1U Box Frontends First Scalable, Stateful NIDS on Commodity PC Cluster
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- cPacket Networks revealed today that their previously-unannounced cFlow appliance is serving as the load-balancing frontend to a powerful, high-speed network intrusion detection system (NIDS) implemented at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), that uses clusters of commodity hardware for analysis.
