Santa Clara, Calif. May 28, 2025 – Recently, global research and advisory firm Forrester released The Network Analysis and Visibility (NAV) Solutions Landscape, Q2 2025, offering a comprehensive analysis of market dynamics, technology trends, and product capabilities. NSFOCUS has once again [1] been included in this report.
Forrester’s reports on specific technical fields are highly recognized worldwide. In this report, NAV solutions are defined as passive security deployments that analyze real-time network traffic to detect threats through both signature- and behavior-based approaches, establish asset relationships, extract metadata, capture packets, and integrate with other security controls for threat remediation and network forensics. NAV solutions play a critical role in enabling organizations to visualize network status, detect complex intrusions via AI and machine learning, and accelerate response through automated orchestration with EDR, NDR, and next-generation firewalls.
According to the report[2], NSFOCUS is among the Notable Vendors in the NAV space, deploying on-premises, hosted, and private SaaS solutions across verticals such as financial services, government, and telecommunications.
In response to the exponential growth of data and the demand for real-time network analysis, NSFOCUS has developed MagicFlow (MF) a powerful solution with core capabilities in abnormal traffic analysis, threat detection, directional traffic tracing, and comprehensive traffic visibility. Backed by big data, threat intelligence, and machine learning, MF enables global traffic visualization and seamlessly integrates with NSFOCUS Network Traffic Analyzer (NTA) to deliver an end-to-end detection and analysis experience. Relying on the retrospective analysis capacity, MF can help users to uncover malicious activity and refine detection rules, thus visualizing attack paths and facilitating users’ network optimization and attack attribution.
Additionally, NSFOCUS ISOP-NDR, our flagship Network Detection and Response platform, offers full traffic retention and deep analysis capabilities, enhanced by automated response. ISOP-NDR supports advanced threat detection, including zero-days, covert attacks, and APTs, while enabling red-team/blue-team drills to assess defenses without disrupting business operations. It empowers organizations to continuously strengthen their cybersecurity posture and prepare for the future of cyber threats. With the integration of AI & ML enhancements, ISOP-NDR is able to handle false positives while providing high-fidelity, actionable results. These intelligent algorithms continuously learn from network behavior, enabling rapid threat detection, adaptive response, and contextual insights that empower security teams to prioritize real threats with greater accuracy and speed. As a result, organizations can reduce alert fatigue, streamline incident response, and strengthen their overall cybersecurity posture.
Compared with other similar products, NAV-related products of NSFOCUS have leading advantages in core functions such as APT detection, abnormal traffic analysis, real-time threat handling, and attack attribution, and are aimed to provide comprehensive and intelligent cybersecurity solutions that facilitate real-time responses. Up to now, NAV-related products of NSFOCUS have been applied in the government, finance, carrier, enterprise, education, and other sectors, helping users evolve to the next-generation cybersecurity architecture and effectively addressing challenges brought by the development of 5G.
