Offload SSL Decryption to Improve Security Tool Performance
With the prevalence of SSL/TLS encryption, security appliances often suffer from significant performance degradation—sometimes dropping by 80%—due to the heavy CPU burden of decryption. Keysight software resolves this bottleneck through an intelligent inline network visibility architecture. By utilizing specialized network packet brokers to offload intensive SSL/TLS decryption tasks, Keysight ensures that traffic is decrypted efficiently at the edge. The system then forwards the clean, unencrypted data to your security tools for analysis. This approach optimizes the performance of your entire security stack, allowing appliances to operate at peak capacity while maintaining comprehensive threat protection without compromising speed or operational throughput.
