Enabling IOT Connected World Through Cyber Security
While connecting Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices to your corporate network delivers clear benefits, it also exposes you to new cyber-threats. From IP cameras, and smart elevators, to medical devices and industrial controllers, IoT devices are inherently vulnerable and easy to hack. Many of these devices run on unpatched software, are misconfigured, or use unsecured communication protocols. Furthermore, organizations own extensive and diverse device inventories of multiple vendors, models, and functionalities, with many shadow un-managed devices (connected to the network without anyone’s knowledge).
​
It is time to take action and keep every device secure. It is time to secure IoT the same way we secure IT systems.
