Clear NDR - Enterprise review
Deep network detection and investigation with evidence, threat intelligence, and integrations.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Clear NDR - Enterprise is a Suricata-based network detection and response system for enterprise security teams. It combines network probes with a central server to inspect traffic, detect threats, manage network evidence, and support threat hunting and incident investigation. The platform is designed for cloud, on-premise, and hybrid environments, with deployment options that include cloud, virtual machines, appliances, and air-gapped environments. Network detection and investigation teams are the clearest fit, particularly where centralized visibility and evidence collection matter.
Pricing is structured around annual licensing based on monitored connection speed, with public pricing requiring contact with sales. Tier 2 includes rules-based detection, threat-intelligence reputation-list detection, complete network capture, guided threat hunting, and a REST API. Tier 3 adds Declarations of Compromise, machine-learning beacon detection, asset insights, webhook notifications, and a Proofpoint ETPro subscription, while retaining all Tier 2 capabilities. A 30-day trial is available, but there is no free plan, so teams evaluating long-term cost will need to size the deployment around network throughput and required capabilities.
The platform’s strongest area is investigation depth. It supports deep packet inspection, signature and indicator-of-compromise detection, machine-learning and algorithmic analysis, consolidated event storage, and evidence such as flows, protocol transactions, extracted files, and PCAPs. Integrations include CrowdStrike, Splunk, SentinelOne, Microsoft, Forescout, SOAR systems, ticketing systems, Slack, and Mattermost, with REST API and webhook workflows for automation. Clear NDR - Enterprise suits teams that need network-centric detection and investigation across varied environments. Organizations primarily seeking documented inline blocking may prefer a product with that capability as its central focus.
