Abstract: A method includes analyzing, via a first capturing agent, packets processed in a first environment associated with a first host to yield first data. The method includes analyzing, via a second capturing agent, packets processed by a second environment associated with a second host to yield second data, collecting the first data and the second data at a collector to yield aggregated data, transmitting the aggregated data to an analysis engine which analyzes the aggregated data to yield an analysis. Based on the analysis, the method includes identifying first packet loss at the first environment and second packet loss at the second environment.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for generating a unique ID for a sensor in a network. Once the sensor is installed on a component of the network, the sensor can send attributes of the sensor to a control server of the network. The attributes of the sensor can include at least one unique identifier of the sensor or the host component of the sensor. The control server can determine a hash value using a one-way hash function and a secret key, send the hash value to the sensor, and designate the hash value as a sensor ID of the sensor. In response to receiving the sensor ID, the sensor can incorporate the sensor ID in subsequent communication messages. Other components of the network can verify the validity of the sensor using a hash of the at least one unique identifier of the sensor and the secret key.

Abstract: An application and network analytics platform can capture telemetry from servers and network devices operating within a network. The application and network analytics platform can determine an application dependency map (ADM) for an application executing in the network. Using the ADM, the application and network analytics platform can resolve flows into flowlets of various granularities, and determine baseline metrics for the flowlets. The baseline metrics can include transmission times, processing times, and/or data sizes for the flowlets. The application and network analytics platform can compare new flowlets against the baselines to assess availability, load, latency, and other performance metrics for the application. In some implementations, the application and network analytics platform can automate remediation of unavailability, load, latency, and other application performance issues.

Abstract: An example method includes detecting, using sensors, packets throughout a datacenter. The sensors can then send packet logs to various collectors which can then identify and summarize data flows in the datacenter. The collectors can then send flow logs to an analytics module which can identify the status of the datacenter and detect an attack.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for gathering network intrusion counter-intelligence. A system can maintain a decoy network environment at one or more machines. The system can identify a malicious user accessing network services through the network environment. Further, the system can receive network service access requests from the user at one or more machines in the network environment and subsequently direct the network service access requests from the malicious user to the decoy network environment based on an identification of the malicious user. The network services access requests can be satisfied with network service access responses generated in the decoy network environment. Subsequently, the system can maintain malicious user analytics based on the network service access requests of the malicious user that are directed to the decoy network environment.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to intent driven network management. A system is configured to maintain an inventory store comprising records for a set of network entities in a network, wherein each network entity in the set of network entities is associated with a record in the inventory store. The system receives a user intent statement comprising an action and a flow filter representing network data flows on which the action is to be applied and queries, based on the flow filter, the inventory store to identify a plurality of network entities in the set of network entities to which the user intent statement applies. The system generates a plurality of network policies that implement the user intent statement based on the plurality of network entities and the action and enforces the plurality network policies.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for annotating process and user information for network flows. In some embodiments, a capturing agent, executing on a first device in a network, can monitor a network flow associated with the first device. The first device can be, for example, a virtual machine, a hypervisor, a server, or a network device. Next, the capturing agent can generate a control flow based on the network flow. The control flow may include metadata that describes the network flow. The capturing agent can then determine which process executing on the first device is associated with the network flow and label the control flow with this information. Finally, the capturing agent can transmit the labeled control flow to a second device, such as a collector, in the network.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a network agent for generating platform specific network policies. A network agent is configured to receive a platform independent network policy from a network policy system, determine implementation characteristics of the network entity, generate platform specific policies from the platform independent network policy based on the implementation characteristics of the network entity, and implement the platform specific policies on the network entity.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for annotating process and user information for network flows. In some embodiments, a capturing agent, executing on a first device in a network, can monitor a network flow associated with the first device. The first device can be, for example, a virtual machine, a hypervisor, a server, or a network device. Next, the capturing agent can generate a control flow based on the network flow. The control flow may include metadata that describes the network flow. The capturing agent can then determine which process executing on the first device is associated with the network flow and label the control flow with this information. Finally, the capturing agent can transmit the labeled control flow to a second device, such as a collector, in the network.
