Find configuration drift. Turn policy failures into corrective work.
Capture actual configuration and operational state, compare it with baselines, and audit the controls required by your enterprise.
WHY IT MATTERS
Controls need to hold between audits.
Configurations change as teams operate the network, deploy software, and respond to incidents. Departures from approved state can introduce security exposure or disrupt services long before the next formal audit. Config Drift & Audit provides a repeatable way to identify those departures and feed corrective processes.
WHAT CONFIG DRIFT & AUDIT PROVIDES
Capabilities built for the work.
Capture, compare, and audit
Capture configuration and operational command results, compare snapshots to identify drift, and evaluate audit policies for required or forbidden conditions. Installed modeling Concept Items can scope the audit inputs.
Choose how assessments run
Run drift comparisons or audits on demand, on a schedule with email notification, from a syslog event, or through a Network RPA workflow.
Manage audit revisions in Git
Use Git integration to synchronize and back up or restore audit policies. Restoring a policy is distinct from changing a device.
Review logs, report, and correct
Integrated logging and reporting support investigation and evidence. Network RPA can connect findings to corrective tasks; CME (Config Model Editor) performs modeled configuration changes and separate node state assessments.
THE BUSINESS CONTRIBUTION
Connect the capability to visible value.
Visible business value comes from maintaining controls and reducing the time that failures remain unresolved. Teams can track recurring drift, audit coverage, and corrective work, then use Compliance Reporting to present that evidence for review.
PART OF THE FULL STACK
Connect the work to the wider platform.
Config Drift & Audit owns snapshot capture and comparison, audit evaluation, integrated logging, and audit reporting. Git integration supports audit-policy synchronization and backup/restore. CME owns configuration intent models, provisioning, and node state assessments. Network RPA coordinates corrective tasks, and Data Explorer supplies reusable reports from stored data.
Functional lifecycle components
Config Model Editor
Model multi-vendor CLI and API intended configuration state with declarative enforcement.
Orchestration & Integration
Network RPA
Build and run visual processes that connect Gluware applications, external systems, operational logic, scheduling, and traceable tasks.
Business outcome solutions
Compliance Reporting
Use Gluware audit results, queries, reports, and exports to show where defined controls hold and where corrective work is needed.
Visibility & reporting
Data Explorer
Build reusable reports from data stored by Gluware, with field selection, filtering, grouping, formatting, scheduling, and exports.

PLATFORM CAPABILITIES
Git integration and Version Control
Git integration is the capability; Version Control is the Gluware component that provides it for supported automation artifacts.
CAPABILITIES THIS COMPONENT SUPPORTS
See the functional value.
Configuration intent & drift management
Define reusable configuration intent, detect departures, apply modeled changes, and reassess the result.
Continuous compliance & reporting
Connect repeatable policy checks, corrective processes, and evidence that operations, security, and compliance teams can review.
Configuration audit
Evaluate required and forbidden configuration conditions with repeatable audit policies and evidence.
Network state audit
Evaluate captured operational command results against defined rules and retain findings for review.
Git integration
Synchronize supported constructs, audit policies, and Network RPA artifacts with Git-based repositories.
Backup & restore
Back up supported device configurations and preserve the model, policy, and process artifacts needed to operate them.
