Our need for access to networked information goes well beyond emails, file sharing, and web surfing in today’s high ops tempo environment.  Missions depend on networked devices that monitor temperature and humidity levels in Command and Control data centers, control flow of JP-8 to flight-line refueling pits, broadcast telemetry streams from satellites and launch vehicles, and feed doctors with real-time patient vital signs.  No matter the mission, success depends on knowing who and what gain access to your network and continuously monitoring the good guys to make sure they stay that way.  But this can’t be achieved using yesterday’s technologies.  Learn how today’s technology lets you detect every IP addressable device on your network the second it connects without an agent, then immediately builds a real-time database of contextual information about every device.  Learn how you then intelligently enforce security and compliance policies based on this contextual information, continuously monitoring devices for unexpected behavior, blocking and quarantining rogue devices, all while enabling policy compliant devices to accomplish your mission.  Learn how automation can manage tasks and work-flows of existing security, management and compliance tools already on your network, making them – and you -- more effective and efficient.  Take the next step in cybersecurity and learn how you can automate your needs today and secure your network tomorrow in the Internet of Things.
