Description
Endace, a New Zealand-based company, is a developer of high-speed network monitoring and packet capture technology. Its tools, such as the EndaceProbe Analytics Platform, are designed for network performance monitoring. These tools provide deep visibility into network traffic. Leaked documents have revealed that Endace's technology has been used to support mass surveillance efforts by governments worldwide. The company's tools have reportedly enabled the interception of private emails, online chats, social media activity, and other internet communications. Endace has sold its technology to various countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Israel, among others. Endace was acquired by Emulex Corporation, a U.S.-based company that provides similar network connectivity and monitoring services, in February 2013.
