PacketWatch
PacketWatch is network threat-hunting software built around deep packet analysis. Passive collectors capture complete network packets while the cloud platform analyzes packet metadata; the service says high-fidelity data remains stored locally. Machine-learning and artificial-intelligence analytics identify anomalies and create hunt leads, including Command and Control detections. Investigators can filter and replay traffic retrospectively, create nested rules and export PCAP captures as forensic evidence. Virtual collectors capture cloud traffic, with AWS and Azure named as hunting environments. The product addresses persistent threats, insider threats, data exfiltration, Command and Control activity, and IoT, OT and legacy-device activity. Integrations include CrowdStrike Falcon for endpoint telemetry and containment, and Validin for threat intelligence and DNS context. Fully Managed, Co-Managed and Self-Managed SaaS packages are available, with pricing supplied by quote.
