Surface security and compliance risks early by continuously validating network, cloud, and application behavior against intent.
Can You Prove That You’re In Control?
Auditors are looking for conclusive evidence of compliance with security, regulatory, and operational standards. IP Fabric gives you the deterministic insights you need to find risks before auditors do.
Operationalize Security Frameworks
Automatically verify that every network, cloud, and host-level policy is enforced according to industry-leading standards like CIS, NIST, and ISO 27001.
Comply With Regulatory Requirements
Run intent checks across millions of infrastructure data points to generate timestamped proof of compliance with PCI-DSS, HIPAA, DORA, NIS2, and more.
Ensure Consistency Across Operations
Plan large-scale projects with confidence. Run daily snapshots to track your progress and pinpoint any drift from intent before it causes any downstream effects.
Deploy Deterministic Intent Checks
Run out-of-the-box checks based on industry best practices, or create any custom checks without specialized query languages. Every check is applied across millions of network, cloud, and application data points to catch deviations from intent, such as:
- EoL, EoS, or EoM devices
- Single points of failure
- Unauthorized Telnet access
- AAA misconfigurations
- Misrouted paths
- Improper segmentation
- Duplicate IP addresses
- And more
Compare Historical Snapshots
Evaluate up to five snapshots at a time to pinpoint any changes in network behavior, such as:
- New, missing, or misconfigured devices
- Broken or rerouted paths
- Security or regulatory policy drift
Ask The MCP Server Anything
Query IP Fabric’s MCP server in natural language, and get insights based on your latest snapshot. Ask the MCP server to:
- Detect security / regulatory drift
- Populate ITSM tickets with contextualized data
- Compare historical snapshots & end-to-end paths
- Map applications to underlying infrastructure
- Correlate SD-WAN underlays & overlays
- Generate persona-based security / regulatory reports

FAQs
Monitoring alerts tell you about something that’s happening in your network right now, but they can’t tell you where the issue is or how to fix it. On the other hand, IP Fabric’s intent checks tell you precisely where your network behavior deviates from your intended design. IP Fabric can also kick off the remediation process by populating ITSM tickets with data from intent checks to ensure the swiftest possible resolution.
There are two ways to create custom intent checks with IP Fabric, and neither requires advanced knowledge of coding or query languages:
- Turn any IP Fabric table into an intent check.
- Ask IP Fabric’s MCP server to create an intent check for you.
Either way, all you have to do is define the conditions of your intent, and IP Fabric will run that check in every snapshot.
Yes, you can run ad-hoc intent checks at any time in using IP Fabric’s enterprise-grade MCP server. The MCP server will share deterministic insights and customized reports based on IP Fabric’s latest snapshot and any parameters that you add using natural language.
IP Fabric uses read-only CLI and API access to build a complete inventory of every device in your network, including device hostnames, serial numbers, model numbers, software versions, and lifecycle statuses. Built-in intent checks will flag any device approaching End-of-Life (EoL), End-of-Support (EoS), and End-of-Maintenance (EoM) milestones. With this data readily on hand, you can plan refreshes years in advance and stay audit-ready year round.
Every time IP Fabric runs a snapshot, it’s also running compliance checks across millions of network, cloud, and application data points. The results of those checks are normalized and presented in user-friendly dashboards, so you always have proof of security and regulatory compliance at the ready.
If IP Fabric detects any risks to compliance, it automatically initiates the remediation process by sending webhooks to external tools like Ansible, ServiceNow, or Nautobot. Once remediation is complete, IP Fabric runs another snapshot to confirm that any risks have been addressed.
