Network Mapping Allows visual display of networks segmented components and their connected resources. Security Analytics Utilizes behavioral analysis to improve security procedures and documentation. API/Integrations Application Programming Interface - Specification for how the application communicates with other software. API's typically enable integration of data, logic, objects, etc. with other software applications. Show More ##### ## Security (4) Security Automation Allows administrative control over automated security tasks. Application Security Protects application access and data. Prompts additional authentication for suspicious users. Workload Protection Protects computing resources across a network. Prompts additional authentication for suspicious users. Data Protection Protects informatin stored on premises and in the cloud. Prompts additional authentication for suspicious users. Show More ##### ## Identity Management (3) Adaptive Access Control Provides a risk-based approcach to determining trust within the network. Identity Scoring Calculates risk based on user behavior, permissions, and requests. User Monitoring Monitors users attempting unauthorized access to databases, applicaitons, and othe network components. Show More ##### ## Protection (4) Policy Enforcement Allows administrators to set policies for security and governance. Security Audit Allows for deep examination into network-connected devices, policies, and protocols. Access Control Supports LDAP Protocol to enable access control and governance. User Authentication Authenticates users prior to granting access to networks, applciations, and systems. Show More ##### ## Monitoring (4) Compliance Monitoring Monitors data and compliance requirements. Sends alerts based on violations or misuse. Vulnerability Monitoring Monitors networks, applications, and systems to identify misconfigurations and access points that can be easily compromised. Configuration Monitoring Monitors configuration rule sets and policy enforcement measures and document changes to maintain compliance. Observability Generate insights across IT systems utilizing event metrics, logging, traces, and metadata.
