Device Compliance<\/h1>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Continuously monitor and enforce compliance of all connected things<\/h3>\n

There\u2019s no gray area when it comes to cybersecurity compliance. To hackers and regulators, partial compliance is noncompliance. Vulnerable platforms, unpatched devices and default credentials expose your network to substantial risk of a breach, unwanted downtime, and regulatory fines \u2013 heightened by the increase in unmanaged devices, digitalization and a transient workforce.<\/p>\n

Device Compliance Challenges<\/h2>\n

Most IT teams lack the ability to assess, in real time, all asset types, both managed and unmanaged, to confirm they comply with their organization\u2019s security framework.<\/p>\n

\"Agentless<\/p>\n

Reliance on Point-in-Time Scans of Some<\/em> Assets\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Outdated, point-in-time compliance snapshots limited to agentable devices leave you exposed.<\/p>\n

\"Alert<\/p>\n

Inability to Apply Controls & Enforce Compliance\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Lack of information impedes ability to police unmanaged, unpatched, potentially infected or rogue devices.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Incomplete Documentation Leads to Failed Audits<\/h3>\n

If you achieve asset compliance but can\u2019t document it, you\u2019re still subject to audit failure.<\/p>\n
