Advanced threats move fast. Corelight moves faster.<\/strong><\/h2>

Corelight is the leader in Open Network Detection and Response (NDR). It is engineered to provide the ground truth for the Security Operations Center (SOC) teams. While traditional tools rely on fragmented logs, Corelight interrogates the network in real-time, transforming raw and messy packets into a forensic grade record of network activity across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments. This creates a single source of truth that attackers cannot alter. What sets Corelight apart is its open-source heritage that is fused with enterprise-grade performance. By leveraging a passive, out-of-band approach, Corelight captures a copy of your raw traffic without ever impacting your network performance. By fusing signature-based Intrusion Detection System (IDS) alerts from Suricata\u00ae with Zeek’s rich network evidence, Corelight delivers an unmatched NDR experience. It eliminates manual log stitching through its Unique ID (UID) system. This dramatically reduces alert noise and lowers the Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) to a speed that matches the urgency of today’s landscape.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

What is Open NDR?<\/span><\/h2>

Network detection and response (NDR) is a cybersecurity technology that continuously monitors network traffic from physical and cloud-based environments. NDR solutions include extended visibility, enriched network data, detection, threat hunting, forensics, and response capabilities. These solutions are often delivered as a combination of physical, virtual, software, and cloud appliances. It enables security teams to more quickly detect adversary activity and respond to security incidents.<\/p>

The “Open” approach to NDR builds on this foundation using transparent, community-driven technologies like Zeek\u00ae, Suricata\u00ae, and Sigma, enhanced with artificial intelligence. Unlike proprietary NDR platforms, Open NDR gives teams complete control over their data and detections, allowing them to customize threat detection for their unique environment, filter alerts without vendor constraints, and integrate seamlessly with existing tools like CrowdStrike Falcon or Splunk. Because data remains fully portable and standards-based, organizations avoid vendor lock-in while enabling faster threat hunting and forensics.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
