Case Study: Financial Services Company achieves PCI compliance and faster network visibility with Ixia

Secure, Compliant, Installed within Hours

Financial Services Company, one of the largest secure payment processing providers in the U.S., needed better network visibility to support PCI DSS compliance and to deliver packet data efficiently to its monitoring and security tools. The company was evaluating several vendors, including Ixia, and wanted a cost-effective, easy-to-deploy solution that could improve security and compliance without adding operational overhead.

Ixia implemented a visibility solution built around Ixia Net Tool Optimizer (NTO) appliances, Advanced Feature Module, Flex Tap, Copper Tap, and iBypass 3. The deployment provided complete traffic visibility, strengthened the company’s security posture, and was installed and running within two hours. Ixia also helped the customer avoid an onsite PoC and eliminated the need to hire three additional IT professionals, delivering significant time and cost savings.
