Leveraging NP-View for Operational Efficiency

This case study outlines the challenges faced by a client due to rapid growth in their operational technology (OT) network and staffing turnover, which resulted in insufficient bandwidth for effective network management. Despite the deployment of NP-View Professional Server, the client struggled with manual importation of network device configurations and inconsistencies in network management across different sites. The case study details the solution implemented to enhance operational efficiency and standardization through automation. Key benefits included a 70% reduction in time spent on network auditing and documentation processes, achieving 100% audit documentation readiness, and a 10% reduction in change review time. The NP-View platform facilitated continuous and accurate evidence documentation for NERC CIP and TSA audits, while its network segmentation functionality provided a consistent strategy to mitigate security risks. The collaboration with Network Perception led to significant improvements in operational proficiency and compliance.
