Security is a top priority for IT monitoring, especially in light of recent data breaches and increasing cybersecurity threats. Nagios provides a robust, secure monitoring solution that keeps your data within your local environment—never transmitting sensitive information to external Nagios servers.
Our strict internal practices, ongoing vulnerability monitoring, and partnerships with external security experts ensure the safety and integrity of both your data and our software.
WHY NAGIOS IS DIFFERENT
All Nagios employees undergo background checks and work onsite in our Minneapolis/St. Paul office. We enforce strict security protocols, including locked workstations, restricted access to sensitive information, secure Wi-Fi, strong authentication practices, updated antivirus software, and regular cybersecurity training. Our products are fully developed in-house by full-time engineers, with no outsourcing, ensuring full control over development and security.
Nagios solutions rely on local data storage, giving you full control over your information. We cannot access your systems without explicit consent through secure remote support sessions. You can deploy Nagios solutions entirely on-premises, on a server, in private/public cloud environments, or offline, ensuring your security plan aligns with your organizational requirements.
All our products are built on a base of open-source code, which means our solutions are inherently transparent and have been extensively tested. You have complete visibility to the code and can modify it as you see fit. Because our code is fully developed and maintained in house by the same dedicated team, we know our work is safe and secure.
