SmartNIC Solutions for Network Security

At RSA Conference 2022, we are thrilled to be demonstrating how SmartNIC solutions can accelerate network security applications

SmartNIC Solutions for Network Security

Leading cybersecurity applications can achieve tremendous performance improvements through SmartNIC acceleration. Not only does this help you to strengthen your security posture by ensuring complete network visibility, but it also allows you to minimize your TCO by reducing the number of servers required for security application hosting.

Our intelligent, flow-aware capabilities provide stateful awareness offering the ability for the SmartNIC to provide lossless per-flow action processing on behalf of the application to drop, forward, or redirect flows, thus reducing the data load on the application and massively boosting performance.

For virtualized security solutions, the Napatech SmartNIC dramatically increases server throughput while freeing up CPU cycles for more VMs and applications by offloading the virtual switching data plane.

Because it is FPGA-driven, the software offers unique reconfigurability to add more capabilities on the fly beyond virtual switching, e.g., encryption and decryption.
