How it Works
Open-AudIT is a tool that offers detailed information about the devices on your network, including their configurations and any changes that occur. It is designed to be installed on a server (Windows or Linux) and used to scan your networks for devices. When a device is found, Open-AudIT runs a series of commands on it and saves the resulting data in a database. This data can be used for various reporting purposes. Open-AudIT comes with a set of over 50 reports, and users can also create custom reports as needed.
Open-AudIT uses an agentless framework to audit your network on your schedule without impacting user experience. The device discovery engine scans your network and intelligently stores the configurations of every discovered component. This provides information such as hardware details, software licensing, configuration changes, non-authorized devices, capacity utilization, and hardware warranty status.
