New CyPerf software accelerates SD-WAN and
cloud migration by finding the optimum balance between digital user
experience and security
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology
company that helps enterprises, service providers and governments
accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, announced
the industry’s first cloud-native distributed network performance
and security test software – CyPerf – which helps organizations
characterize user experience and validate the performance limits of
hybrid networks, security devices and services for confident
rollouts.

New technologies such as SD-WAN, multi-cloud architectures and
software as a service (SaaS) applications evolve network and
security architectures to a distributed, hybrid model. As more
users, devices, applications, services and data reside outside of
an organization, IT teams need to measure the performance and
security of networks and application services. As a result, network
and security operations share the objective of guaranteeing a
well-performing and secure network.
Built using a light-weight, software agent-based architecture,
Keysight’s CyPerf software is easy to deploy and operate in lab
networks, sandbox environments and hybrid production networks.
CyPerf offers:
- A holistic approach for realistic pre- and post-deployment
testing in distributed environments.
- Insights into the end user experience, security posture and
performance bottlenecks while under controllable, realistic load
conditions.
- Real-world results by simultaneously generating legitimate
traffic mixes and malicious activities that can transverse a
complex distributed network consisting of proxies, software-defined
wide area networking (SD-WAN), transport layer security (TLS)
inspection, elastic load balancers (ELBs), and web application
firewalls (WAF).
- A proactive, continuous data-driven approach that IT network
operators can utilize to validate and analyze changes in user
experience, performance and security compared with previously
established baselines.
- Network and security operations teams the ability to find the
balance between the digital user experience and security in their
organizations.
- Network security tool vendors the ability to realistically
replicate their customers’ environments to accelerate the
time-to-market of their solutions and services.
“As more users, devices, applications, services and data move to
the network edge, a new approach is needed to validate performance
and security,” said Ram Periakaruppan, vice president and general
manager, at Keysight Network Applications & Security Group.
“CyPerf can be deployed by enterprises and network security vendors
to fine-tune the balance between digital user experience and
security in a dynamic hybrid environment that consists of
third-party cloud providers and network connectivity. Performance
and security are only as good as the weakest part of a network, and
CyPerf identifies those weaknesses with a view into the full
application delivery path in hybrid networks.”
