The Bivio Data Retention System (DRS) is a high-performance data collection and retention system that strengthens cyber security operations for network operators and government agencies. The Bivio Data Retention System provides unmatched coverage and tracking of user applications, networks and devices, and can be quickly deployed in existing wireline and mobile network infrastructures.

Bivio Network Content Control System

The Bivio Network Content Control System (NCCS) is a carrier-grade networking platform that utilizes advanced deep packet inspection (DPI) technology to deliver comprehensive network content control. Purpose-built for high-performance networks, the NCCS includes a rich set of functionality to identify, manage and control network traffic based on content, services, applications, protocols and users. Customers can easily deploy the Bivio NCCS to provide highly programmable traffic enforcement and web content control functionality to immediately protect and optimize their fixed and mobile network communications infrastructure.

NCCS for Parental Control

Bivio’s NCCS for Parental Control is a carrier-grade web filtering and content control solution that allows service providers to offer personalized, per-subscriber parental control services. Deployed as a fully transparent and in-line network device, the NCCS is purpose-built for broadband mobile and wireline networks and far superior to proxy-based systems that are ill-suited for high-capacity environments.

Bivio Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) Application Platform

Bivio’s DPI Application Platform is a third generation networking system built specifically for DPI applications. The Bivio 7000 enables customers to rapidly deploy both passive and inline wire-speed DPI-based applications and services at speeds of 10Gbps and beyond.

Fully programmable in a standard Linux environment, it combines high-speed networking design elements with powerful compute capabilities to offer an unmatched combination of performance and flexibility. Built-in multi-application support enables co-location of multiple DPI-based applications, while its unique scaling properties ensure that wire-speed performance is maintained regardless of policy, network traffic profile, or complexity of application.

Bivio Systems Management Center

The Bivio Systems Management Center (SMC) is a comprehensive centralized management system that simplifies the deployment and maintenance of Bivio platforms and cyber security solutions. Fully-integrated as a hardened, rack mount appliance, the Bivio SMC provides complete Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance and Security (FCAPS) functionality for network administrators to easily manage and maintain any number of Bivio systems using a highly scalable client/server architecture.

Bivio Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) Networking Systems Benefits

Performance: The hallmark of the Bivio’s DPI networking systems is uncompromising performance. Only the Bivio architecture enables any packet handling application to run at wire-speed, at any packet size. Throughput, latency and jitter measurements are at levels traditionally found in specialized hardware designs rather than a flexible general-purpose computing system, making the Bivio solution suitable for the most demanding network environments.

Scalability: In a radical break from traditional general-purpose architectures, the Bivio solutions enable true multi-dimensional scaling utilizing patent-pending scaling technology. By extending the internal backplane between chassis, “stacks” of chassis can be created. Each stack can be configured to scale computational power and/or network processing throughput, while Bivio’s operating system software provides mechanisms for scaling the set of applications the run on the system. This “3D” scaling (computational power, network throughput, and application scalability) enables Bivio to provide wire-speed execution for any packet handling service, at any packet size.

Redundancy & Reliability: Bivio networking systems provide both internal and external redundancy and reliability features. Extensive internal resource parallelization is combined with monitoring and error-recovery in order to ensure the highest levels of reliability and redundancy in both active/active and active/standby modes.

System Management: Bivio systems provide customers with enterprise-level management capabilities, including a full featured command-line interface (CLI), Web-based GUI, SNMP MIBs, out-of-band management ports and serial console ports. Extensibility features provide for rapid integration into existing partner application management systems.
