SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - January 15, 2016) - Damballa, a leader in Network Security Monitoring for advanced threats and Interface Masters, a leader in Network Visibility and Uptime Solutions have partnered to ensure a complete network security solution that provides coverage across 1G and 10G Network links, non-blocking visibility and full security coverage including network behavior, content and threat analysis.
The joint Damballa and Interface Masters solution offers a cost-effective approach to provide comprehensive network visibility, deep packet inspection, Netflow & traffic monitoring, content inspection, endpoint analysis, and behavioral classification to detect complex, evolving and varied threats in real time. Together, Damballa and Interface Masters provide a plug-and-play passive network security solution that ensures network access and uptime, with intuitive and comprehensive user interface, reporting, and notifications.
The Network TAP ports of Interface Masters' hybrid Network Packet Broker (NPB), Niagara 2804, connect to each side of one or multiple bi-directional 1G or 10G network links and transparently pass network traffic while ensuring network integrity and network uptime in case of any power failure, link loss or software crash via fail-to-wire protection. The appliance NPB ports (1G/10G flexible SFP+ ports) provide the ability to loadbalance, aggregate, filter and/or mirror the tapped Network traffic to one or multiple Damballa Failsafe® Sensors. Damballa Failsafe® takes a multi-faceted approach using a multitude of detection techniques that analyze network behavior, malicious content and applies threat intelligence. The integrated solution provides a seamless passive network monitoring and visibility solution tailored to protect enterprises, service providers, governments, and institutions.
"Interface Masters' partnership with Damballa will provide significant value to customers looking for a turn-key solution that can provide non-intrusive network access to 10G and 1G networks and comprehensive network security coverage," stated Aaron Nankin, Director of Business Development at Interface Masters Technologies.

About Damballa
Damballa was founded in 2006 by pioneering data scientists from the Georgia Institute of Technology who were conducting Ph.D.-level research around malicious network communications. They quickly realized that security controls designed to stop attackers at the perimeter would not measure up to advanced methods. Their work caught the interest of ISPs, mobile carriers and forward-thinking large enterprises. Concepts developed in the University lab were put operationalized in live networks and Damballa was born. Damballa delivers advanced threat protection for active threats that bypass traditional security layers, rapidly discovering infections with certainty and pinpointing compromises that represent the highest risk to a business.
