SANTA ROSA, Calif. - Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a $26.3 billion market cap technology leader with a robust 62.57% gross profit margin, has introduced AI Insight Brokers, an upgrade to its Vision Network Packet Brokers (NPBs) aimed at bolstering AI-driven cybersecurity activities such as threat detection, incident response, and forensics. The new AI Insight Brokers are engineered to support AI software, enhancing security analysis and threat detection capabilities. This development is set to assist enterprise IT and security operations teams in accelerating threat identification and maintaining operational scale and compliance. According to InvestingPro analysis, Keysight maintains a strong financial health profile with particularly high scores in profitability and cash flow management.
The AI Insight Brokers are capable of running AI security and performance monitoring software, offering improved memory and storage. Keysight’s own AI Stack, which can be integrated into the system, provides anomaly detection, dynamic application signature identification, and predictive threat analysis. By utilizing AI at an earlier stage in the monitoring process, the solution promises more robust protection and the ability to preemptively address performance issues. With annual revenue of $5.02 billion and a strong current ratio of 2.95, Keysight demonstrates the financial stability to support continued innovation in this space.
The key advantages of the updated Network Packet Broker include accelerated analytics through real-time enrichment of network and cloud data, cost savings by reducing cloud service expenses via AI-driven data analysis, and easy scalability with on-demand activation of the Keysight AI Stack.
Recep Ozdag, Vice President and General Manager of Network Visibility Solutions at Keysight, commented on the release, emphasizing the importance of AI in advancing threat detection and response. He noted that the AI Insight Brokers extend beyond traditional packet brokers by processing data at the network edge, which not only reduces the load on security tools but also significantly expedites analysis.
