Forescout Network Security solutions leverage synergies between network access control, security, and Zero Trust to create a holistic, compliant, and data-centric framework for the business. This approach reduces attack surfaces and aligns with cybersecurity best practices, including highly-regulated industries.
Our next-gen network access control offers a comprehensive, flexible, and non-disruptive approach that provides essential capabilities for enterprises to maintain robust security postures and implement Zero Trust principles effectively.
Forescout’s Network Security Solutions, including Network Access Control, provide unified visibility and control over all network assets, ensuring effective cybersecurity monitoring, threat detection, and incident response. In addition, the solution integrates with IT tools, ticketing systems, and SIEM to deliver coordinated threat responses and automated remediation actions, which support an adaptive approach to Zero Trust.
Asset discovery and inventory capabilities use active and passive techniques to maintain complete visibility of all IP-connected assets, including IoT/OT devices. The Forescout Device Cloud, with over 12 million device fingerprints, provides high-fidelity device classification, ensuring coverage across all locations and device types without blind spots.
Forescout ensures least privileged access by dynamically assigning devices to appropriate VLANs or applying access control lists based on predefined policies. Agentless controls enforce these policies without requiring software installations on devices.
Continuous monitoring and validation of connected devices allow Forescout to dynamically adapt access privileges and automate threat responses based on behavior, posture, or compliance deviations. Non-compliant assets are automatically subjected to the correct security policies.
These capabilities enhance access control by managing who can access different network parts and when. This function supports the principle of least privilege and helps analyze network traffic from a dynamic zone perspective, informing planning, deployment, and automated policy enforcement. Network segmentation also restricts traffic flows between assets, reducing the potential blast radius of threats.
Forescout’s next-gen network access control helps you create a foundation for implementing Zero Trust principles from any starting point to align with business resources and budgets. Forescout Network Security Solutions also integrate with existing IT and security tools, such as Microsoft Azure, ServiceNow, CrowdStrike, and Palo Alto, enabling content sharing, automated workflow orchestration, and comprehensive response measures. This supports the enforcement of Zero Trust principles by ensuring only authenticated, compliant assets access the network.
