We are working on process automation thanks to powerful Artificial Intelligence, on creating a CMDB, on security monitoring and on automated deployment

Security monitoring

Pandora FMS gets into a new observability area: security monitoring to find out the status of the security of each monitored element.

The new product developments will allow you to control vulnerabilities, risk activities at endpoints (with their own EDR), continuous hardening evaluation and event collection and correlation (SIEM).

Security
Pandora FMS AI

Applied Artificial Intelligence

We have a specific Artificial Intelligence department that works to offer AI solutions that detect pattern changes, alert application and thresholds automatically, among other tasks.

We try to create a tool capable of analyzing monitoring history to predict trends, set automatic correlation alerts and be able to, using CMDB regulations, carry out root cause analysis.

Integrated CMDB

Thanks to monitoring, auto-discovery and collected information, we can already offer our clients our very own CMDB, fully integrated into Pandora FMS and fed in real time. We’ll apply on it the Helpdesk logic of our software with Integria IMS, a product from the same suite.

We’ll be able to create graphs to represent service dependencies, make impact simulations (failure, service loss), park obsolescence reports and fully integrate them with third-party processes thanks to a powerful REST API, for the CMDB to be the core of IT management.

Pandora FMS CMDB
Pandora FMS Automatization

IT automation

From release 741, we added our IT automation cornerstone: OmniShell, a tool capable of executing commands in a distributed way using current agent technology.

We want to turn Pandora FMS into the key of IT automation without using third-party applications and staying true to our centralized console ethics; with that we will achieve to deploy software, make corrective changes, execute configurations and change deployments or apply patches, among other tasks that can be automated and deployed through policies on Linux and Windows machines and network devices.

Release notes

Make the most out of all the new features, improvements and important security patches. Check out the release notes and subscribe to our newsletter to receive notifications about the new updates.

100% safe monitoring

IT security has always been present as priority business core. We can claim that Pandora FMS adapts to comply with demanding security standards such as PCI/DSS or ISO 27001.

The biggest mistake would be not to try

Free 30-day unlimited trial

Do you have any questions about Pandora FMS performance? We know an all-in-one monitoring suite may seem complex or hard to use. Install our Free Trial and try out the benefits Pandora FMS offers you.

Renewed UI

Upcoming release of the new user interface (UI). A Pandora FMS platform that is easier to use, more intuitive and visually appealing, designed to maximize user productivity.
We’re working on updating the look and feel of the whole platform with a new font, icons, and styles.

New HA system

The new HA system replaces the previous one and integrates the HA system itself that supports installations with nodes in different subnets/geographical areas.

Security console

Security console, for monitored system safety management. It will show system configuration weak spots, report installed vulnerable applications, detect and install recommended patches and implement an active resource control. This console will include an integrated forensics section with all the data collected from each system.

Trending modules

It creates a new type of predictive module that compares two time ranges and evaluates by percentage or absolutely the difference. Those modules can be used in alerts, graphs or reports.

Flow data monitoring

Be able to integrate simple data coming from a netflow filter as a Pandora FMS numerical module, to be able to for instance, set alerts when the traffic of a specific flow exceeds a threshold or be able to measure the SLA in flow traffic.

Prediction in monitoring with Deep Learning

Prediction in monitoring with Deep Learning, which will enable alert and report generation for environments with many data sources, helping you in that process of issue prevention. Complex algorithmic processes can be applied to data series to predict behaviors or detect anomalies thanks to different Deep Learning algorithms.

Modular discovery (through plugins)

Discovery is the future of Pandora FMS, through plugins you will allow anyone to develop a backend and define a front-end to easily create and integrate the discovery and monitoring of any technology.

Remote inventory through Satellite servers

Remote inventory through Satellite servers, without installing anything on computers, and perfect for discovering all kinds of information in remote offices, such as installed software, hardware, serial numbers, users and other resources.

Cloud monitoring enhancements with Discovery

(Amazon AWS, Azure, Google Cloud). Add dozens of new services whose purpose is covering different applications better in a standard way.

Patch management

It will allow not only to find out which recommended patches are missing, in order to install them on the machine, but also the ability to install them in an unattended way from Pandora FMS agent, automating system management.

Real-time automation

Software installation, server restart, script deployment (Omnishell 2.0 and Subspace Server 1.0).

New template system for the visual console and the dashboard

It allows exporting/importing, applying on certain existing elements with regular expressions and other advanced features.

GIS alerts

Be able to send alerts when an agent gets out of a delimited coordinate zone, which is usually called “geo-fencing”.

Agent data query

On manual demand: configuration data, status, hardware status, SO items, logs, etc., in real time (everything from a predefined-element library). With no additional configuration, it would only be necessary to deploy an additional agent to that of Pandora FMS. Those data are only to be seen on screen, not to make alerts or reports. That data range would be too broad and standard. It requires the console’s direct connectivity as well as that of the agent that must listen on a specific port.

API/Console Load Balancing

Provide a standard system that allows console and API load balancing for load scaling and distribution. Perfect for environments where API use is intensive or the console is used in multi-tenant environments.

IoT in Satellite server

Offer support to the Satellite Server to natively support modbus and MQTT protocols.
