Hardware Asset Visibility

Hardware asset visibility is critical in today’s expanding IT environments, where the number of physical devices continues to grow. Without accurate visibility into your hardware assets, managing them effectively, and securely, becomes nearly impossible. Overlooked devices can lead to policy violations, compliance issues, and exploitable vulnerabilities.

Take control of your endpoint and network security with comprehensive hardware asset visibility that extends down to the physical layer, Layer One. This level of insight ensures that every device, whether authorized or rogue, is detected and continuously monitored. With complete hardware asset visibility, you eliminate blind spots, fortify your security defenses, and reduce the risks associated with unmanaged or unauthorized devices.

Complete Hardware Asset Visibility

Sepio’s Asset Risk Management (ARM) platform utilizes patented technology to provide comprehensive Hardware Asset Visibility through physical layer fingerprinting. With ARM, you can accurately identify and track all devices within your network, ensuring no asset escapes detection. Whether it’s a legitimate device or an unauthorized one, you can confidently enforce security policies and significantly reduce risks.

Why Hardware Asset Visibility Matters?

Conventional network security measures, such as Network Access Control (NAC), Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), and IoT security scanners, often fail to detect threats at the Physical Layer. Devices like unmanaged switches, passive taps, and out-of-band equipment can easily bypass traffic-based security systems, remaining undetected. Even more troubling, spoofed devices can mimic legitimate hardware, effectively sidestepping existing security protocols.

Hardware asset visibility at the Physical Layer is essential for true network protection. Without this level of insight, your infrastructure remains vulnerable to cybercriminals and sophisticated, targeted attacks that are designed to bypass traditional security measures.

The Benefits of Hardware Asset Visibility

Hardware asset visibility is essential for securing today’s networks. By providing insights at the physical layer, it enables organizations to ensure that only authorized devices interact within their systems, significantly enhancing overall security. From hardware identity verification to advanced access control, hardware asset visibility forms the foundation for a robust, zero-trust network.

  • Hardware-Level Visibility: Ensures only authorized devices are involved in business activities within a zero trust network by collecting Layer 1 data from all peripherals, known and unknown.
  • Hardware Identity Management: Uses metadata to verify hardware identities through physical and electrical data, ensuring only trusted devices access secure systems.
  • Hardware Access Control: Makes cyber risk-based access decisions and detects rogue or impersonating devices, often leveraging machine learning for enhanced security.

Why Choose Sepio’s Asset Risk Management (ARM) Platform?

Sepio’s Asset Risk Management (ARM) platform provides unmatched Hardware Asset Visibility into the Physical Layer of the OSI Model, protecting against network implants, rogue devices, and other Layer one threats. What sets Sepio apart is its non-intrusive approach. During deployment, Sepio refrains from probing network traffic or using discovery protocols, ensuring no monitoring of proprietary data. This makes the implementation process seamless and efficient while significantly reducing the threat of employee negligence.

With Sepio, you can optimize your security efforts, minimize the costs associated with potential breaches, and empower your employees to remain your greatest asset. Trust Sepio for unparalleled protection at the physical layer, elevating your overall cybersecurity posture.
