The document explains the security and compliance importance of monitoring network device configuration changes and introduces Qualys’ agentless File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) for routers, switches, and firewalls. It details alert components (timestamp, asset context, side-by-side diffs), automated compliance reporting, incident automation via QQL, and native SIEM integrations (Splunk, IBM QRadar, ServiceNow), positioning the solution to reduce risks of data breaches, downtime, and audit failures while supporting standards like PCI DSS 4.0, HIPAA, and GDPR.
