Central Operations Dashboard
We rethink IT
Central Operations Dashboard (COD) as the central control system.
Our aim is to turn a fragmented jungle of systems into an intelligent, unified solution.
We rely on integration instead of replacement: existing systems in your IT infrastructure stay in place and are meaningfully complemented by our Central Operations Dashboard (COD).
COD connects your existing components in a vendor-independent way and creates a central, clear control and monitoring layer – without intervening in your existing system landscape.
Who should use COD?
Mid-sized and large enterprises
When your IT consists of many systems, vendors and tools, COD creates clarity.
Whether network, security, monitoring, backup or maintenance planning – COD brings all information together in a single central interface.
The goal: less system chaos, more oversight and control.
Corporate groups, enterprises and organizations with multiple sites
COD is fully multi-tenant capable – ideal for companies with branch offices, subsidiaries or distinct areas of responsibility.
Each tenant stays logically separated, while the central dashboard provides an overall view.
Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT service providers
Anyone managing multiple customer networks needs control, efficiency and security.
With COD you manage multiple customer environments in parallel and keep track of assets, maintenance, backups and system states – all centrally and role-based.
Why should you use COD?
Central control
Keep your entire IT infrastructure in view – from network to assets to maintenance and backup.
COD consolidates all systems, sites and vendors in one central dashboard, ensuring maximum transparency and oversight.
Vendor independence
COD works with a wide range of systems and vendors – without restrictions or lock-in.
Whether Cisco, Allied Telesis, Extreme or Aruba: your infrastructure stays flexible, scalable and freely combinable.
Efficiency & security
Reduce administrative overhead, avoid tool silos and increase operational reliability at the same time.
With clear roles, automated processes and central documentation, your IT becomes measurably more efficient and secure.
Complement instead of replace.
We integrate your existing IT system and extend it with our Central Operations Dashboard (COD) – for a seamless connection of your existing infrastructure.
<Every module gives you a little more freedom>

Architecture & scalability
Multi-tenant & multi-site
- Multi-tenant capability: Logical data separation for MSPs and holding structures
- Central view: Manage multiple customer networks or sites in parallel.
- Role-based: Dynamic permission management at user level (LDAP/AD integration).


Operational workflow
Calendar & to-do – integrated maintenance planning.
- Maintenance windows: Schedule downtimes directly on the asset.
- Task management: Kanban view for operational tasks.
- Resource planning: Avoid scheduling conflicts.

Network visibility
See the invisible – in real time.
- Layer 2 & 3 topology: Automatically generated, interactive maps
- Live status: Visualization of physical connections and routes.
- Client overview: Endpoint location down to the switch port.

Access control & gatekeeping
NAC & captive portal
- Network Access Control (NAC): 802.1X and MAC authentication.
- Dynamic VLANs: Automatic assignment of security zones.
- Captive portal: Time-controlled guest access and BYOD management.
- Heartbeat: Keep network devices alive.
- Baramundi: Automatic integration of Baramundi assets.

Firewall operations
Multi-vendor management & access
- Multi-distribution: AIMdefense, OPNsense, pfSense and more in a single interface.
- Direct access: SSH access (including via jump host) or web admin without hunting for credentials.
- Maintenance: Central update management and certificate monitoring
- Zone management: Management of firewalls in defined zones including their aliases

Resilience & Backup
Automated security for configurations
- Config backups: Automatic for switches, firewalls, Linux/BSD systems.
- Disaster recovery: Fast recovery in the event of outages.
- Audit compliance: Complete audit logs of changes.
- Version comparison: Config backup version comparison.

OTP: secure & flexible authentication
One-time passwords for increased security and access control
- The problem: Static passwords are vulnerable to theft and phishing. In IT departments, sharing them is also problematic.
- The solution: OTP (One-Time Password) provides an additional layer of security. The COD OTP module enables central management without manual sharing.
- Integration: Our system generates OTP tokens centrally and grants access to the OTP only to the respective authorized users, which increases security.

Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC)
Digital risk management following BSI standards
- Risk matrix: Digitalization of risk assessment (impact vs. likelihood)
- Asset link: Linking risks to assets.
- Compliance: Management of policies and threat catalogs.

Vulnerability Management (VAS)
Proactive detection of vulnerabilities
- Continuous scanning: Continuous checking of assets for CVEs.
- Scoring: Automatic risk assessment per asset.
- Remediation: Identify critical gaps before they escalate.
Bring your systems, vendors and sites under one interface – with the Central Operations Dashboard (COD) from extocode. Gain clear oversight, greater efficiency and maximum control over your infrastructure.
