Since 2011, Garland Technology has been engineering and manufacturing simple, reliable, and affordable Network TAPs and Network Packet Brokers.
Comprehensive Network Visibility and Security Solutions
Garland Technology offers a complete range of Network TAPs, from 10/100M Copper to 100G Fibre, as well as specialised solutions such as EdgeSafe™ Bypass TAPs, EdgeLens® Inline Security Packet Brokers, and packet brokers tailored for industrial and military applications.
As a global leader in IT and OT network solutions since 2011, Garland Technology has been providing enterprise, critical infrastructure, and government agencies with simple, reliable, and affordable network visibility solutions.
At the heart of Garland’s approach is the belief that securing and monitoring your network is paramount. The TAP-to-Tool philosophy ensures their solutions are designed to enhance the tools you already use, offering scalability and flexibility to deploy the exact resources needed to prioritise performance and cybersecurity.
Garland’s packet brokers streamline data for specific monitoring, performance, and security tools, simplifying rule management with an intuitive web interface.
These solutions allow tools to operate at peak efficiency by delivering data in the right format and at manageable throughputs. For inline deployments, approved data is seamlessly reintegrated into the network, enabling improved monitoring, enhanced network analysis, and reduced application performance bottlenecks.
Garland’s Network TAPs provide reliable, unobtrusive access to network traffic, optimising monitoring, security, and storage by duplicating network traffic in both directions. Available in various configurations, Garland’s TAPs ensure complete visibility while maintaining the integrity and security of network operations:
Ethernet TAPs
Duplication of full-duplex 10M/100M/1G/10G traffic at wire speed, enabling monitoring of all 7 OSI layers, including packets of all sizes and types, as well as low-level errors.
Fibre TAPs
Designed for 1G, 10G, 40G, and 100G fibre networks, these TAPs allow flawless inline monitoring, isolating monitoring devices for maximum security.
Regeneration TAPs
Ideal for monitoring single network segments with multiple tools, copying traffic from one network segment and distributing it to several monitoring tools simultaneously.
Replication TAPs
Similar to regeneration TAPs, replication TAPs send copies of network traffic to multiple monitoring tools at the same time.
Bypass TAPs
Designed to support active inline security tools while eliminating the “single point of failure” issue common in other systems.
Data Diode TAPs
These specialised TAPs enforce one-way data flow, protecting critical systems like Operational Technology (OT) from inbound cyberattacks while ensuring traffic is directed to the appropriate monitoring tools.
Garland’s Network TAPs create an exact copy of traffic flows continuously, 24/7/365, without dropping packets, introducing delays, or altering data. Designed to be either passive or failsafe, these TAPs ensure uninterrupted network traffic even during power loss or when monitoring tools are disconnected.
