LATEST INTELLIGENCE PRESENTED BY DEVICE VISIBILITY: THE KEY TO REDUCING RISK AND IMPROVING YOUR SECURITY POSTURE SIX WAYS TO ENHANCE SECURITY WITH 100 PERCENT DEVICE VISIBILITY Download whitepaper here Securing network infrastructure continues to grow more complex by the day. This complexity is driven by the phenomenal growth of IoT devices, platform diversity, cloud adoption and IT and OT convergence. The vast majority of new devices joining your networks aren’t designed to support management agents – creating a serious visibility and risk gap. And this gap further widens as cloud computing extends to the furthest corners of the distributed network. Of course, what you can’t see can kill you. You need a way to discover devices whether they have agents on board or not, whether they’re physical or virtual – regardless of where they’re located. You also need continuous, real-time monitoring and the ability to profile and classify devices the second they attach to your network. Closing this visibility gap is the most effective way to achieve a positive impact on your network security and risk mitigation efforts. • 20 INTELLIGENTCIO www.intelligentcio.com
