Nipper for routers, switches & firewalls

Proactive Network Configuration Assessments

Close your most critical security and compliance gaps with prioritized risk and remediation findings from Nipper.

What is Nipper?

Analyzing configurations with the precision of a pentester, Nipper is a must have on-demand solution for configuration management, compliance and control.

Network risk owners use Nipper to shut down known pathways that could allow threat actors to alter network configurations and scale attacks.

Whilst assessors use Nipper to reduce audit times by up to 80% with pass/fail evidence of compliance with military, federal and industry regulations.

Delivering Increased Security From Compliance Through Automation

Providing complementary analysis to server-centric vulnerability assessment, Nipper’s advanced network contextualization suppresses irrelevant findings, prioritizes risks by criticality, and automates device-specific guidance on how to fix misconfigurations.

Exception-based security reporting

Nipper’s renowned Security Audit automates configuration checks to report exceptions that fail to adhere to vendor hardening guides and network infrastructure hardening best practices.

Internal Teams/Auditors

Quickly, easily and accurately detect networking misconfigurations and determine their impact if exploited, the ease of exploitation, and ease of fix. View the findings through Nipper’s security or compliances lenses to accurately report your posture and prioritize remediation workflows by risk criticality.

How it Works

How to use Titania Nipper: Nipper is a downloadable application which is installed on a local machine, enabling deployment in air-gapped environments and offline networks. The configuration assessment methodology does not require direct access to devices. Running the latest available version of Nipper ensures access to the most up to date security policy checks, compliance framework mapping and product enhancements.

Diagram explaining how Nipper works, using config data from switches, routers and firewalls, it reads the running config, virtually models each device including their settings, then automates comparison of device data to vendor hardening guides and compliance standards to identify misconfigurations, then it will then risk-prioritize findings presented in a human-readable format.

Audit Scoping

ICON - Proactive Audits
Define the scope of the audit by specifying which IP addresses to include/exclude, which audit reports should be scoped and whether to include/exclude report sections.

Configurable Check Parameters

ICON - Configurable Parameters
Detailed check descriptions and configurable parameters help ensure network checks reflect organizational policies and risk profile.

Report Browser

ICON - Report Browser
Navigate audit reports with ease, add notes and exclude findings as required. Report modifications can be applied each time the same device or device type is audited.

'Save' Formatting

ICON - Save Formatting
Easily read, filter, manage and export findings to a variety of platforms including STIG Viewer (Checklist, CMRS, XCCDF, and CSV), HTML, SQL, CSV, LaTex, ASCII, and XML).

Air-gapped Assessements

ICON - Air-gapped Assessments

Assess and assure security and compliance, even in offline networks. The configuration assessment methodology does not require direct access to devices.
