Netify - Network Intelligence Platform is a comprehensive solution for visibility and intelligence into network traffic. It combines local deep packet inspection (DPI) with cloud-based analytics to deliver actionable, business-driven insights for performance, security, and optimization. The stack starts with a lightweight DPI engine to passively collect data on the local network, identifies applications, protocols, hostnames, encryption ciphers, and other attributes, and can be deployed within network devices for traffic identification, firewalling, QoS, and cybersecurity. The collected data is then processed by Netify Informatics to transform raw signals into proactive network intelligence, and Data Feeds provide enriched context for vendors and operators to understand application behavior.
What is Netify?
Netify provides network intelligence and visibility. Its key components are:
- DPI Engine: Passively collects data on the local network to identify applications, protocols, hostnames, encryption ciphers, and other attributes.
- Informatics: Aggregates DPI data, transmits it to cloud (public or private), and generates insights for threat detection, performance bottlenecks, and usage patterns.
- Data Feeds: Delivers enriched data (domains, IPs, CDNs, platforms, protocols, etc.) to help vendors understand how applications behave online.
How it Works
- Deploy DPI agents with zero network disruption to monitor traffic locally.
- DPI identifies traffic characteristics (applications, protocols, device inventory, QoS metrics, security indicators).
- Informatics ingests DPI data, sends it to cloud analytics, and emits network intelligence (event alerts, visibility, risk assessment, forensics).
- Data Feeds produce actionable data (IPs, domains, CDNs, VPNs, Tor nodes, etc.) for integration with security, performance, and compliance workflows.
