Description

Research from the Internet Security Research Group (ISRG) shows that over 50% of Web traffic is now encrypted, since 2016. As the amount of encrypted traffic mounts, enterprises are being forced into difficult decisions, choosing between visibility and data privacy. An all-together new approach to inspecting encrypted traffic, without exposing sensitive and potentially private data, may be required.

On June 20, 2017, Cisco announced a new solution called Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA), which would offer a non-intrusive method for assessing encrypted traffic for signs of compromise or threats. This paper will provide an overview of the Cisco ETA solution, and assess the practical use of this technology in enterprise networks, and the impact it will have on the security industry.
