Secure, transform, and route traffic to services running anywhere. localhost to prod, APIs to AI models, and much more, already built by millions of developers and trusted by teams at Twilio, GitHub, Okta, Microsoft, Zoom, and Databricks.

NETSCOUT Arbor Sightline is a high-performance network visibility and DDoS detection platform engineered for the demands of large-scale service provider environments. It provides deep, real-time insight into IP traffic by ingesting and analyzing flow data such as NetFlow, sFlow, and IPFIX. For cybersecurity teams, this means having a continuous, comprehensive view of network behavior that enables rapid detection of anomalies, volumetric attacks, and stealthy threats that could otherwise evade traditional perimeter defenses.
