SC Magazine

“If a picture is really worth a thousand words, then QVision’s real-time graphs speak volumes."

 SC Magazine

March, 2004
“Unlike its automated cousins, this system puts humans back in the loop with its real-time monitoring and display capabilities."

“Network performance is displayed in regularly updated graphs, which are easier to interpret than voluminous log files.”

Features:

  • Ease of use
  • Performance

  • Documentation
  • Support

  • Value for money

“Historical performance data is invaluable, especially when planning network changes, but real-time performance displays give you the chance to react to situations as they occur.”

“Further alert conditions can be defined to suit individual network conditions and policies. The system is then ‘aware’ of the way the network ought to behave, and so it can react to situations that would not necessarily trigger a response in other monitoring systems. In this way, it combines the advantages of automatic monitoring with the insight and recognition of trends that humans can have.”


 

Secure Enterprise

“We found that QVision's visualization tools make the product a strong choice for networks with lots of applications and lots of activity.”

 Secure Enterprise

February, 2004
“Q1 Labs' QVision is a different animal. Q1 gave us the tools to visualize network traffic, and through Bookmarks, Sentries and Behavior views, we could customize our analytics. In fact, we spent a good deal of time doing just that, and the result was a customizable and extensible detection product.”

“Uniquely, QVision can identify application traffic regardless of the port on which you see it. Application signatures defined the application name, protocol, common port and some identifiable content in the payload that should uniquely identify the protocol. In this way, QVision can differentiate between Port 80's valid HTTP traffic and its SSH traffic.”

“QVision also automatically captured a configurable amount of packet data in a flow for all flows or flows of an unknown application type only. We found the latter feature useful for initial analysis of traffic didn't match an application type.”

“Features like application detection, data capture and trend reporting make QVision” shine.

“Of course, once we got used to QVision, we went nuts creating a ton of useful bookmarks, Behavior views and Sentries.”


 

Computer Reseller News

“Either way, administrators are no longer in the dark when it comes to connecting network traffic with a particular activity.”

 Computer Reseller News

November, 2003
“What makes QVision a unique offering is the visual component of its management interface, which administrators can use to localize traffic concerns quickly by viewing realtime graphs of network traffic.”





“What’s more, administrators can then drill down through the visual interface to isolate any element of the traffic, including ports, IP addresses, physical or virtual locations, services and even defined applications.”

“Solution providers will find that QVision is an apt tool for protecting networks, managing bandwidth and garnering additional revenue for services previously forgotten or ignored.”


 

InformationSecurity Hot Pick

 InformationSecurity Hot Pick

October, 2003
“Q1 Labs’ QVision 2.0 is a virtual SOC in a Web browser, providing users with the ability to quickly identify malicious and anomalous activity.”

“With multiple sensors, QVision can consolidate the activity of multiple network segments. This capability allows security managers to correlate disparage vents for more holistic network intelligence.”
