FARMINGDALE, NY — (Marketwired) — 06/03/15 — , a leader in the development and deployment of network monitoring and management software for the Unified Communications (UC) industry, announced today a new tool under its Unified Communications Management Platform (UCMP), the Experience Assurance Module (EAM), which is a real-time rules-based policy engine to manage multi-vendor network infrastructure.
Nectar–s EAM was developed under a joint technology venture by Nectar and enterprise voice/UC policy enforcement leader, . Nectar–s flagship offering, its Unified Communications Management Platform coupled with its award-winning Unified Communications Diagnostics (UCD) tool, are uniquely positioned to become the de-facto network aware solution for multi-vendor UC Monitoring and Diagnostics. The SDN frameworks provide the ideal API driven interface for deep session awareness. It is Nectar–s broad and deep knowledge of every UC session and its quality of session (QoS) level diagnostics — all in real-time — that creates the core awareness needed for a real-time UC-SDN solution.
With the integration of SecureLogix–s next generation policy engine, Nectar–s UCMP with the Experience Assurance Module is now able to deliver the industry–s first multi-vendor UC-SDN solution with enhanced security, management, service quality, and performance monitoring for UC and collaboration services. “Nectar is leading with next generation SDN remediation and dynamic programmability for UC networks. We have a proven and long standing history of developing and producing innovation in the market, while other vendors are still trying to define a strategy beyond basic UC and user experience reporting,” said Nectar CTO, Joe Fuccillo.
With the rapid adoption of bring your own device (BYOD), monitoring and management of real-world voice threats, prevention of attacks such as telephony denial of service, toll fraud, phone based social engineering attacks, and call harassment, and overall UC network programmability through complex event policy enforcement, remains a primary concern for IT professionals. Most management offerings today cannot pinpoint the exact problem that has occurred, nor can they deliver a real-time monitoring and security solution to provide the consistent, reliable correlation of information across a multi-vendor environment that enterprises have been seeking. “The integration of our business rules-based policy engine for collaboration security and management combined with Nectar–s UC monitoring and diagnostics with SDN enables a new realm of dynamic security, diagnostics and mitigation all through one single integrated solution not available before,” commented Mark Collier, CTO at SecureLogix.
