Network Security
Сенсор сбора потоков
A network device or software agent that passively gathers, aggregates, and forwards network flow records (such as NetFlow, IPFIX, or sFlow) for traffic analysis, anomaly detection, or forensic investigation. See NIST SP 800-137 and IETF RFC 3954.
Quick answer: A network device or software agent that passively gathers, aggregates, and forwards network flow records (such as NetFlow, IPFIX, or sFlow) for traffic analysis, anomaly detection, or forensic investigation. See NIST SP 800-137 and IETF RFC 3954.

Why it matters
Сенсор сбора потоков matters because it supports clear communication in Network Security contexts for SOC Analysts, Security Engineers, and Incident Responders. It also connects to aviation training and exam language such as CISSP, CompTIA Security+, and CEH.
