Are Nipper solutions suitable for government use?

Nipper solutions are widely used in government departments globally. Contact us for more details.

Why is effective segmentation so important to reduce risk?

Segmentation is fundamental to government network resilience because it breaks a complex environment into clearly defined zones (e.g., user, server, management, OT, etc.) with explicit, least privilege connectivity between them. This therefore means that if government networks are breached, the chances of accessing key data are reduced.

How do Nipper solutions help with Zero Trust?

Nipper OmniSight helps federal government cybersecurity teams confirm whether their network devices are correctly enforcing Zero Trust segmentation and least privilege access policies. By combining this with pre-emptive exposure assessment Nipper OmniSight can provide a real-time, adversary-aware picture of how resilient the network truly is.

We already have vulnerability management tools. Why should we add Nipper solutions?

Vulnerability management is well-suited to devices with relatively static configurations like servers and endpoints. But network devices are highly configurable, so benefit from the in-depth analysis that Nipper technology can provide to spot misconfigurations and align these to the latest tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) used by attackers targeting government networks.

We use policy management for all our applications. Why should we add Nipper solutions?

If a device is correctly enforcing application connectivity policy, policy management solutions would not flag the risk – yet if it was compromised by a weak password, any classified data passing between applications would be vulnerable. Nipper solutions address this critical risk for government agencies.

How does AI change the threat landscape?

AI has yet to create new attack vectors: what’s changed is the speed and scale of attacks. APTs and ransomware groups leverage the power of AI to exploit exposures across flat networks far faster – attacking multiple points including mission-critical systems and data at the same time.

Can Nipper solutions help us map our network?

Yes, both Nipper OmniSight (Integrated) and Nipper OmniSight (Continuous) can create visual representations of your networks, based on the device configurations stored in a CMDB. Nipper OmniSight (Continuous) can also populate a CMDB if you don’t already have one.

We don’t have a CMDB. Can we use Nipper OmniSight?

Yes. You can use the configuration collector in Nipper OmniSight (Continuous) to populate a CMDB. Or you can use Nipper OmniSight (Standalone), which uses the configurations you upload to provide a point-in-time assessment of your cybersecurity defense.

Solutions | Industry

Standard security tools don’t see these vulnerabilities, because they are not designed to look for them. Nipper solutions do, assessing the configuration of switches, routers, and firewalls to find critical exposures before attackers do.

Through Nipper OmniSight, you also build resilience, with Zero Trust segmentation assurance and continuous threat exposure monitoring, so that even if your network is breached, the potential for data theft and damage is contained, in line with NIST requirements.

Protection for the most secure environments

Because Nipper solutions operate without network connectivity – assessing configuration files – they can be used to assess network devices in maximum-security environments.

Zero Trust segmentation assurance

Nipper OmniSight helps federal agencies confirm whether their network devices are correctly enforcing Zero Trust segmentation and least privilege access policies.

Helps stakeholders clearly understand risk exposure

“One of the key strengths is its ability to map configuration findings against compliance frameworks and security best practices. The reporting is structured, audit-friendly, and helps stakeholders clearly understand risk exposure. The risk-based prioritization is particularly valuable, as it allows us to focus remediation efforts on high-impact issues.”
