Name:Network Compliance Auditor
Product URL:http://www.skyboxsecurity.com/?CategoryID=168
Description:The numbers and variety of network devices used by organizations today make it extremely difficult and labor intensive to validate compliance with network access policies. An additional factor is the lack of a centralized and accurate definition for such policies. Network operations teams easily become overwhelmed by both the number and diversity of controls and policies due to complexity and resource dependence.

Skybox’s Network Compliance Auditor automates the process of collecting network and security devices configurations and validating them against network policies in a non-intrusive way. In addition, it discovers policy violations, displays root cause, and calculates compliance status. Compliance calculations may take place multiple times in a single day, or ad hoc as network or security device configurations change. Automated weekly or monthly compliance reports may be delivered to the network administrator’s mailbox.

The Network Compliance Auditor helps organizations quickly discover the root cause of access policy violations while simultaneously reducing the resources required for network policy compliance. The ability to document and maintain network access policies is simplified, while up-to-the-minute network mapping helps management visualize the entire network from a centralized point.
