Record All IP / Ethernet Activity

IPCopper packet capture appliances deliver robust performance in a compact package, providing reliable, comprehensive and complete packet capture 24 / 7. They can record all IP traffic going in and out of an internet connection or just the network activity of a specific computer or other network device. Since IPCopper has no blind spots (it records all IP / Ethernet activity, without exception) it can capture even the types of infiltrations that firewalls and other signature-based network security tools miss.

The current and historical activity captured and recorded by IPCopper appliances greatly aids the diagnoses of viruses, spyware and malware, as well as the detection of data leakage, breaches, unauthorized access, hacking attempts and advanced persistent threats. They are also great at catching improper outbound data transmissions or insider network / internet abuse.

Due to its unique design and capabilities, the appliance requires no babysitting. Simply install it where needed and go; the appliance will autonomously and continuously capture and record network activity data, allowing IT security professionals to maximize their time. With IPCopper packet capture, they can target their efforts toward analyzing the captured data and getting results, rather than closely monitoring and interacting with packet capture software.

In interests of privacy and data security, IPCopper packet capture appliances feature tamperproof enclosures and encrypt all captured data using a 20,000 bit removable key. Additional benefits include:

• A dedicated tool specifically designed for packet capture simplifies detection and analysis.
• Captured data exports to PCAP format, compatible with many network analysis tools.
• Standard 1 GbE and 10 GbE appliances available with capacities from 1 to 24 TB, making it possible to service networks of various speeds and sizes.
• Stealthiness / electronic invisibility keeps installation simple and monitoring unobtrusive, avoiding annoying network reconfigurations and alerting the bad guys that they are under surveillance.
• Appliances available with forensic or continuous-loop data storage, depending on your monitoring needs.
• IPCopper can authenticate captured data and otherwise advise on the status of the data on the appliance.

Network Diagnostics and Troubleshooting

IPCopper packet capture appliances also aid in troubleshooting networking issues, from packet loss and communications errors to incorrect router configurations by showing the exact Ethernet / IP transmissions, without distortion or alteration.

• Record all internet packets, either as tap or pass-through.
• Use IPCopper with any network device, including computers, printers, routers, servers — any device that uses Ethernet framing for communication, regardless of the higher-level protocol (IP, ARP, SMTP, POP, etc.).
• Record communications and monitor single or multiple pieces of equipment with one device.
• Data gathering tool for network forensics
• Log access to databases, servers and other sensitive networked equipment
• Unsurpassed network traffic collection and recording

As one of the most lightweight packet capture appliances on the market, IPCopper is also extremely portable, making it easy to take to any problem area and install as needed.
