BBT.live Launches BeTNA: Next-Gen ZTNA with Advanced Traffic Detection for Enhanced Security


NEW YORK, April 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- BBT.live, a leading provider of BeBroadband™ as a Service  Platform – an SD-WAN/SASE/ZTNA/SSE comprehensive Platform, proudly announces the launch of BeBroadband™ Trust Network Access (BeTNA), a revolutionary Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solution designed to elevate security standards to unprecedented heights. This cutting-edge offering stems from a strategic collaboration with ipoque, a Rohde & Schwarz company, a global leader in advanced deep packet inspection software for networking and cybersecurity solution providers.

Addressing the ZTNA Visibility Gap

Traditional ZTNA solutions have long grappled with the challenge of insufficient visibility into encrypted traffic, impeding their ability to enforce access controls effectively and identify potential threats. BeTNA tackles this issue head-on by harnessing the power ipoque's Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology. This state-of-the-art solution provides real-time insights into network traffic, empowering BeTNA to:

  • Accurately identify users, devices and applications, even when encrypted protocols like TLS 1.3 and QUIC are employed.
  • Enforce granular access controls based on user identity, device type, application and other relevant factors.
  • Detect and prevent security threats by identifying malicious traffic patterns and anomalies, thereby fortifying defenses against cyberattacks and data breaches.

Survey Highlights Importance of DPI for ZTNA

A recent survey conducted by ipoque in collaboration with The Fast Mode, a leading telecoms/IT publication, underscored the critical role of DPI in the realm of ZTNA:

  • 90.7% of ZTNA vendors encounter challenges related to traffic visibility.
  • Over 92% of ZTNA vendors anticipate a surge in security vulnerabilities stemming from inadequate visibility.
  • 83.3% of ZTNA vendors currently utilize or plan to leverage DPI for ZTNA.

BBT.live EVP Embraces Collaboration with ipoque

Erez Zelikovitz EVP Chief Product and Revenue Officer of BBT.live, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration with ipoque, stating, "We are thrilled to introduce BeTNA and our partnership with ipoque. Ipoque's DPI solutions, renowned for their accuracy and reliability, enable us to deliver a ZTNA solution that sets new benchmarks in security and visibility."

He added, "The ipoque OEM DPI engines R&S®PACE 2 and R&S®vPACE



Assessing Network and Traffic Intelligence

Assessing network and traffic intelligence that underpin the implementation of ZTNA, the report aims to uncover visibility challenges and the role of DPI in fortifying zero-trust executions. ZTNA merges access control and security in a cloud-based model, leveraging principles such as microsegmentation and least privilege access (LPA).


"Regardless of whether it is cloud, hybrid or on-premises ZTNA, BeTNA solution providers require advanced traffic detection techniques that can single out resources, devices, users, security status and irregularities," said Sebastian Mueller, Head of Sales at ipoque. "This is critical in executing fine-grained policies which are customized to different risk profiles and data sensitivity."

Without sufficient visibility, ZTNA vendors have to fall back on blanket access rules and generic security measures, which lead to increased security vulnerabilities, network abuse and user experience issues, according to the report. BeTNA shows that.

"Our DPI suite of solutions, which are optimized for both standard and cloud computing environments, are powered by AI and ML-based capabilities and weekly-updated libraries," said Mueller. "Combining these with metadata extraction allows us to address information that ZTNA vendors deem most critical, namely threats, anomalies and application awareness."

The DPI technology by ipoque boasts high throughput, linear scalability and improved memory efficiency to support any number of user sessions. It also features extended capabilities such as first packet classification, custom DPI signatures, tethering detection and an IPFIX exporter that converts DPI data into Netflow/IPFIX flow records for seamless integration into SIEM solutions, which is implemented on both BBT.live BeTNA  (for WFA) and Edge Device (for branches connectivity).

Benefits of BeTNA

  • Enhanced security: BeTNA offers unparalleled visibility into network traffic, enabling organizations to detect and mitigate security threats more effectively.
  • Improved access control: BeTNA facilitates granular access controls based on user identity, device type, application and other relevant parameters.
  • Simplified ZTNA implementation: BeTNA's intuitive interface and pre-configured policies streamline the deployment and management of ZTNA, ensuring seamless integration into existing infrastructures.
