Narus Expands Traffic Intelligence Solution to Webmail Targeting

NarusInsight Intercept Suite Enhanced to Solve Critical
Requirements for Targeting, Capturing and Reconstruction of Complex
Webmail Traffic
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(Business Wire)--Narus, Inc., the leader in carrier-class security and traffic
intelligence for the world's largest IP networks, today announced its
latest version of NarusInsight(TM) Intercept Suite (NIS), the
industry's only network traffic intelligence system that supports
real-time precision targeting, capturing and reconstruction of webmail
traffic. Narus technology has long been recognized for its ability to
identify and track almost all network and application protocols across
very large networks.

Targeting and capturing webmail traffic is a difficult challenge
due to the proprietary and frequent changing nature of webmail
services being monitored. The NarusInsight Intercept Suite (NIS) has
solved this problem and is now capable of precision targeting,
capturing and reconstructing numerous aspects of webmail traffic
including email, chat, calendaring, draft folders, address books and
much more. Traffic from all nodes and numerous protocols can be
reassembled and viewed from a single management station or distributed
across multiple stations. In addition, NIS supports a large percentage
of all webmail services, including Google Gmail, MSN Hotmail, Yahoo!
Mail, and Gawab Mail (English and Arabic versions).

Narus traffic intelligence uses proprietary techniques that allow
traffic identification independent of many local network features such
as asymmetric routing and local languages. These capabilities are used
in the NIS to reassemble English and non-English language webmail
carried over proprietary protocols.

The NarusInsight Intercept Suite (NIS) allows the capture of
packet-level, flow-level, and application-level usage information
along with complete session packets for forensic analysis, intercept,
or for satisfying regulatory compliance. It is built on the powerful
NarusInsight system, the only carrier-class IP traffic processing
system that provides the complete, real-time network visibility
essential to protecting and managing complex IP networks. By adding
webmail and asymmetric monitoring capabilities, NIS provides the
following new features:

-- Support for target and capture of communication using popular
webmail services such as Yahoo! Mail, MSN Hotmail, and Google
Gmail. The webmail intercept enables service providers and
government organizations to capture email messages sent to and
from webmail services.

-- Support for target, capture and reconstruction of IP-based
communication routed asymmetrically, and the ability to
invisibly monitor networks directly without involving any
other network elements.

"Terrorists and criminals are increasingly utilizing IP services
such as VoIP, email and Skype to communicate, leading to government
mandates for the monitoring and lawful intercept of these services,"
said Greg Oslan, President and CEO, Narus. "The latest iteration of
NIS follows a long line of powerful and unique products developed by
Narus and once again raises the bar, providing unparalleled monitoring
and intercept capabilities to service providers and government
organizations around the world."

NarusInsight Intercept Suite is installed worldwide and is
supported by an international set of partners that are capable of
delivering this proprietary solution to any location on the globe.
