The Obstacles We Were Up Against
The backbone was a blind spot
Agencies could monitor endpoints but had no line of sight into the undersea and backbone links carrying the bulk of national traffic. The infrastructure most critical to security was also the least visible — its routes, volumes, and the activity crossing it sat outside the monitoring picture entirely. Threats to the backbone could form and move without ever appearing in the systems meant to detect them.
Cross-border traffic went untracked
Hidden routes stayed concealed

How We Address This
Backbone Traffic Monitoring
PertSol's fibre and mass IP monitoring brings visibility to undersea and backbone links, surfacing the traffic crossing the infrastructure that national security depends on.
Backbone Monitoring
Undersea and backbone links are monitored at scale.
Traffic Analysis
Flows across the backbone are analysed for activity
High-Capacity Handling
Large-volume traffic is processed for monitoring.
Cross-Border Flow Analysis
Inbound and outbound traffic is analysed to surface the abnormal volumes and patterns that signal coordinated activity, giving agencies early visibility into cross-border flows.
Flow Analysis
Inbound and outbound traffic is analysed for patterns
Volume Anomaly Detection
Unusual traffic volumes are flagged for review.
Destination Analysis
Destination IP and port data is examined.
Route & Threat Mapping
Traffic routes across the backbone are mapped to expose concealed and unregistered paths, helping agencies trace where hidden activity enters and leaves the national network.
Route Mapping
Traffic routes across the backbone are mapped.
Encrypted Traffic Discovery
Concealed flows are identified in traffic.
Anomaly Detection
Unusual routing behaviour is flagged for review.
Early Threat Detection
Anomaly detection across high-capacity backbone traffic surfaces the early signs of coordinated activity, giving agencies the lead time to recognise a threat to critical infrastructure before its effects spread.
Anomaly Detection
Abnormal backbone activity is flagged in real time.
Pattern Identification
Coordinated traffic patterns are surfaced for analysts.
Alerting
Defined triggers raise alerts on activity of concern.

Outcomes Beyond Expectations
By bringing fibre and mass IP monitoring to undersea and backbone links, PertSol gives agencies intelligence over the infrastructure their security depends on — mapping routes, detecting abnormal flows, and surfacing threats to the backbone that endpoint monitoring could never reach.
Backbone Brought Into View
Monitoring extends visibility to the undersea and backbone links carrying national traffic.
Cross-Border Flows Surfaced
Flow analysis exposes the abnormal inbound and outbound volumes that signal activity.
Hidden Routes Exposed
Route mapping traces the concealed paths where hidden activity enters the network.
Earlier Threat Detection
Anomaly detection surfaces threats to critical infrastructure before their effects spread.
