  • Compliance Ready - SOX, PCI-DSS, GDPR, ISO27001 support
  • Audit Trails - Complete logging of all system activities
  • Role-Based Access - Granular permissions and authentication

📊 Real-Time Dashboards

Visibility where you need it:

  • Executive Summaries - High-level network health for management
  • Technical Details - Deep-dive analytics for engineers
  • Custom Views - Tailored dashboards for different teams
  • Mobile Friendly - Access insights from anywhere

🔌 Easy Integration

Designed to work with your existing setup:
