Network Security Monitoring Module
Black Cell’s Network Security Monitoring (BC NSM) solution provides deep visibility into your network to detect sophisticated threats that get past traditional perimeter defenses. By passively monitoring both internal and external network traffic, BC NSM spots suspicious activity and anomalies in real time, without disrupting network operations.
Equip yourself with the tools to spot threats before they escalate. Discover how BC NSM can provide the deep visibility you need to detect advanced threats and policy violations that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Overview
How Black Cell NSM Secures Your Network
The Network Security Monitoring solution analyzes network flows in real time, using a multi-layered approach to detect threats. Deep packet inspection (DPI) scrutinizes packet contents, while signature-based detection identifies known malicious patterns with continuously updated threat intelligence. By using behavioral analysis and rich metadata extraction, the system can spot anomalies and provide a complete picture of every network communication.
Identify Suspicious Activity
Discover unusual data transfers, protocol anomalies, Command and Control (C2) communication, connections to known malicious infrastructure, lateral movement, and data exfiltration. Detect malicious payloads, exploit attempts and other indicators of compromise (IoCs).
Uncover Policy Violations
Monitor for unauthorized protocol usage, remote access, connections to prohibited services, or communication patterns that violate your internal security policies.
Provide Context for Investigations
Generate detailed network-level evidence that significantly accelerates incident response and forensic analysis, helping you understand the “what, when, and how” of an attack.
The Black Cell NSM Advantage
Choosing Black Cell for Network Security Monitoring means partnering with experts dedicated to providing effective, relevant threat detection.
Deep Network Visibility
Gain unparalleled insight into traffic flows, application usage, and asset communications across your environment.
Operational Technology (OT) Visibility
Extend network monitoring capabilities into your industrial control system (ICS) environments, providing crucial visibility into OT-specific protocols and potential threats without disrupting critical operations.
Proactive Threat Detection
Identify malicious activity, intrusion attempts, malware communications, and anomalies often missed by endpoint or perimeter defenses alone, leveraging both signature and behavioral techniques.
Constantly Updated Signatures
Our detection capabilities are powered by continuously updated signatures based on up-to-date and high-quality threat intelligence data, ensuring you are protected against the latest evolving threats.
Detection Tailored to Your Environment
Detections and signature sets are not one-size-fits-all. We work closely with you to understand your operational context, critical assets, network architecture, and risk profile. Our process involves fine-tuning network monitoring and creating tailored signatures and detections that maximize accuracy and minimize noise for your environment.
Machine Learning Anomaly Detection with ESM
Integration with Black Cell’s ESM platform allows you to leverage powerful machine learning algorithms. This combination automatically flags statistically significant deviations, helping to uncover novel, zero-day, and insider threats.
Scalable & Adaptable
Designed for scalability and adaptability, our NSM solution handles organizational growth and network changes, enabling effective monitoring across distributed environments, including remote locations and multiple sites.
Enhanced Incident Response
By providing detailed network context, our solution empowers security teams to quickly understand, scope, and remediate security incidents. The result is a significant reduction in attacker dwell time and overall impact.

All Modules
ESM Core
The BC-ESM Core module is a backbone of the entire detection ecosystem. Under the hood we adopted Elasticsearch as a log manipulation platform, which capabilities predestinate it to serve as a SIEM (Security Event and Information). With advanced features, BC-ESM Core enables organizations to maintain a secure and resilient environment while leveraging powerful search and analytics capabilitie
NSM for IT and OT
ESM Network Security Monitoring analyzes mirrored IT and OT network traffic using both signature-based detection and deep packet inspection. The platform features a built-in, configurable incident handling module to streamline security event response. By connecting to a wide range of log sources and offering robust inventory capabilities, it delivers enhanced visibility and improves asset management.
Endpoint Security
ESM’s Endpoint security is an agent-based solution for Windows, *nix and Mac designed for detection and response capabilities, ensuring comprehensive protection against a wide array of threats. It effectively counters sophisticated cyber-attacks, able to block unknown and polymorphic malware and ransomware, and stops advanced threats using host-based behavior analytics. With high-fidelity alerting, it minimizes noise, allowing your team to focus on genuine threats.
Anomaly detections
ESM incorporates machine learning features to automate the detection of anomalies and unusual patterns in log data. This capability is crucial for identifying potential security threats and operational issues before they escalate.
Threat Intelligence by Black Cell Labs
Detection as Code
Detection-as-Code is a foundational principle of Black Cell ESM. It treats detection rules not as static configurations, but as living code—developed, tested, and deployed using modern software engineering practices.
IoC
BC-IoC is the threat intelligence module of the Black Cell ESM platform, delivering real-time, high-fidelity Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) to boost detection, prevention, and threat hunting across your security ecosystem.
NSM
While BC-NSM already delivers powerful capabilities like network traffic analysis, metadata extraction, and anomaly detection, the true strength of the platform is unlocked when paired with our curated Threat Intelligence Feed.
