SmartFlow is an IT cyber security monitoring tool that uses Anomaly Detection to pinpoint hard-to-detect security threats. SmartFlow complements existing signature based security monitoring tools. It analyzes network flow traffic to detect zero-day security attacks. Smartflow is an appliance based solution and targeted for medium and large enterprises. SmartFlow utilizes patent-pending anomaly detection techniques and network behaviour analysis to identify security threats in a network. It applies Solana algorithms on flow data such as Netflow to detect address scans, DDoS attacks, Botnets, port scans, malware etc. Zero day threats and encrypted malicious traffic (such as Botnet Command & Control) may escape detection by signature-based security monitoring tools. However, they will not escape detection by SmartFlow. SmartFlow distills network traffic and flow data into more than 20 different statistical measures which it continuously analyzes for early warnings of cyber threats.
