Forescout CounterACT® 8 customers can now take advantage of a new, highly scalable VMware® vSphere® integration for their extremely large VMware vSphere environments. This integration is delivered with CounterACT Hybrid Cloud Module 1.1.0 which is generally available today.
With Forescout CounterACT, enterprises can extend visibility and control from the campus to private and public clouds—all with a single pane of glass. Hybrid cloud security becomes a logical extension of how organizations secure servers alongside managed, unmanaged and IoT devices in the physical world. The Forescout platform helps improve security and compliance of physical and virtual assets, regardless of where they reside, using your customers’ existing security teams and processes.

- Manage large vSphere-based environments with support for up to 2 million virtual machines within a single Forescout deployment
- Enhanced scan performance to quickly discover a large number of virtual machines in minutes
