ExtraHop today announced a suite of new features designed to streamline the
secure adoption and implementation of IoT in the enterprise. ExtraHop
Reveal(x) now provides advanced discovery, classification, and behavior
profiling for enterprise IoT devices, providing visibility from the device to
the service layer. These latest enhancements extend Reveal(x) capabilities to
the enterprise IoT device edge, providing complete visibility, detection, and
response across the attack surface without the need to implement narrow point
solutions.
IoT reduces operational friction, making businesses more
efficient and employees more productive. But this comes at a cost. IoT moves
computing power to the edge, vastly expanding the enterprise attack surface,
and without visibility into what devices are connecting to the network and what
resources they are accessing, it leaves organizations vulnerable to threats.
With the latest release, ExtraHop Reveal(x) now provides the
visibility, detection, and investigation capabilities security and IT
organizations need to continuously secure and manage expanding IoT deployments.
- Continuous Device
Discovery and Classification discovers, identifies, and profiles all IoT devices
and services to deliver complete visibility without friction to IT and
Security Operations teams.
- Device Behavior
Profiling extracts
rich L2-L7 data from network and cloud traffic, enabling deeper analysis
across devices at the service level. When paired with cloud-scale machine
learning from ExtraHop, this data is correlated with other network events
to rapidly and accurately detect threat patterns for immediate response.
This provides organizations with continuous behavioral monitoring and
detection for IoT devices such as VoIP phones, printers, IP cameras,
wearables, and smartboards.
- Guided Investigation automatically gathers
contextual information, related detections, and packet level details into
a single workflow to streamline and accelerate response actions, enabling
security analysts and threat hunters to quickly determine the impact and
scope of an IoT event and easily drill into forensic level details.
- IoT Security Hygiene helps security and IT
operations teams address issues such as IoT devices and services using
unencrypted communications, and when discovered, can automate response
actions with other systems like creating a ticket or isolating devices on
the network.
"We believe that enterprise IoT is a strong fit for
ExtraHop's network detection and response solution. Not only do we discover the
presence of IoT devices, identifying make and model, but we also automatically
segment into peer groups to detect suspicious behaviors and potential
threats." said Jesse Rothstein, CTO and co-founder at ExtraHop.
"Reveal(x) enables organizations to truly understand the level of risk a
device poses and provides situational awareness of the environment."
Enterprise IoT Security features are now globally available
with ExtraHop Reveal(x) platform.
