CyberSecurity

Avoid costly downtime
Decrease vendor vulnerabilities
Improve configuration integrity
Identify which OSes require upgrades, patches, and downgrades to ensure that only stable, reliable, and approved software are running
Enforce network configuration related to security, including ACL policies
View progress towards compliance with dashboards

A new world paradigm has created the need for comprehensive security. Increasingly sophisticated application-level threats present challenging security issues to networks and devices. As incidents of cyber attacks and data breaches rise, organizations must fortify their security practices and implement measures to ensure the ongoing safety of their networks and critical data. This requires a holistic and all-encompassing approach, and step one is understanding your attack surface. To know your attack surface, you need to know everything on your network.

Modernizations

Industry’s most accurate identification of devices on your network
Identify end-of-life equipment before you modernize
Ability to rapidly integrate with 3rd party API

Organizations often struggle to modernize enterprise IT assets efficiently, cost-effectively, and in a non-disruptive manner. ITPIE has a proven track record of IT modernization on some of the largest networks globally. When it comes to modernizations, ITPIE provides an accurate inventory of IT resources, helps in determining/projecting the useful life of current resources, ensures compliance and standards, and provides network architects the ability to plan and optimize their next-generation network efficiently. Moreover, ITPIE does all this without disrupting your network.

Product Acquisition

Get the maximum purchasing power discounts because you can inventory everything across your global network
Ensure End of Life (EOL) and EoSL (End of Service Life) items are identified to maximize purchasing discounts
Quickly assess and inventory everything on a new merger or acquisition

Organizations with tens of thousands of devices and possibly 100,000+ endpoints are always looking to maximize their purchasing power. To get the desirable high discount purchasing power, you need to know everything on your network and what devices may be at the end of life or service. Large network managers find it is challenging to know everything on their global networks that may have securely siloed networks. The challenge can be magnified if your organization has recently acquired or merged with another organization. ITPIE allows you to get the maximum purchasing power you deserve by being able to define all the devices on your network regardless of OS and vendor. Additionally, ITPIE will let you know which devices are at the end of life or service, so your purchases are consolidated, and your organization is leveraging its purchasing discounts.

Executive Reporting

ITPIE gives executives what they want – actionable intelligence they can act on now. Executives know what it is like to ask for a network map or an ad-hoc network report and wait several days or weeks. ITPIE delivers information quickly in several forms. ITPIE has dashboards and standard and custom reports that generate on-screen readouts or exportable reports.

Executive reports frequently get stalled because the information is trapped in one network management system that won’t play well with other applications. ITPIE’s data can easily be imported, exported, or shared by API. Additionally, the API can be set up to interact with other systems programmatically. When the foundational network data can breathe and comingle with other systems, the final output is richer and tailored, allowing executives to take the action they need quickly.

Code and Config Backup

ITPIE can backup device configurations and compare the current state with a previous state to help operators rapidly identify what has changed on your network. In addition, ITPIE can host future state target configuration profiles, compare them to your current state configurations, and allows you to build, store and deploy scripts using flexible templates to transform your network into your desired future state.

Planning / Engineering

Continually monitor your network for configuration changes and identify precisely what changes
Perform initial audit for ‘out of policy’ configurations without the need for scripting
Reduce human errors with automations that are sourced from the live network
Avoid manual troubleshooting with Intelligent Search, which finds your device in seconds
Avoid the manual process of going out in the field and defining your inventory. A few quick clicks get you all your network details

ITPIE provides a near real time and accurate single source of truth, enabling network engineers to report on and visualize their environment and affect change on the network by pushing Operating System (OS) or system configuration updates. In addition, ITPIE provides All Terrain Collection, in-depth Asset Management, detailed Configuration Management, Dynamic Data Visualization, and Intelligent Search capabilities to simplify routine network engineering and planning that would typically require several days to execute and does it in hours or minutes.

UCPIE

Map your VOIP network and get updates in near real-time.
Get visibility during VoIP transition, showing real-world migration status as it occurs.
Access an inventory of all telephony (TDM, VOIP) devices on your network in seconds.
For those migrating from a TDM to a UC network, this functionality will cut your project time to a fraction of its original estimate.
Simplified administration of all phone assets in one application as a single source of truth.

UCPIE automates the collection of phone devices and normalizes the data from disparate sources to perform rapid site surveys and frame verifications. Analysis of collected data associates phone numbers with TDM switch ports and locations. Automating this survey reduces human error while significantly reducing labor hours. As a result, project efforts can be focused on engineering and migration instead of data collection.

Network Operations

Make network changes in minutes, not hours
See all parts of your network from one source and locate items instantly
Quickly create reports that show the differences between your intended configuration and your actual configuration
Quickly create reports of devices going End of Life (EOL), EoSL (End of Service Life), and EoS (End of Sale)
Reply in minutes to ad-hoc audits related to vulnerabilities by creating unique reports that provide the exact network details you need

Business requirements are constantly changing, and IT organizations must be able to respond to common and standard change requests and unplanned changes. Reduce your mean time to respond and mean time to resolve with functionality unique to ITPIE – Intelligent Search and Time Slider. ITPIE makes your NetOps more agile by giving you the ability to quickly intelligently search your network and then see the network with dynamic maps that can filter and look back in time.

Life Cycles – End Of Life Management

Initial provisioning of the device
Instant End of Life (EOL), EoSL (End of Service Life), and EoS (End of Sale) reports
Quickly define what at the End of Life (EOL), so you can purchase the right amount of equipment

Generate detailed hardware inventory reports, license reports, port utilization, and more, giving NetOps the power to actively manage the deployment and lifecycle management as devices go End of Life (EOL), EoSL (End of Service Life), EoS (End of Sale) and perform capacity planning.

Surveys

Up to date, accurate, single source of truth that is universally accessible
Knowing all devices regardless of OS or vendor
Always current and available state of inventory

When one needs to survey a network, the first step is to look at the last survey completed. Unfortunately, the previous survey was likely collecting dust in a binder on a shelf or may be stored in an old excel spreadsheet or worse; several people have different versions of the same spreadsheet. ITPIE solves that problem by providing a single source of truth and inventory across all your networks, even sites air-gapped from the main network. With ITPIE, your inventory or assessment is available in minutes with a few clicks, and everyone with permission can have access to the same up-to-date network details.
