Nipper Resilience for Proactive Network Security
Need ready, recoverable and resilient networks?
Gain real-time visibility and proactive analysis of every network change, to get ahead of threats and accidental networking errors – before they cause operational disruption.
Why networks need Nipper Resilience
Network disruptions – from ransomware, advanced persistent threat groups, accidental misconfigurations or software update failures - can have catastrophic operational, financial and reputational consequences.
Nipper Resilience gives NOC, SOC and Incident Response & Remediation teams the real-time information they need to assure critical networks are ready and resilient to state-sponsored (Volt and Salt Typhoon) and industry-specific attacks, and administrative networking errors; and are quickly recoverable in the event of a disruption or disaster.
The Nipper Resilience solution also provides evidence of compliance with the latest readiness and resilience mandates, including: US GOV Zero Trust, CORA, EU DORA and NIS 2.

Proactively detect, validate and assess impact of every network change to identify exposure and IOCs

Prioritize remediation, response and recovery programs according to business critical disruption impact

Ensure accurate and complete CMDB underpins disaster recovery and business continuity program

Evidence and assure compliance with corporate and/or externally mandated readiness and resilience best practices

Scheduled Network Posture Assessments
Increase the coverage of assessments for up to 250,000+ devices, to improve attack surface management by supporting ZT segmentation and policy enforcement, determining adherence to operational readiness and resilience standards (e.g. CORA and DORA), and automatically reporting pass/fail compliance with:
- PCI DSS 4.0
- NIST
- STIGs
- CIS Benchmarks

Near-Real Time Network Exposure Monitoring
Key to minimizing the attack surface and developing operational resilience, Nipper Resilience proactively monitors all network changes, providing visibility of ZT macro segmentation violations and vulnerabilities, automatically mapped to specific MITRE ATT&CK TTPs and industry specific attack vectors, to:
- Inform scope and focus of threat hunting and incident response
- Prioritize risk remediation by network segment and/or attack exposure criticality
- Determine systematic exploitable vulnerabilities that require a remediation strategy
Nipper Resilience
Architected for the Enterprise
Nipper Resilience has been architected to support internal and external use cases, via multi-tenanted deployments. A horizontally scalable, agentless web-based application, the solution is accessible through modern web browsers. Rest APIs and JSON outputs provide integration with trusted 2FA, CMDB/Git repository, SIEM, SOAR, GRC and trouble-ticketing solutions, to ensure full integration within the proactive security tech stack.
Flexible deployment options include:
- On-premise – deployed on a server; either a physical machine or using a virtualization platform (e.g. VMware ESXi with an Open Virtual Appliance);
- Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) – deployed using an Amazon Machine Image (AMI);
- Flyaway Kit – installed on a physical or virtual laptop
For CMDB-centric Network Resilience
The configuration collection layer within Nipper Resilience can be enacted to auto-populate and maintain the organization’s configuration repository. Enacting the configuration collection layer also provides the additional benefit of allowing users to manage ‘configurations as code’.
Nipper Resilience detects network infrastructure device changes on the target network before securely extracting and storing live device configurations in the provisioned configuration repository. Git-based repositories also allow digital twin environments to be generated, which can be synched with Nipper Resilience to test pre-production configuration changes ahead of deploying them to live devices. Changes made to the live configuration are then proactively re-checked to assure the device maintains a secure state.
Next-Generation Continuous Network Exposure Management Solution
For teams tasked with operational readiness and resilience
- For NOC teams
- For SOC teams
- For Incident Response / Hunt teams
For NOC teams
Up to date CMDBs and near real-time visibility of network changes to:
- Investigate and compare actual, planned and unauthorized network changes
- Manage ‘configuration as code’ to test pre-production config changes, expedite disaster recovery from operational incidents and perform root cause analysis of changes that may have caused the incident
- Assure that ‘tested configuration changes’ when implemented in the live environment have been successful and the device maintains a secure state
For SOC teams
Near real-time visibility of:
- Overall attack surface posture by mission critical segments
- Exposure to APTs’ specific tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) as a consequence of network misconfigurations and software vulnerabilities and
- Systematic exploitable vulnerabilities that require a remediation strategy
For Incident Response / Hunt teams
Visibility of:
- Current and historic attack surface postures to inform scope and focus of response and
- Critical indicators of compromise (IOCs) not visible to traffic monitoring solutions
