Endpoint & IOT Device Discovery

Pulse Profiler delivers real-time visibility, insight and tracking of endpoint and IOT devices

Security Starts with Visibility

90% of companies are unaware of the endpoint and IoT devices connected to their networks.

Discover, inspect and track endpoint & IOT devices through real-time network discovery. Documenting managed endpoints and their security posture, and uncovering unsanctioned, at risk and rogue devices is the first step in any network security program.
Gain continuous monitoring and mitigation of endpoint and IOT devices employing a variety of methods including DHCP, SNMP, NMAP, WMI, SSH, EMM and HTTP session details.
Capture and make use of detailed identity, device type, configuration, UEBA and compliance attributes. Enable custom classification of endpoint and IOT devices to further ensure operational intelligence.

You Can’t Secure What You Cannot See

90% of Companies Aren’t Aware of What’s Connected to their Networks

Most organizations believe they know what’s connected to their network, but they are usually off by as much as 30%

How Are Network Devices Behaving
Unmanaged, unsanctioned and rogue endpoint and IoT devices pose security risks. Gaining real-time visibility of network devices reduces the chance that an at risk device can be used as a jump point for a cyberattack.

Know What Devices are Doing On Your Network
Understand the behavior of BYOD, IoT, and unknown network devices. Identify open ports and malicious systems. Collect real-time and historical endpoint data to capture your security posture, refine policy and close security gaps.

Do you have Continuous Profiling?
Security and IT operations teams are required to monitor and actively respond to device issues, security incidents and anomalous behavior. Continuous network profiling of unmanaged, non-compliant and rogue devices yields operational oversight.

The unknown endpoint can be used as an entry vector for cyberattack

Profiler uncovers at risk devices, so they can be managed and secured

FIND
Discover network connected devices and establish operational visibility. Rogue and unmanaged endpoint devices outside of management purview and can be susceptible to compromise and data leakage.

PROFILE
Gain and benchmark endpoint attributes including operating system version, device type, patch levels, applications, location, behavior and more. Understand and refine device security standards and endpoint compliance adherance.

CONTINUOUS INTELLIGENCE
Real-time monitoring of changes in endpoint profiles and device behavior. Efficiently respond to discrepancies and exposures on critical and unknown endpoints.

Discover the Unknown

Security Starts with Visibility

Continuous Device Visibility
Discover, examine, and track all known and unknown BYOD, IoT, and user endpoints. Whether on-premise, off-premise, or in the cloud, no device remains hidden when employing Pulse Secure Profiler. Planning a continuous cadence of device discovery supports a proactive security approach to enforcing endpoint security policy and protecting business critical applications from insecure devices.

IoT Device Discovery
IoT device sprawl can intensify quickly and outgrow IT support capacity. The task of discovering, securing, and managing a vast contingent of IoT devices is simplified through device profiling. Visibility of IoT devices through Pulse Secure Profiler allows IT to control sprawl by tracking each as they connect to the network.
