New features

Security vulnerability monitoring

A set of features that allow us to monitor the security of our systems, supervising what installed applications are vulnerable. For that, data are cross-referenced with those from the inventory of each agent and also agents are remotely checked, to find out which applications are listening on the network. If offers a summary graph with all the vulnerabilities by agent.

Pandora FMS - Release 774Pandora FMS uses a known vulnerability database, using CVE, NVD and other public databases.

New tactical screen

Together with important upgrades in system auto-monitoring, with dozens of new metrics, we designed a tactical screen that will display the information summary on the system status when logging in.

Pandora FMS - Release 774

New dashboards and hardening reports

It complements the security assessment configuration feature (hardening), added in the previous version. It offers general dashboards and reports perfect for working in the steady improvement of system security. These reports are ideal for internal audits, regulation compliance and internal security departments.

Pandora FMS - Release 774
Pandora FMS - Release 774

New tool: Graph analytics

It is a tool conceived for failure detection, compared analysis and pattern detection. It allows users to search and compare agent and module graphs. It is accessed through the side menu Operation → Reporting → Graph analytics.

Pandora FMS - Release 774The work of organizing the most important data and information can be saved through a filter and a public link can even be shared, moreover graphs can also be exported to section Custom graph.

Complex alerts

New feature to create new alert templates, which allow processing extraordinary calculations in addition to ordinary monitoring.

These complex alerts allow calculating the average or sum, or detecting the maximum and the minimum of the information monitored, such as for example receiving a warning when the CPU use percentage in a week exceeds the average.

Pandora FMS - Release 774
Pandora FMS - Proxmox

New Discovery 2.0 plugin: Proxmox

Centralized version through Discovery 2.0 from the ProxMox Enterprise plugin that allows to retrieve data from the node API, backups, virtual machines, lxc containers and storage.

Service trees view in vertical format

Some of our clients asked for an alternate way to see services, since when there were lots of them, they were not displayed correctly, so we added an alternate way in which to display them:

Pandora FMS - Release 774

Version obsolescence management

Broadened the OS management system to be able to assign expiration dates to specific SO versions, so that not only specific searches can be carried out by certain SO versions, but also generate support expiration reports (End Of Lifesupport).

Pandora FMS - Release 774

New widget: Group Status Map

New widget that shows agent state and modules from a specific group in an interactive map in real time.

Pandora FMS - Release 774

New widget: Widget cloning

Usability improvement that enables cloning a widget within the same dashboard.

Pandora FMS - Release 774

Multiple selection in the visual console

A feature that was suggested for years and that we finally implemented. Now multiple elements can be selected to move them, resize them or delete them.
