Network Segmentation
Accelerate Zero Trust segmentation across IT, OT, and IoT — without agents, without network redesign.
Flat, under-segmented networks let threats move freely — expanding the blast radius across IT, OT, and IoT. Most segmentation tools force a tradeoff: workload-only coverage, agent dependencies, or solutions that stop at the IT boundary. eyeSegment eliminates that tradeoff. Forescout’s agentless device intelligence discovers and classifies every connected device — managed, unmanaged, and headless — so policies are built on what devices actually are and the risk they carry, not just where they sit on the network.
Why Forescout for Dynamic Network Segmentation
See everything first. Design with confidence. Enforce without risk to your production environment.
A Core Tenet of Universal Zero Trust Network Access
Segmentation is a foundational control for UZTNA, restricting access to only what each device needs and isolating vulnerable assets before they can be exploited. The Forescout 4D Platform™ discovers and classifies every connected asset without agents, giving eyeSegment the device identity and risk context needed to build policies that adjust dynamically as your environment changes.
Built for Hybrid IT, OT, and IoT Networks
Most segmentation tools were built for IT and stop there. eyeSegment covers your entire device estate agentlessly across IT, OT, and IoT, so no asset operates outside your segmentation policy.
Flexible. Versatile. Rapid Deployment.
