Network Audit Tools for Network Compliance

Track config changes and demonstrate compliance more easily with network audit tools

Monitor devices and perform network auditing from a single view

Get all the change management insights you need in one place. For large, dynamic, or complex networks, adhering to monitoring and auditing policies can be a challenge. SolarWinds® Network Configuration Manager (NCM) can help you automate and centralize the way you track and review devices across your network, including multi-vendor devices. You can also monitor configurations, changes, and backups from a unified dashboard.

Track unauthorized and erroneous configuration changes with network audit software

With the network audit tools in NCM, you can more easily identify unauthorized or inconsistent configuration changes, noncompliant devices, failed backups, and more, thanks to configuration baselines and automated alerts. Using NCM audits, you can get real-time and historical insight into whether user activity has led to unauthorized changes or vulnerable configuration gaps. Simply establish baselines to define your approved configurations and let the solution’s real-time change detection notify you as soon as a change occurs with any of your device configurations.
 

Automate inventory reporting and policy violation audits

The SolarWinds NCM network audit software delivers the network device audit tools you need to help manage and check for compliance. The integrated inventory reports in NCM are built to gather key information about automatically added devices, including serial numbers, port details, IP addresses, vendors, end-of-life dates, and more.

All you have to do to collect and review inventory data is run an inventory scan manually when you want updates or schedule a regular inventory scan so your information is always up-to-date. Doing so can help you with network compliance and auditing.

 

Gain access to audit-ready reports by adopting network compliance software

If your organization is subject to standards like HIPAA, SOX, DISA, FISMA, PCI, or STIG, you must ensure your network devices are always configured well, and you must be able to provide reports for internal stakeholders and external auditors proving your compliance.

NCM is designed to provide a wide range of network compliance software features to help you demonstrate regulatory guidelines, including dozens of predefined reports built right into the network auditing software. The reports fall into categories including NCM Audit, NCM Brocade Inventory, NCM Cisco Inventory, NCM F5 Inventory, NCM Inventory, NCM Node Details, NCM Polling Status, NCM Route Tables Inventory, NCM Security, and NCM Windows Server Inventory.

Help ensure compliance thanks to automated alerts

SolarWinds NCM includes automated alerting features to help ensure you’re always in the loop about device configuration changes in your network. In addition to the network audit software automatically sending default alerts whenever configuration changes occur, NCM also lets you set custom baselines and create alerts based on them. By helping to ensure system administrators are notified of any configuration changes (and empowered to remediate them immediately), NCM makes it easier to ensure all your devices remain compliant.

Do you find yourself asking…
“Prior to using NCM, there was very little standardization, and security was more of an afterthought than a primary focus. With NCM, we have found and brought all of our devices into compliance. As a result, we passed a security audit by an outside auditor who was specifically looking for many things we had already taken care of using NCM.”
