"Mu's Analyzer fills a critical void in the market today, nothing previously available has been able to probe as effectively for exploitable flaws caused by layered protocols and their many interdependencies. The Mu-4000 does this in a generalized and automated fashion that is very different from other systems currently available. Network operators and their equipment vendors will all benefit from the proactive service assurance insight afforded by Mu's Analyzer. "

Use Cases: National Government Agency

A large government agency is tasked with certification and accreditation of all new or updated network products as well as pinpointing and eliminating cyber weaknesses. The agency traditionally conducted manual and expensive, yet incomplete, research that found inherent product vulnerabilities were the underlying source of many network exploits. Frequently government agencies use proprietary protocols, which makes analysis on IP-enabled devices difficult if not impossible. Such agencies need a proactive service assurance platform and a repeatable process that easily automates existing attack scripts as well as send millions of variations of service traffic as well as denial-of-service simulations to more completely stress test their systems and applications. 

This agency now depends on the Mu-4000 platform to aggressively identify and help remediate underlying service weaknesses before they result in downtime, either from unintentional (interoperability) or intentional (hackers) causes. The result is more accurate and in-depth analysis to bolster systems to be more resistant to cyber threats. The agency also plans to use their Mu-4000 analyzers to help disseminate best practices around cyber threat testing and to coordinate incident response activities.
