FastNetMon Launches Netomics, Self‑Hosted BGP Intelligence Platform Eliminating Third‑Party Lookups
What Happened – FastNetMon announced Netomics, a self‑hosted BGP routing intelligence platform that aggregates live BMP feeds, IRR data, RPKI validation, routing history and AI‑assisted queries. The solution runs entirely on‑premises, giving ISPs, cloud providers, IXPs and large‑scale enterprises full ownership of routing data without relying on external lookup services.
Why It Matters for Compliance & Audit Readiness
- SOC 2 control mapping (CC6.1 – Network Security, CC6.2 – Change Management) requires verifiable, internal evidence of routing decisions; Netomics creates a single source of truth that can be continuously logged.
- Eliminating third‑party services reduces exposure to supply‑chain or data‑leakage risks, simplifying vendor‑risk assessments and supporting audit‑ready documentation.
- Integrated APIs and Prometheus metrics enable automated evidence collection for continuous‑compliance dashboards.
Who Is Affected – Internet Service Providers, Cloud Service Providers, Internet Exchange Points, and enterprises operating large IP networks.
Recommended Actions –
- Map Netomics data feeds to SOC 2 network‑security controls and define evidence collection procedures.
- Incorporate Netomics logs into your continuous‑compliance platform to demonstrate ongoing control effectiveness.
- Update vendor‑risk registers to reflect the removal of external routing‑lookup services.
