NETSCOUT wins “Overall Network Security Solution of the Year”

When it comes to cybersecurity, visibility is everything. Without it, even the most advanced tools can’t help teams detect, investigate, or respond effectively to threats lurking in their networks.

That’s why we’re proud to announce that NETSCOUT’s Omnis Cyber Intelligence has been named “Overall Network Security Solution of the Year” in the ninth annual CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards. This recognition honors the most innovative companies and technologies shaping the future of cybersecurity, and we’re thrilled to be counted among them.

What sets us apart

The challenge: Visibility gaps create risk

Modern enterprises face expanding attack surfaces, hybrid cloud environments, and increasing operational complexity. Security teams are flooded with alerts but lack the visibility to see what’s truly happening behind them.

Many tools promise detection, but few deliver the clarity and confidence that come from true visibility. Without that clarity, investigations stall, threats linger, and response times grow longer, creating risk that no organization can afford.

The innovation: Always-on, packet-based intelligence

Omnis Cyber Intelligence changes that dynamic by delivering a continuous, comprehensive view of network activity. Built on NETSCOUT’s industry-leading deep packet inspection (DPI) at scale, Omnis Cyber Intelligence continuously captures, analyzes, and stores high-fidelity network metadata, independent of detections.

This always-on visibility ensures nothing slips through the cracks. Security teams gain full context into every connection, even before an alert fires. Omnis Cyber Intelligence’s on-sensor storage architecture minimizes data movement, helping organizations meet compliance and data-sovereignty requirements by keeping sensitive data close to its source.

The impact: Bridging the gap between detection and response

While most solutions stop at detection, Omnis Cyber Intelligence goes further. By combining real-time analytics with historical network context, it bridges the critical gap between alert and action, empowering analysts to understand how and why an attack occurred.

Whether hunting zero-day threats, analyzing encrypted traffic, or investigating suspicious behavior across cloud and on-prem environments, Omnis Cyber Intelligence provides the context, clarity, and confidence teams need to act decisively. And with integrations across major ecosystems, including AWS, Microsoft, Google Cloud, and more, Omnis Cyber Intelligence delivers end-to-end visibility for today’s distributed enterprises.

Recognition of innovation

The CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards program received thousands of nominations from more than 20 countries. Winners were selected for redefining how we safeguard the digital world through innovation, performance, and measurable impact.

As Steve Johansson, managing director at CyberSecurity Breakthrough, noted, “Modern network complexities create blind spots that limit understanding, insight, and automation based on network behavior. Omnis Cyber Intelligence addresses these complexities and delivers complete network transparency, accelerating incident response and improving overall security posture.”

Setting the standard for network security

For decades, NETSCOUT has delivered packet-level visibility at scale, helping the world’s largest enterprises and service providers maintain performance and security across the most demanding environments.

This award validates what our customers already know: When you can see everything, you can stop anything. We’re honored by this recognition and even more committed to helping organizations around the world defend with clarity, respond with confidence, and continuously outsmart evolving threats.
