CloudLens Software Suite

“Cloud-native visibility for hybrid and multi-cloud environments — without blind spots.”

What is CloudLens?

CloudLens is Keysight’s cloud-native visibility solution, designed to provide secure, agent-based packet access across public, private, and hybrid cloud environments.

Unlike traditional TAPs and SPANs, CloudLens operates inside the cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, VMware, OpenStack) to deliver real-time visibility into east-west and north-south traffic, eliminating blind spots and ensuring that security and monitoring tools get the right data.

It is part of Keysight’s Visibility Platform, tightly integrated with Vision Series Network Packet Brokers to unify observability from datacenter to cloud.

Key Features

• Cloud-Native Architecture
  • Agent-based packet capture directly in VMs, containers, and cloud workloads.
  • Scales elastically with cloud deployments.
• Multi-Cloud & Hybrid Support
  • Native integration with AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Kubernetes, VMware, OpenStack.
  • Provides consistent visibility across public and private clouds.
• Traffic Intelligence
  • Capture, filter, and forward packets or flows to monitoring and security tools.
  • Ensure compliance with policies by delivering only the required traffic.
• Secure & Compliant Design
  • End-to-end encryption of captured traffic.
  • Role-based access and multi-tenant support.
• Integration with Keysight Ecosystem
  • Feeds traffic into Vision NPBs for advanced filtering, deduplication, and enrichment.
  • Unified with Keysight’s Visibility Fabric for end-to-end observability.

Benefits for the Client

• Eliminate cloud blind spots: access east-west traffic inside VMs and containers.
• Hybrid visibility: consistent observability from datacenter to cloud.
• Optimize security tools: filter and forward only relevant traffic.
• Security-first design: encrypted traffic capture and secure role-based access.
• Cloud-agnostic: works across AWS, Azure, GCP, and private cloud platforms.

Why CloudLens is Different ?

• Truly cloud-native: designed for cloud and container environments, not retrofitted.
• Agent-based flexibility: deploy in minutes across workloads.
• Multi-cloud support: visibility fabric spanning all major clouds.
• Part of Keysight’s Deep Observability: integrates with Vision Packet Brokers and visibility stacks.
• Trusted in regulated industries: compliance-ready for finance, healthcare, and government.

 Typical Use Cases

• Extend SOC/NDR visibility into cloud workloads (east-west + north-south).
• Provide compliance evidence for regulated industries operating in cloud.
• Feed cloud traffic into SIEM, IDS/IPS, and APM platforms.
• Enable hybrid observability with unified packet brokering across datacenter and cloud.
• Monitor microservices and containers in Kubernetes or OpenShift.
