NETSCOUT SYSTEMS Launches Adaptive Threat Analytics
NETSCOUT SYSTEMS, INC. (NASDAQ: NTCT), a provider of observability, AIOps, cybersecurity, and DDoS attack protection solutions, has announced the launch of Adaptive Threat Analytics. This new enhancement to its Omnis Cyber Intelligence Network Detection and Response (NDR) solution is designed to accelerate incident response and reduce organizational risk.
Adaptive Threat Analytics enables security teams to detect, investigate, and respond to cyber threats more rapidly and effectively.
The company revealed that cybersecurity professionals often struggle with alert fatigue, fragmented tools, and AI-enabled threats. These factors demand quicker, more accurate response mechanisms.
According to McKinsey & Company, the average time to contain a cyber incident remains at 73 days, despite improvements in detection speed.
NETSCOUT reported that Adaptive Threat Analytics supports the 'Analyze' phase in the detection-to-response workflow. It leverages continuous packet capture, local storage of metadata and packets, built-in packet decodes, and a flexible querying language. This helps SOC teams gain faster insights and actionable intelligence.
John Grady, Principal Analyst for Cybersecurity at Enterprise Strategy Group, stated that growing complexity in network environments makes real-time, packet-based visibility essential.
Key features include: Unified north-south and east-west traffic visibility
AI-driven incident correlation and holistic attack chain views
Seamless integration with SIEM, SOAR, and XDR platforms
Jerry Mancini, Senior Director, Office of the CTO at NETSCOUT, emphasized that the new solution equips security teams with detailed, contextual data before, during, and after an event. This, he said, helps organizations reduce the mean time to resolution.

Shares mixed, euro dips as tariff costs counted
LONDON - Wall Street futures pointed to a buoyant open on Tuesday ahead of earnings reports from a number of companies and the Federal Reserve's policy meeting that starts later in the day. S&P 500 futures ticked up 0.3%, while Nasdaq futures added 0.5%, riding on hopes for upbeat results from mega caps this week that include Apple, Meta Platforms , Microsoft and Amazon. The dollar index climbed 0.4% to 98.951 after the rush out of short dollar positions lifted it 1% overnight, while it eased a one-week high on the yen to stand at 148.69 . Yields on 10-year Treasuries inched up 3 basis points to 4.392%, having crept higher on Monday as markets braced for another steady decision on interest rates from the Federal Reserve. Futures imply a 97% chance the Fed would keep rates at 4.25%-4.5% at its meeting on Wednesday and reiterate concerns that tariffs will push inflation higher in the short term. Analysts also assume one, or maybe two, Fed officials will dissent in favour of a cut and supporting wagers for a move in September. The odds could change depending on a slew of U.S. data this week including gross domestic product for the second quarter, where growth is expected to rebound to an annualised 2.4%, after a 0.5% contraction in the first quarter. Figures on job openings are due later on Tuesday that will help refine forecasts for the crucial payrolls report on Friday. "The equity rally has narrowed, valuations are stretched and market internals are flashing caution, and consumer data -particularly around housing and retail - show signs of fatigue," said Bruno Schneller, managing director at Erlen Capital Management, Zurich. "This is the start of a 'show-me' phase - for both policymakers and corporates. Markets will demand confirmation: from earnings, from macro, and from the Fed," Erlen added. Canada's central bank also convenes on Wednesday and again is widely expected to hold rates at 2.75%. TARIFF ECHOES U.S. equity moves follow record closing highs for the S&P and the Nasdaq on Monday in volatile trading after the U.S. struck a trade agreement with the European Union, while the Dow remained just about 200 points short of an all-time high. The U.S.-EU trade deal, announced on Sunday, halved threatened 30% U.S. tariffs on EU imports to 15% and bolstered expectations that more such agreements will follow ahead of President Donald Trump's looming August 1 deadline. Trump also flagged a "world tariff" rate of 15%-20% on all trading partners that were not negotiating a deal, among the highest rates since the Great Depression of the 1930s. "While the worst-case scenario was averted, the implied EU tariff increase from 1% in January is a significant tax increase on EU exports," wrote economists from JPMorgan in a note. "This is a very big shock that unwinds a century of U.S. leadership in global free trade," they said. "While we no longer see a U.S. recession as our baseline from this shock, the risk is still elevated at 40%." The euro fell 0.4% to $1.1543, after retreating 1.3% overnight in its largest drop since mid-May. European shares recovered after Monday's sell-off. Europe's broad STOXX 600 was up 0.6%, helped by some positive reactions to quarterly earnings. French and German stock indexes rose over 1%. Novo Nordisk, one of Europe's biggest companies by market cap, named Maziar Mike Doustdar as its new chief executive after the abrupt removal of its previous CEO in May. Shares in the company were down as much as 29.8% by 1149 GMT, wiping off over 80 billion euros in market cap at one point. An air of caution saw MSCI's broadest index of world shares tick down about 0.2% after China stocks ended higher on Tuesday as a new round of Sino-U.S. trade talks continued, while Japan's Nikkei lost 0.8%. A further risk to world growth came from a sudden spike in oil prices after Trump threatened a new deadline of 10 or 12 days for Russia to make progress toward ending the war in Ukraine or face tougher sanctions on oil exports. In commodity markets, prices for copper and iron ore were under pressure while gold was roughly flat at $3,316 an ounce . Brent was about 20 cents higher at $70.22 a barrel, while U.S. crude up 17 cents to $66.90. (Editing by Sam Holmes, Bernadette Baum and Mark Heinrich)

End-User Spending On IT Security To Reach $213 Billion In 2025: Reports Gartner
Worldwide end-user spending on information security is projected to reach $213 billion in 2025, up from $193 billion in 2024, according to Gartner, Inc. Spending is estimated to increase 12.5% in 2026 to total $240 billion. 'Established security spending will continue as normal, but some organizations are being more cautious with any new security spending in this highly uncertain and challenging climate,' said Ruggero Contu, Sr Director Analyst at Gartner. 'However, higher defense budgets, rising threats, increasing regulatory pressure and better cybersecurity awareness – especially among small and medium-sized businesses – will keep cybersecurity spending strong in the medium to long term.' Security software is the fastest growing segment because more companies continue to move from on-premises to cloud-based systems, which brings new security risks (see Figure 1). Cloud security posture management and cloud access security brokers are the main drivers in this segment. In the forecast period, rising threats and the expanding use of AI and generative AI (GenAI) — by both internal users of AI and attackers — will remain key growth drivers. Figure 1: Gartner Data Snapshot: Information Security End-User Spending by Subsegment, Worldwide, 2024-2026 (Millions of U.S. Dollars) Market 2024 2025 2026 Network Security 21,317 23,273 25,825 Security Services 77,130 83,812 92,780 Security Software 94,960 105,940 121,154 Total 193,408 213,025 239,759 Source: Gartner
