Predict and Prevent Network Disruptions

See how network health issues may be impacting your users, and jump directly to any incident to investigate.

Strengthen Security in Real Time

See what portion of your traffic is flowing over rules that adhere to best practices, including ones you’ve added to fit your needs. You can also compare adjustments to see which will have the most impact.

Predict and Prevent Network Disruptions

Use the policy analyzer to gauge the impact of new policy changes before they are pushed to your NGFWs.

Comprehensive Management for all Deployments

Oversee all your assets, users, applications and devices — including IoT — from the summary view. From here, you can see how your network is being accessed and secured while also being able to click deeper into areas of interest.

With Strata Cloud Manager, you have a comprehensive view of what’s going on and how to configure your security services to create the best outcomes.
