🧑💻 NERC CIP audit prep at most utilities follows the same pattern: auditors announce a review, two or three senior engineers get pulled for two to four weeks, and the team reconstructs documentation that reflects the network as it was months ago, not as it is today. 🛡️ FERC's 2023 INSM rule made that gap harder to defend. Continuous internal network monitoring is now a documented requirement for high-impact BES environments, including east-west traffic inside the regulated perimeter. 📝 We put together a technical breakdown of what this means for network operations teams — what NERC CIP requires, where the evidence gaps typically live, how remote substations factor in, and what the audit cycle looks like when documentation is maintained continuously instead of assembled under a deadline. 🔗 Read more: https://okt.to/kgQEtC

🤝 Dallas delivered 🌸 The NetBrain team just wrapped the ONUG Spring 2026 AI Networking Summit, and Agentic NetOps was front and center all week. 🎤 We had VP of Global Services David Mann on a NOC Efficiency & AI panel, Senior Technical Marketing Manager Nigel Hickey hitting the Triple T stage to help teams get unstuck in their journey to Agentic NetOps, and the whole team driving conversations at the booth. 🦾 This is where the industry is moving, and NetBrain is leading the way. 👋 Thank you to everyone who stopped by.

🔌 A major U.S. energy utility has been running NetBrain since 2016. What started as a need for basic network mapping turned into something much bigger. 💡 Over time, they built a network operations model that evolved from basic visibility into full proactive control, giving their team the confidence to manage a major infrastructure transformation without slowing down the business or taking on unnecessary risk. 💻 From reactive outage response to full network confidence. Watch their full story on our website. ⬇️ https://okt.to/WcSmi1

🛫 Airports don't get the luxury of a slow news day when a baggage system or concourse switch goes down. ⏱️ Even a few minutes offline ripples fast in delays, misconnections, and the kind of coverage no one wants. 🗺️ NetBrain continuously maps the hybrid network and validates the paths those systems depend on. When something breaks, teams see the technical fault and the operational impact – which baggage zone, which doors, which cameras, which part of the passenger journey is at risk – and can react faster to keep operations running smoothly. 🌐 For large airports, staying out of the outage headlines is a win. That makes our role with these airports simple: keep critical services online, and keep network issues boring. 🎥 Hear more from our own Brian Clark and Almina Avdic ⬇️

🛬 One change to a firewall brought down an entire airline’s network. 💸 16,000 cancelled flights. 2 million passengers affected. $150M in losses. And the ripple effects carried across countries. ✈️ NetBrain Senior Partner Sales Executive Mark West joined APNT | Network Technology’s Apollo Podcast to talk about how airlines can avoid this scenario by operating with full network visibility and continuous assessment before something goes wrong. 🎥 Watch the clip:

💶 Many EMEA banking and financial services teams came to our recent events across Europe focused on DORA and NIST2 audit readiness, and were already aware of some of our continuous compliance, dashboard, and reporting capabilities. 🌐 What they didn’t expect was the ability to ask the system “what’s the blast radius of this compromised device?” and getting a device-by-device answer across their entire network. Firewall by firewall. Where you’re clean, where you’re not. 🧐 A few of those conversations ended with “I didn’t realize that capability was available”. 🛡️ That’s DORA readiness with some actual teeth. 🎥 Hear more from the field with Colin Wall, Steve Krater, and Ross Merkle ⬇️

🏆 Big moment for the NetBrain team CRN named NetBrain’s National Channel Manager Melanie (Magary) Lincoln, to the 2026 Women of the Channel list 👏 This annual list recognizes women across the IT channel who drive real impact for partners, customers and the broader ecosystem.

📝 DORA goes beyond auditing your policy documents. It audits your operational behavior: what your network actually did during an incident, whether the evidence was captured in real time, and whether your live configuration still matches your documented design. 🧐 Those gaps – configuration drift, retrospective evidence, and hybrid blind spots – are what regulators find most often. 🗺️ We’ve mapped out exactly how NetBrain addresses all 5 DORA ICT resilience pillars, across on-prem and cloud. Worth a look if your team is carrying this compliance load. 🔗 https://okt.to/9Vckub
