The Challenge

Modern Applications are Powered by External Services You Can't Control

A complete lack of visibility and governance results in vendor issues causing major outages, countless hours spent troubleshooting, sensitive data going undetected, and undocumented bandwidth consumption driving up costs.

The Qpoint Solution

Tap Into Your External Traffic with eBPF

Qpoint uses eBPF to transparently tap into the flow of traffic between your apps and their external dependencies for unmatched visibility and control without data leaving your environment.

Catalog vendors, detect errors, log requests, monitor for sensitive data, and track API token usage to ensure reliability, maintain productivity, and preserve data governance for your highly connected production applications.

Endpoint Discovery

Create a catalog of the sources and destinations for all egress traffic to gain a clear picture of which external services and APIs your applications are interacting with.

Monitoring & Error Detection

Continuously monitor egress traffic and detect errors in real time to proactively address issues before they impact your users.

Audit Logging

Maintain detailed records for all outbound requests and responses to ensure compliance and data governance.

Alerting

Get alerts on errors and anomalous behavior to enable rapid response if the root cause lies with an external dependency.

Sensitive Data Mapping

Monitor for sensitive data in traffic flows and generate exfiltration maps to identify and prevent unauthorized exposure and maintain compliance.

API Token Visibility

Monitor the set of API tokens being used for external requests to detect misuse and safeguard against unauthorized activity.

One platform to address any integration-related pain point

Qpoint Use Cases

External Service Reliability

Challenge: System downtime and reliability issues often stem from undetected problems with external service traffic, leading to disrupted operations and reliability impacts.

Solution: Continuously monitor outbound traffic, alert on errors, and log requests and responses to ensure operational resilience, reduce downtime, and improve troubleshooting efficiency.

Rate Limit Detection

Challenge: Operators lack real-time monitoring to detect when third-party API usage approaches prescribed limits, risking throttling and potential disruptions to production systems.

Solution: Proactively monitor and alert when external API usage nears capacity limits, safeguarding against throttling and ensuring smooth operation of production systems.

Forensic Analysis & Debugging

Challenge: Developers lack the detailed visibility needed to conduct thorough forensic analysis and debugging of production issues.

Solution: Enable developers to swiftly pinpoint and resolve production issues by making precise, actionable request level data available, boosting efficiency and system reliability.

Cloud Billing Attribution

Challenge: Organizations struggle to accurately attribute cloud costs to specific teams or projects due to a lack of visibility into egress traffic.

Solution: Leverage Qpoint's detailed tracking of egress data flows to accurately attribute cloud costs, optimize cloud spend, and reduce waste.

Vendor Audit Trail

Challenge: Lack of a clear audit trail of vendor API interactions can make it difficult to prove that an SLA violations has occurred.

Solution: Leverage Qpoint's per-endpoint audit logs to track vendor API interactions and provide clear evidence of SLA violations to ensure vendor accountability.

Zero Trust Security

Challenge: Operational security models often allow any application to access any external system which increases the risk of unauthorized sensitive data exfiltration.

Solution: Limit access to external endpoints to only those applications that have been explicitly authorized using identity-based policy.
