What's shaping the future of network monitoring in 2025? A window into network monitoring preferences across the world reveals a convergence of business, technology, and societal shifts. With new technologies like generative AI stepping into the spotlight, the question remains: how will it shape network monitoring? And, is Site24x7 ready for the future? Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are transforming the way we think about network monitoring.

In today’s dynamic network environments, where countless devices—ranging from laptops and smartphones to IoT sensors and smart appliances—connect and communicate, efficient IP address management is critical. Ensuring each device receives the right configuration not only optimizes network performance but also improves visibility and control. However, identifying these devices accurately can be challenging, given the diversity of operating systems, hardware, and vendors.

Password protection is the first line of defense to maintain the security of your network and its shared resources. With password-protected sharing, you control who can access your files, printers, and other devices within your network. This approach ensures that only authorized users with valid credentials can connect to your shared content, adding a layer of defense against unauthorized access.

Azure VNet flow logs significantly improve network observability in Azure. Compared to NSG flow logs, VNet flow logs provide broader traffic visibility, enhanced encryption status monitoring, and simplified logging at the virtual network level enabling advanced traffic analysis and a more comprehensive solution for modern cloud network management.
