking devices and application services.
