What information does runZero traffic sampling collect?

Modified on Mon, Nov 27, 2023 at 11:51 AM

Unlike traditional passive network monitoring, runZero traffic sampling does not collect a full dump of all network traffic. Instead, it looks for only the network data needed for asset discovery and fingerprinting.

When relevant network data is seen, the runZero Explorer processes a sample of the traffic, normalizes it into asset records as if it had been collected by a conventional scan, scrubs any sensitive fields, and then uploads the records to the runZero Console.
