About NEOX NETWORKS
NEOX NETWORKS provides network visibility for IT and OT observability and security. NEOX offers network visibility solutions for hybrid-cloud IT observability, including Network TAPs, Network Packet Brokers, Packet Capture, and Packet Processing and Analysis physical and virtual appliances. NEOX products address network challenges faced by IT Security and Application Operations teams. The NEOX PacketOps™ Framework unifies how organizations Access, Direct, Record, and Protect network traffic across physical, virtual, cloud, AI, IT, and OT environments. NEOX provides access to packet data, directs traffic to tools, records traffic for investigation, and protects critical infrastructure with integrated security controls.[1][3][4]
NEOX states its mission as eliminating blind spots across physical, virtual, and cloud environments. Timur Özcan is Founder and Managing Director of NEOX NETWORKS. NEOX network visibility solutions are designed and built in Germany. For security operations, NEOX extracts and forwards log, flow and packet level network data and alerts to security tools. For network operations, NEOX extracts and forwards log, flow, and packet level network data to observability and analysis tools. For cloud operations, NEOX extracts and forwards log, flow, and packet level VPC network data and alerts to security tools. Network challenges named by NEOX include demand for high-speed network traffic access, processing and manipulation to feed security and performance tools, up to 400Gbps.[4][6]
Network TAPs let users export a copy of their data traffic without affecting the active network connection and evaluate it with tools. NEOXPacketRaven Secure Modular Fiber TAPs are designed for use in critical environments (CRITIS). NEOXPacketRaven Secure Modular Fiber TAPs have an optical isolator and an optical filter with data diode functionality that prevent accidental or intentional injections of data into the monitored network. NEOXPacketRavenVirtual is a Virtual Network TAP that provides physical and virtual security and monitoring tools with network visibility in virtualised private, public and hybrid cloud environments. NEOXPacketRaven vTAP supports tapping of inter-Docker traffic, meaning communication between microservices.[1]
PacketOwl is a set of 10G, 25G, 40G, and 100G network security appliances for visibility and real-time threat detection. PacketOwl is powered by NEOX’s proprietary FPGA-based architecture and an enhanced version of Suricata, the open-source network threat detection engine, and provides real-time threat detection, logging, and alerting. PacketOwl operates as a unified NIDS, NSM, and NDR platform. PacketOwl generates real-time alerts for SIEM integration, triggered by threats, anomalies, and rules. PacketOwl creates structured logs from security events and IOCs, enriched with contextual metadata. PacketOwl captures packets on detection and IOC triggers, preserving only relevant traffic. PacketOwl offers up to 720TB of onboard SSD/SED storage. PacketOwl handles up to 10,000 events per second with up to 2GB of logs per minute. PacketOwl is described as compliant with Government/Federal EO 14028, M-21-30, and FIPS 140-2. PacketOwl is integrated with the Stamus Clear NDR solution as a 100Gbps NDR probe. PacketOwl Virtual supports cloud and multi-cloud threat hunting and forensics for SDDC, AWS, Azure, and GCP. PacketOwl integrates into existing security environments on-premises, in the cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP), or hybrid. PacketOwl appliances come with NEOX SILVER Support and can be upgraded to GOLD Support for advanced replacement in case of a hardware failure.[2][3][8]
NEOXPacketRoo is a data diode that provides galvanic isolation of the networks and enables only unidirectional transmission. NEOXPacketRoo is offered exclusively in fixed configurations where no port settings can be changed after installation. NEOX Networks offers NEOXSecureFileTransmitter, a software solution for secure, one-way file transfer from OT to IT systems. NEOXSecureFileTransmitter works independently of the manufacturer and can be integrated into existing infrastructures that already have a data diode. NEOXSecureFileTransmitter combined with PacketRoo forms a solution for Windows and Linux environments.[9]
NEOX works with enterprises, service providers, and government institutions. PacketOwl is purpose-built for enterprises, data centers, service providers, HFT/HPC environments, edge networks, and other critical deployments. Network challenges named by NEOX include increased need for network intelligence for cybersecurity in sectors such as Banking, Utilities, Healthcare, and Government. NEOX co-creates offerings with industry specialists for verticals such as Financial Services, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Transportation, Energy & Utilities, Government, and Defense. NEOX is establishing a partner-first channel model across North America, EMEA, and APAC. Apeiro Networks acts as a value-added reseller for NEOX solutions in selected Asia Pacific countries. Deutsche Bahn needed a network visibility platform to strengthen the security posture of its public transportation critical infrastructure. NEOX offers inline-bypass TAPs for security tools during updates or maintenance, and supports encrypted traffic handling and forward proxying for financial data centers and branch deployments. NEOX feeds telemetry to tools for Network Detection & Response (NDR), Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS), and Network Security Monitoring (NSM) across on-prem and hybrid infrastructures.[1][3][4][6][8][9][10][11]
