The Role of Network TAPs, Hardware Data Diodes and Network Packet Brokers in Risk Mitigation
Effective risk mitigation begins with full network visibility. Without clear insights into traffic and data flows, your organization can be exposed to security vulnerabilities, compliance failures and other operational risks. Garland Technology’s solutions including TAPs, Data Diodes and Network Packet Brokers let you see every packet, so you can detect anomalies earlier, meet compliance requirements and keep operations running smoothly.

CONTINOUS MONITORING
A Cornerstone of Risk Mitigation
Continuous monitoring is essential to identifying and addressing risks before they escalate. With unaltered, real-time packet capture, organizations can:
- Proactively detect vulnerabilities and misconfigurations that expose your network to risk
- Respond to potential threats swiftly and accurately
- Maintain compliance with industry regulations, such as NIS2, HIPAA, and NERC CIP
By capturing 100% of packet-level data, continuous monitoring enabled by Garland solutions
provides an efficient and effective risk mitigation strategy to help safeguard operations.
Reducing Risk with Zero Trust – Enabled by Garland Technology
A Zero Trust approach to cybersecurity helps lower risk in part by continuously evaluating every connection and packet, and by verifying all activity. Inspecting every packet instead of ‘trusting’ its validity can expose threat actors and breach attempts, lowering risk and protecting operations. In other words, Zero Trust works by eliminating blind spots and maintaining constant vigilance.
Garland Technology solutions enable Zero Trust in exactly this way, letting you monitor 100% of network traffic down to the packet level and giving you real-time visibility as the data is analyzed for security and performance anomalies.

Real-World Risk Mitigation Success Stories
- Critical infrastructure precautions. A European utility improved compliance with NERC CIP regulations by implementing Garland Technology’s visibility solutions, which ensured unidirectional traffic flows and eliminated vulnerabilities in east-west traffic monitoring.
- Healthcare data protection. A hospital system mitigated risks to sensitive patient data and ensured HIPAA compliance through enhanced visibility across its hybrid network.
- Operational technology (OT) security. A U.S. energy provider used Garland Technology’s tools to secure low-speed industrial networks, reducing risks in a challenging environment with multiple legacy systems.
Building a Resilient Network
to Reduce Risks
Improving network security resilience requires complete visibility. Without a clear view of your network traffic, it’s impossible to accurately identify vulnerabilities and monitor potential threats. Garland Technology’s approach to risk mitigation ensures:
- Uninterrupted operations to eliminate single points of failure and maintain uptime
- Proactive threat detection to identify and neutralize risks before they impact operations
- Scalable security frameworks to adapt your networks for emerging challenges
By combining advanced visibility tools with a proactive risk mitigation strategy, organizations can protect their assets, reduce downtime, and keep pace with evolving security demands.
