Highlights include: • Automatically discovers, maps and monitors switches, ports and network devices • Quickly finds devices and retrieves user name, port details, connection history and more • Enables searching on IP address, user name, hostname or MAC address to track endpoints • Allows whitelisting and watch lists with automatic alerts and click-of-a-button port shutdown • Provides detailed switch port usage data, capacity analysis and built-in reporting With the ever-increasing use of personal devices and applications, SolarWinds UDT provides federal IT Pros with peace of mind about the security of their network and the devices on it by continuously monitoring who and what connects to their network. Additionally, Solar- Winds UDT can track down lost or rogue devices with a simple search of a user name, IP address, hostname or MAC address, ensuring that all devices that can connect to federal networks stay in the right hands. SolarWinds UDT also features alerting that signifies unauthorized network access and provides the ability to quickly shut 82
down switch ports to secure access to sensitive information. Updates to SolarWinds UDT coincide with the latest issues being tackled by IT Pros such as BYOD. In the latest update to scalability and additional support and optimization for varying devices and vendors was a priority. And, by working closely with and listening to its user community, SolarWinds is able to gain real-time and candid feedback from IT practitioners, so its products can address the problems and challenges prevalent in IT security today. SolarWinds UDT provides three critical capabilities for network and systems managers. First, it makes it possible to physically locate an enduser device or user on the network extremely quickly. Second, it allows for rapid quarantine of users or systems by remotely shutting down a switch port. Finally, it supports watch-lists and can alert when certain types of devices or specific users connect to the network and even take pre-defined actions to help protect information and other assets. SolarWinds software is built to scale and can support an IT environment of any size and is used by nearly every U.S. federal civilian agency, DoD branch and intelligence agency. SolarWinds UDT complements other products, such as SolarWinds Network Configuration Monitor, SolarWinds Log & Event Manager, and SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor, to name a few, providing additional breadth and depth for continuous monitoring. SolarWinds software can “collect once and report to many,” which gives IT, information assurance, and security departments the unique functionality they each need from a single, cost-effective set of tools. SolarWinds UDT licensing is based on the number of switch ports to being monitored. The licensing model features large jumps in switch port count allowing for rapid growth of an organization before an additional licensing level is reached and can scale to an unlimited number of switch ports.
