PacketViper deploys as a transparent L2 bridge — no IP address, no routing changes, no architecture redesign. It sits in the traffic path without announcing its presence. To a scanner, it doesn't exist.
PacketViper operates at Layer 2 with no IP address of its own. It's invisible to network scanners — an attacker cannot identify it, enumerate it, target it, or bypass it by routing around a visible device. You don't redesign your network. You tap it in. That's it.
L2 bridge vs. traditional inline securityHardware bypass is built in. If the device loses power or encounters a critical fault, the bypass engages and traffic passes through as if the device isn't there. Your network stays up. Your 2 AM phone call is about something else.
Platform architecture and HA designSensors deploy at four positions: north-south (external perimeter), inside the perimeter, east-west (lateral), and at OT/edge sites. Dual-sensor correlation between inside and outside positions proves firewall gaps — traffic that shouldn't be leaving, isn't being blocked. Evidence, not theory.
Sensor architecture overviewPacketViper processes traffic at wire speed. The ClickHouse backend delivers 10x performance improvement over legacy database architectures. Every packet that passes through gets inspected and acted on in the same processing cycle — before it exits the device.
Performance and analytics architectureCrowdStrike, Cisco, Fortinet, Dragos, Claroty, Tenable, Nozomi — PacketViper integrates with 52+ security and network management platforms. SNMP, syslog, API — it fits into your existing monitoring and management stack without replacing it.
Full integration listNo agents. No software installs. No endpoint management overhead. PacketViper's enforcement lives entirely in the network layer — the enforcement device in the traffic path, not software on the machines behind it. Your endpoints are completely unmodified.
Agentless enforcement overview"Because PacketViper operates at Layer 2 with no IP address, it is invisible to network scanners. An attacker cannot identify it, cannot enumerate it, cannot target it, and cannot bypass it by routing around a visible IP-addressed device. It exists in the traffic path without announcing its presence."
