Hillstone Networks Recognized as a Representative Provider in the Network Detection and Response Market

Author:

Hillstone Networks, a leading provider of cybersecurity solutions, has once again been recognized as a representative provider in the Network Detection and Response (NDR) market. NDR is a common add-on to Security Operations Center (SOC) tools and plays a key role in detecting and mitigating security breaches such as ransomware or insider threats, complementing rule-based and signature-based technologies.

According to Gartner, NDR should provide formal factors compatible with local and cloud networks through physical or virtual sensors to analyze raw traffic in packet networks or flow traffic. It should also model normal network traffic and alert on unusual behavior that deviates from its normal range, as well as consolidate individual alerts into structured incident records to facilitate threat investigation and provide automatic or manual response options for detecting malicious network traffic.

Tim Liu, CTO and Co-Founder of Hillstone Networks, acknowledges the growing complexity of targeted attacks, difficulties in tracking and patching known vulnerabilities, and the inability to detect lateral movement in large networks faced by CISOs and security teams. He believes their inclusion in Gartner’s Market Guide is based on the effective combination of network intrusion detection system with the best-in-class intelligent platform for security operations, which promptly responds to the changing needs of their customers in the field of cybersecurity.

Key findings from Gartner’s Market Guide for NDR include the use of NDR in conjunction with other SOC tools and the use of solutions from larger vendors in combination with “new local players” for more reliable outcomes, depending on specific customer needs.

Hillstone’s NDR solution integrates various security features for comprehensive protection, from detection to visibility, forensics analysis, and mitigation. It offers a comprehensive traffic overview for scalable coverage across the entire enterprise, diverse threat and anomaly detection options with sophisticated visualization for Security Operations (SecOps) teams, and seamless integration with SOAR, SIEM, and third-party systems.

Hillstone’s NDR solution consists of the Hillstone Breach Detection System for visibility into north-south and east-west traffic in data centers or campus networks, along with XDR, iSource, a big data analysis platform for security operations, threat detection, and response. This combination enables a high-performance NDR solution with advanced UI/ML capabilities that can map attacks across different elements of the cyber kill chain and the MITRE ATT&CK framework for insights into known and unknown threats.

Hillstone Networks operates in the cybersecurity industry, providing solutions for network detection and response (NDR). This industry is focused on protecting organizations from security breaches, such as ransomware or insider threats. NDR is an important component of Security Operations Center (SOC) tools, helping to detect and mitigate these types of security incidents.

Market forecasts suggest a growing demand for NDR solutions due to the increasing complexity of targeted attacks and the challenges faced by CISOs and security teams in tracking and patching known vulnerabilities. The inability to detect lateral movement in large networks is also a concern. Hillstone Networks addresses these challenges by combining a network intrusion detection system with an intelligent platform for security operations.

Gartner, a leading research and advisory firm, has recognized Hillstone Networks as a representative provider in the NDR market. According to Gartner’s Market Guide for NDR, the use of NDR in conjunction with other SOC tools is recommended for more reliable outcomes. It also suggests considering solutions from larger vendors in combination with “new local players” based on specific customer needs.
