the ClearSight Analyzer (CSA) and Network Time Machine (NTM) product lines. The
company's protocol analysis, deep packet inspection and forensic stream-to-disk

superior visibility and insight into networking infrastructures they can't get
anywhere else, is a natural fit with ClearSight," said Sam Li, Technology
Founder, ClearSight. "Our products have defined ease-of-use in protocol analysis
and application analysis visualization. We provide tools that are easy enough
for less experienced technicians yet deep enough for complex root cause analysis
by senior engineers," he concluded.
