Company advances
workload protection for

utchinson Networks, the Edinburgh-
based network specialist, has
developed a robust and powerful
systems tool called Fabrix Secure Analytics
(FSA). Powered by Cisco Tetration Analytics
and its own Fabrix cloud platform, FSA
adds further network application security
for organisations considering data centre
migration or those that need to build
dynamic security policy models.
The solution combines real-time data
centre telemetry with powerful security
monitoring. This gives organisations detailed
insights to better manage their multi-cloud
infrastructure. Unsupervised Machine
Learning (ML) is then used to build dynamic
security policy models and application
dependency maps using data that is
collected via hardware and software sensors.

Secure Analytics helps organisations to
secure their current data centre estate and
prepare a digital roadmap to implement
their cloud-first strategies.
Stephen Hampton, Chief Technology
Officer at Hutchinson Networks, said:
“Many organisations we speak to need
to make informed migration and security
decisions, however, they lack visibility of their
application flows across their existing estate.
Fabrix Secure Analytics enables them to map
application flows across their environment,
this allows them to understand application
flows across their environment and to
create a security baseline, which enables
implementation of a zero-trust model.”
By adopting the leading-edge technology,
organisations can significantly improve the
management of their data centres and
accelerate migrations to new public and on-
premises deployments.
Stephen Hampton, Chief Technology
Officer, Hutchinson Networks, commented:
“Since building our Fabrix Cloud Platform
in 2015 using the latest Software Defined
Networking (SDN) and Network Functions
Virtualisation (NFV) technologies, the next
logical step in our Roadmap was to provide
forensic data centre analytics through Fabrix
Secure Analytics.
“Along with transit connectivity to major
cloud providers and hyper-converged
solutions, this now gives organisations
a complete set of tools to enable them
to deploy a multi-cloud environment,”
said Hampton. n
