New \u201cRiskiest Connected Devices 2025\u201d Report Finds Retail Industry Has Highest Average Device Risk Followed by Financial Services, Government, Healthcare, Manufacturing<\/em><\/p>\n

San Jose, Calif, April 9, 2025 \u2014<\/strong>\u00a0Forescout<\/a>, a global cybersecurity leader, today announced the availability of the new Forescout eyeScope\u00ae<\/sup> cloud visibility and monitoring solution<\/a>, expanding the Forescout 4D Platform\u2122 to the cloud. Forescout also announced a new, small footprint, edge data collector for enterprises that require Forescout\u2019s industry-leading asset intelligence capabilities managed from the cloud for streamlined deployment and faster time to value.<\/p>\n

Forescout\u2019s asset intelligence and control for managed, unmanaged, and agentless devices has never been more essential. As the latest \u201cRiskiest Connected Devices in 2025<\/a>\u201d report from Forescout \u2013 Vedere Labs shows, the enterprise device landscape is becoming much more complex and more dangerous, with the average device risk per industry increasing by 15% year-over-year. The report\u2019s findings highlight that network-connected devices, from traditional IT operating systems to specialized healthcare systems and OT machinery, are exposing organizations to damaging threats such as ransomware attacks and data exfiltration. The industries that face the greatest risks are retail companies followed by financial services, government, healthcare, and manufacturing.<\/p>\n

Forescout eyeScope provides network, security and incident response teams with a consolidated, up-to-date view of their device landscape with classification, connection, and compliance context through a cloud-enabled solution that can be installed in a fraction of the time compared to traditional solutions.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing able to protect an enterprise from cyber-attacks starts with understanding what devices and exposure you have in your network.\u00a0Our research shows that many mid-sized and large enterprises still have blind spots and rely on a mix of third-party solutions that don\u2019t give a complete, consolidated asset inventory\u201d said Barry Mainz, CEO of Forescout. \u201cForescout eyeScope is the first step an enterprise needs to take so that they can gain comprehensive visibility into all of their devices and take the necessary steps to prevent unauthorized applications, or peripheral devices are negatively impacting their security posture\u201d.<\/p>\n

Key features of Forescout eyeScope are specifically designed to help enterprises gain operational efficiencies and key insights to the current state of their organizational risks and take immediate action to mitigate prioritized threats, including:<\/p>\n
