When your IDS fails to detect an intrusion and your firewall logs are just too voluminous to mine, QVision network behavior-visualization tool shows you what's traversing your network. QVision does require up-front work to define anomalous traffic, but its ability to define specific types of network traffic, data reporting and trending capabilities, and over-time visualization gave us a new understanding of our traffic. Although Arbor Networks' PeakFlow won our NBAD review based on our scenario, QVision's broader capabilities earn it the top spot in this category.
