1. Visibility, ability to provide deep insight into all of the network traffic.
2. Analytic engines, the ability to use multiple detection engines like ML-based, Zeek, Suricata, etc.
3. Scale, ability to address policy requirements for N/S and E/W deployments on-prem or in the cloud along with scaleable retention (weeks/months) for PCAP or network metadata.
4. Any and all NTA solutions need to be able to ingest threat intel and be able to integrate easily into SOAR and SIEM solutions.
Network Traffic Analysis (NTA) involves monitoring and evaluating data packets traversing a network to identify patterns and detect anomalies that may indicate security incidents. It helps in maintaining network health and preventing unauthorized access. NTA is crucial for cybersecurity professionals.Network Traffic Analysis employs advanced machine learning and deep packet inspection techniques to provide insights into network behavior. By analyzing the data flow, organizations can detect...

5. It needs to fit with budget!
Thanks @Nicholas Arraje this is really useful.
