With the evolution of technology, network activities have increased excessively. Many day-to-day tasks are intertwined with the internet to function. On one level of the infamous OSI model, the data exchanged between devices is broken down into smaller units and transmitted in the network in the form of packets. These packets contain information that is useful for investigators and network administrators for analysis and troubleshooting purposes.

Security teams rely on vulnerability scanners to proactively locate vulnerabilities in network devices, hosts, and applications. These tools help improve the overall security posture of the network by remediating exposure before bad actors have an opportunity to exploit it. Although incredibly helpful, the data delivered by these tools is often overwhelming and not presented in an actionable manner.

Behind every important business process is a solid network infrastructure that lets us access all of these services. But for an efficient and available network, you need an optimization framework to maintain a strong network lifecycle. It can be carried out as a lifecycle process to ensure continuous monitoring, management, automation, and improvement.

When I joined Forescout as CEO six months ago, I was excited to partner with our strong employees, management team and board as we take the company through its next phase of growth. Today I’m pleased to announce enhancements to the Forescout® Platform that will help customers fully understand the risk posture of their attack surface and enable their security teams to focus on remediating the assets that pose the most risk.
