The Evolution of NOCs
Explore the evolution from Traditional NOC to Cognitive NOC, and why AI-driven operations are becoming essential for managing modern network complexity.

We are excited to announce the new release of OptOSS AI 10.1ยฎ. This release introduces new GenAI functionality to identify and react on cybersecurity threats, help with complex root cause analysis cases, improves operational visibility, strengthens audit and security controls, enhances monitoring functionality for complex ICT systems, and includes multiple ergonomics and usability improvements designed to support more efficient large ICT systems operations.

OptOSS AI v.10.1 introduces a new feature for the automatic detection and rapid response to cyber security incidents. This functionality is powered by the CyberSecurity AIKP. The AIKP continuously analyzes received events, autonomously identifies security threat patterns, finds the source of the attack, and performs an analysis. It then creates comprehensive reports within the application and sends external notifications to the ticketing system. Each newly created incident ticket is pre-populated with the analyzed data, ensuring all necessary information is available for follow-up and correspondence with relevant remote abuse departments. In the GUI, security incidents are only considered resolved when the corresponding ticket in the monitoring system is marked as resolved.
โ
The CyberSecurity AIKP capabilities include:
These capabilities help security personnel automate incident response and immediately react to security incidents, significantly reducing administrative overhead related to compliance reporting.


โ
The AIKP deeply analyzes the potential cyber security incident and classifies the threat. It then creates a security incident ticket in the monitoring system, following pre-configured business logic. The ticket includes an on-prem LLM-generated abuse report containing:

A new on-prem LLM based root cause analysis module helps with analysis of complex issues spanning multiple devices where unexpected behavior on one device is caused by a problem on another device
Operators can use the Root Cause Analysis (RCA) module of OptOSS AI Assistant to automatically find the root cause of an issue. OptOSS AI automatically monitors devices exhibiting unexpected behavior and the devices that triggered that behavior. The RCA module analyzes events from all affected devices to suggest the root cause. This functionality significantly reduces the time required for live troubleshooting during an ongoing crisis, post-incident analysis (post-mortem), and automated resolution upon problem re-occurrence.


โ
The OptOSS AI GUI has undergone multiple changes to enhance ergonomics and convenience for daily operations. Key improvements include:

Periods where sensor data polling is unsuccessful or times out are now clearly indicated in the history view with a dashed line.

When a loaded archive is scheduled for deletion due to retention policy, the system now notifies the user in the GUI, prompting them to manually unload it. Deletion from the system will only occur after the archive has been successfully unloaded from the online storage in the database.
โ
The network protocol audit logic has been enhanced with a static route audit plugin, allowing OptOSS AI to use static routes to discover peering routers. For both static routes and external BGP peers, we have introduced the concept of "partner." Importantly, a peer discovered over these two protocols is added to the device inventory list only when explicitly allowed by the OptOSS AI administrator.
โ
In addition to the features listed above, this release includes numerous stability improvements, performance optimizations, and issue corrections across the platform.
