Ixia entered into a partnership with NSS Labs, an information
security research and advisory company, to provide customers with the
tools and knowledge needed to test and validate network security in
their labs. In combination with Ixia’s award-winning security
solutions, the new NSS Test Packs provide enterprises and equipment
manufacturers the ability to find network security issues and
failures in their own labs prior to deployment, saving time and
costs.
Network security test cycles, in pre-deployment enterprise
networks and in equipment manufacturer R&D, are critical to
ensuring the resiliency of enterprise networks and the corresponding
networking equipment. However, the traditional test cycles can be
lengthy and expensive. Using Ixia’s security solutions along with
the NSS Test Packs, enterprises and equipment manufacturers now have
a streamlined way to benefit from the gold standard of testing to
evaluate and test products for performance, resiliency and efficacy.
“The core competencies of Ixia’s security solutions coupled
with our testing know-how, provides a level of assurance for
companies looking to manage risk against a backdrop where threats are
constantly evolving,” said Vikram Phatak, CEO of NSS Labs. “By
partnering with Ixia, our testing expertise and procedures can now be
implemented by a wider range of businesses to ensure their
investments are ready to go to market at a much lower cost.”
Ixia’s support for the NSS Test Packs provides customers both
the expertise of what test methodologies are needed to ensure network
infrastructure security and the technology solution needed to perform
the tests. This combination helps customers speed time to market and
use critical resources on their products – not on test development
and cycles.
