Narus, Inc. today announced the next generation of NarusInsight(TM), the only carrier-class IP traffic processing system that provides the complete, real-time network visibility essential to secure, manage and deliver Services over IP (SoIP). As the foundation for the industry’s most advanced IP security, intercept and traffic classification applications, NarusInsight is unique in its ability to simultaneously provide deep-packet inspection from layer 2 to layer 7 and complete correlation across every link and element on the network — all at core carrier speeds. NarusInsight 5 now processes full-packet layer 7 traffic at speeds up to OC-48 (2.5Gb/sec) and layer 4 traffic at speeds up to OC-192 (10Gb/sec), providing carriers with the flexibility and superior price performance benefits associated with deploying at both the network edge and the high-speed core. In addition, NarusInsight 5’s new security application modules (the NarusInsight Secure Suite) feature the industry’s first entropy-based security algorithms, providing telecom carriers with unprecedented early detection of sophisticated new-breed anomalies such as low-volume and polymorphic worms, layer 7 protocol attacks, and application attacks.

Narus, Inc. today announced that it has signed an agreement with VeriSign, Inc. that allows VeriSign to offer the entire suite of Narus products to its global customer base as managed services or licensed software. This includes capabilities for security, traffic analysis and lawful interception.

The first Narus product being offered by VeriSign is Narus LI for IP lawful intercept, one of the industry’s most comprehensive IP lawful intercept products for carrier-grade networks.
