What is Titania Nipper?

Titania’s network configuration assessment software, Nipper, is used by teams to determine whether their routers, switches and firewalls leave their networks open to attack due to misconfigurations and exploitable vulnerabilities. Nipper helps organizations close these security gaps by automatically prioritizing risks by criticality, allowing users to view vulnerabilities through their chosen compliance and security policy lenses.

For organizations that are ready to make the shift from risk-based vulnerability management (RBVM) to continuous threat exposure management (CTEM), Nipper Resilience gives NOC, SOC and Incident Response & Remediation teams the real-time information needed to assure their critical networks are ready to defend against industry-specific attacks, resilient to administrative errors, and quickly recoverable in the event of a disruption or disaster.
