Protect Change Management from Configuration Drift and Human Error • Confidently make configuration changes at scale and let NetBrain maintain network fidelity by checking the change itself and the impact on the rest of the network (e.g., Intents enforce the firewall rules, their dependencies and pathing between environments). • See end-to-end paths and set Intents to see where rules might be causing issues with applications (i.e., firewall rules). • Accelerate patching tasks and reduce the risk of human error and unforeseen impacts to services delivered by the network. 3. Gain Confidence with Security and Compliance Enforcement • Maintain continuous security policy and zone enforcement by validating network intents against baseline security policies automatically. • Locate network devices quickly in case of alert from a SIEM tool about a potential breach so you can harden the network and prevent further infiltration. 4. Contextualize Application Path Performance • Bring back control to the networking team with the added layer of contextual performance information right on any live network map. • Quickly determine if the network is the cause of application performance problems.
