Auvikโ€™s distributed network software FAQs

What is network security software, and how does Auvik help with network security?

Network security software helps protect your IT infrastructure by identifying vulnerabilities, detecting potential threats, and ensuring compliance.

Auvik enhances your security by providing real-time visibility into all IP-connected devices, including OT and IoT devices. It continuously monitors syslogs so you can detect anomalous activities, backs up security configurations, and is built with strong security policies through RBAC and 2FA to protect your network access. Auvik also integrates with firewalls to detect misconfigurations or suspicious behavior, helping you maintain a secure network environment.

How does Auvik discover IP-connected devices and track security posture?

Auvik uses collector-based scanning to automatically detect every device across your network, regardless of the vendor. This includes everything from embedded cameras, IoT sensors, and OT devices to traditional network hardware like switches and routers. Auvik tags each deviceโ€™s type, device details like firmware versions and host names, and connectivity for visibility, risk classification, and security posture assessment, so your team can track security across all networked assets and understand their security status in real time.

How does configuration backup support security with Auvik?

Auvik helps maintain network security by performing rolling backups of network device configurations and comparing configurations over time. If firewall rules change unexpectedly or ACLs are modified, Auvik generates detailed diffs showing what changed and when it happened. Roll back rapidly in the event of a misconfiguration, and have audit visibility, making it easier to track security settings and comply with regulations.

What access control measures are built into Auvik?

Auvik facilitates secure user access through Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), which allows you to set granular permissions for different users or teams. Auvik also integrates with identity providers such as Okta and Azure AD to enforce mandatory two-factor authentication (2FA) for extra protection. Only authorized personnel can make changes to critical network configurations, and all admin activity is traceable.

Does Auvik support existing firewall and security vendor ecosystems?

Yes. Auvik helps you manage and monitor your security infrastructure without having to manually correlate data from disparate systems. We integrate with leading firewall and security vendors such as Fortinet, Palo Alto, Cisco, Juniper, and hundreds more. It enables you to pull configuration data, flow metrics, and syslog messages from these core security devices, centralizing all security information in one place.

How does Auvik handle anomaly visibility for suspicious traffic?

Auvik helps detect suspicious traffic by combining syslog alerts with traffic analysis. Unusual traffic flows, policy violations, or unknown devices are all visible with real-time network data. With Auvik, you can achieve a faster incident response and more accurate forensic analysis by giving you the context, traffic patterns, and syslog events you need โ€” all in one place.

Is Auvik a full security information and event management system?

No. Auvik provides extensive network security monitoring, but does not perform sandbox-based threat analysis or deep cross-application correlations. For more comprehensive threat intelligence, users can integrate Auvik with a dedicated SIEM tool. Auvik complements SIEM systems by providing detailed visibility into network security and operational data, making it an excellent part of a multi-layered security strategy.

How does pricing work at Auvik?

Auvikโ€™s pricing is based on the number of managed devices, such as firewalls, switches, routers, and wireless controllers, rather than per IP or interface. This pricing model provides flexibility and scalability for growing networks.
