Network Security<\/h1>\n

Discover, assess and enforce the compliance of all connected assets.<\/h3>\n

Today\u2019s enterprise networks combine traditional IT devices with smart IoT sensors and OT assets that interact with the physical world to generate business value. This growth in connected assets increases the attack surface and creates new network blind spots where cyber risk goes unchecked.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s time to rethink your approach. Learn more in our Five Steps to Combating Emerging Threats with Network Security ebook.<\/p>\n

Where Traditional Network Protection Methods Fall Short<\/h2>\n

\n62%<\/h3>\n

Of organizations don\u2019t have a complete inventory of their IoT\/OT devices.1<\/sup><\/p>\n

\n75%<\/h3>\n

Of organizations report widening visibility gaps in end-user and IoT assets.2<\/sup><\/p>\n

\n35%<\/h3>\n

Of organizations had IoT\/OT devices targeted directly or as part of a larger attack.1<\/sup><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not uncommon for organizations to have multiple asset inventories in their ecosystem of IT and security tools. But even when combined through lengthy manual effort, they rarely cover the entire attack surface due to their overlapping coverage of managed assets.<\/p>\n

Many organizations rely on traditional software agents to monitor and protect the endpoints on their networks. But smart IoT sensors and industrial process controllers can\u2019t support agents, creating blind spots that are targeted by attackers.<\/p>\n

Waiting on scheduled scans to sweep the network for rogue or at-risk devices allows attackers to infiltrate without being noticed. Some forms of active scanning can even disrupt OT assets that monitor or control critical business processes causing financial, reputational, and even physical harm.<\/p>\n

What Does ModernNetwork Security Look Like?<\/h2>\n

\"Compound<\/p>\n

Continuous Compliance Assessment<\/h3>\n

Assess the security posture and compliance of every managed and unmanaged asset in real-time without installing software agents, and even fix missing, broken, or out-of-date security agents among your existing ecosystem of tools.<\/p>\n

learn more<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Real-Time<\/p>\n

Modern Network Access Control<\/h3>\n

Continuously monitor all connected assets across heterogenous networks for noncompliance or unusual behavior and govern access to the enterprise-wide network infrastructure, through flexible and dynamic network access policies.<\/p>\n

learn more<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Vendor<\/p>\n

Dynamic Segmentation Management<\/h3>\n

Visualize traffic flows between groups of assets and design dynamic segmentation policies that enforce least privilege access to shrink the attack surface without impacting your operations.<\/p>\n

\"manually<\/p>\n

Automate Cybersecurity Workflows<\/h3>\n

Share asset identity, configuration and security details with your existing ecosystem of security and management systems to automate workflows across disparate tools, accelerating system-wide response to risks and threats.<\/p>\n
