Product Details

The High Density SPAN Aggregator with (8) Copper Inputs aggregates up to eight (8) SPAN connections in an OT network. ICS / OT cybersecurity engineers and specialists can connect the SPAN Aggregator to eight (8) industrial switches and aggregate the copies of traffic to 1 or 2 monitoring ports on the Aggregator. The SPAN Aggregator provides visibility to out-of-band security sensors of inter-switch traffic. With its data diode design, the Aggregator makes it impossible to send packets back into the network via the monitoring ports of the Aggregator - preventing hackers from interrupting critical systems. 10/100/1000M networks with RJ-45 Copper connections relying on Switches can leverage the SPAN Aggregator to acquire important data from network without interacting with the OT environment. Connections between network and monitoring ports can be re-configured to aggregate the copies of traffic as needed for one or more security sensors. Perfect for OT networks where space is a premium.

Why Choose Garland SPAN Taps?

  • Provide 100% secure full duplex traffic visibility
  • Maintain network integrity for industrial network monitoring without exposing additional risk
  • Protect the source of data streams between network segments that have different security requirements
  • Supports tap ‘breakout,’ aggregation, regeneration / SPAN mode
  • Physical hardware separation guarantees unidirectional traffic between network segments

Who Should Deploy This Technology?

The Garland line of data diodes and Taps are designed to help companies that either need to aggregate data to forward to security tools such as SIEM’s or Network IDS systems and to provide unidirectional data flow to restrict southbound traffic infiltrating the OT Network. If your current security profile includes an MSSP monitoring your IT network, a TAP can provide data forwarding to the MSSP infrastructure for analysis. 

What Other Options Should Be Considered When Deploying This Technology?

If you do not have a Firewall between OT and IT, The Fortinet rugged series is a great option for perimeter security and deploying data diodes/taps can provide lower level segmentation on the network without the need to manage multiple firewalls. Taps may also be useful when aggregating data to send to security gateways such as IOT365 SIEM product.
