Optimizing Network Security through Inline Sandbox Deployment: A Practical Approach with Trellix

Tahir Bashir

Abstract: This paper examines the deployment of the Trellix sandbox in inline mode to enhance network security within critical infrastructure environments. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the sandbox?s real time threat detection and mitigation capabilities while ensuring minimal impact on network performance. Performance metrics, including latency, false positive rates, and detection accuracy, were collected during both normal and high traffic scenarios. The results demonstrate a significant improvement in threat detection with minimal latency, underscoring the effectiveness of inline sandbox deployment for organizations managing sensitive and critical data.
