Working with network traffic in the cloud

With cloud services becoming more popular and the increasing move to the cloud by enterprises, maintaining security is crucial. Network Detection and Response (NDR) cloud-centric solutions have surfaced that allow capturing and analyzing network traffic. In the past, performing packet capturing on cloud networks was a challenge, but today, that is not the case. Many cloud providers provide native capabilities for packet mirroring, which allows you to perform packet capturing without the need for additional software. This is all made possible with the use of Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks. A VPC is a logical separation of a cloud environment to support private cloud computing. The aim of a VPC is to allow organizations that make use of the cloud to have more granular control over the virtual networks while still reaping the benefits of public cloud resources. Packet mirroring is often configured within VPC networks.
