Sepio delivers automated risk mitigation at scale, translating verified device identity into policy enforcement and actionable remediation.
Most Zero Trust programs still start with an unsafe assumption: they trust the identity of a device based on what that device reports or what an inventory system says. This creates dangerous blind spots, especially with unmanaged, dormant, or spoofed hardware, where attackers can impersonate trusted assets and slip past traditional security controls.
When device identity cannot be reliably verified, Zero Trust remains a theoretical concept rather than an operational reality. The result is a set of critical network security risks:
Blind Spots at Layer 1 (Physical Layer): Unverified or rogue devices can appear as legitimate devices, bypassing security entirely because nothing validates their real, physical identity.
NAC/EDR Evasion: Traditional network security tools focus mostly on software and network layers, leaving a critical blind spot at the hardware level. Because device identity is easy to manipulate, attackers can change how a device “appears” on the network. This allows rogue or malicious hardware to blend in as trusted assets.
Internal Attacks: Insiders or threat actors with internal access can connect unauthorized hardware.
Sepio delivers the missing foundation of Zero Trust by validating devices based on what they physically are, not what they claim to be. Using physical‑layer metadata, Sepio generates a unique Hardware AssetDNA™, revealing impersonation, spoofing, and hidden risks that traditional cybersecurity tools cannot detect.
Verified device truth: Sepio uses physical-layer metadata to generate Hardware AssetDNA™, validating what a device is and exposing impersonation and hidden risk.
Automated risk mitigation: Convert risk into action with policy‑driven controls to contain, block, isolate, or escalate using verified identity and context.
Complete asset coverage: Continuously discover authorized, unmanaged, and hidden assets, so governance and compliance are based on reality, not assumptions.
Effective integrations: Scale Zero Trust by integrating with your security and IT Asset Management stack, providing trusted data to streamline response and remediation.
Sepio provides valuable insights into our asset inventory, helping us better manage devices and plan their lifecycle.
