Packetwerk is a startup based in Leipzig, Germany that has a novel user†and threatâ€centric inline real-time analytical approach to network security and optimization.
Packetwerk knows that it's all about protecting what is valuable to the business. We know that data networks exist to serve the business and needs to balance areas of risk with their associated costs. We know that humans can be part of the initial problem but also need to be given the right information to be part of the solution. We know that in today’s world and with BYOD there is no longer a clear demarcation between the perimeter and the internal network. We know that it is no longer about detecting and monitoring but rather analyzing and understanding. We know it is all about protecting the user and their traffic.
We also know that security isn't about a single magic box but an ecosystem of solutions sharing information and interacting together to provide an integrated comprehensive protection. Above all, we know that with the ever changing fast-paced threat landscape any meaningful protection can only be achieved with deep network analytics that does not only protect the perimeter but also the internal traffic from external threats and internal malicious users.
