The Cloud Intelligence Platform (CIP) is a virtualized cloud packet broker designed to provide network traffic visibility across hybrid cloud environments, including on-premises, private cloud, and public cloud infrastructures. CIP aggregates, processes, and filters network packets while ingesting intelligent metadata, enabling visibility into network performance, security, and compliance across distributed environments. Key capabilities include: - Advanced IPv4 and IPv6 packet parsing and manipulation from OSI Layer 2 through Layer 7 - Header and payload slicing, and data masking - Application filtering and Regular Expression (RegEx) filtering - NetFlow/IPFIX metadata generation - Tunnel termination supporting ERSPAN, GRE, NVGRE, VXLAN, GENEVE, and other protocols - Selective TLS decryption - Mobile subscriber-aware visibility - Packet deduplication and replication CIP is positioned as a software-defined, cloud-native solution that enables NetOps and SecOps teams to gain unified visibility across physical and virtual network infrastructures without requiring dedicated hardware at each inspection point. It supports sophisticated packet conditioning use cases and is designed to feed downstream security and monitoring tools with filtered, processed traffic and metadata.
