The growing deployment of IoT devices across the enterprise creates many challenges for CIOs and IT Managers. These challenges include complex connectivity and device management, vulnerability to security risks and threats, rigid operator lock-in contracts and lack of network visibility and control.
With so many entry points to protect, vulnerabilities are impossible to spot as quickly as they occur. In the last few years alone, IoT enterprises have dealt with the consequences of massive data breaches and attacks via IMSI catchers that use fake cellular antennas, DoS attacks via IoT devices, location tracking, DNS attacks, and more. Enterprises may have hundreds of thousands of devices - and it all starts with just one.
