IPAM

In the face of a rising tide of network infiltration attempts via increasingly diversified attack vectors, enterprises must constantly remain vigilant and proactive in managing system monitoring and attack detection solutions. Whether you realize it or not, IP address management (IPAM) plays a key role within your overall network security strategy. Core IPAM functions, including tracking IP inventory, allocating address space, monitoring network access through DHCP and discovery, and various DNS security tactics not only serve as requisite network functions but are critical to your network security strategy. As the sophistication of attacks continues to spiral, defensive strategies including IPAM must likewise evolve to keep pace if not outpace nefarious exploitation of network and system vulnerabilities. The concept of zero trust networks , originally posited by Forrester Research a decade ago, is rising in prominence as a fundamental network security approach within enterprises, acro

The Internet of Things or "IoT" refers to the evolution of the Internet beyond connectivity and interaction among traditional user-operated devices like PCs, tablets, phones and similar types of devices into the realm of connectivity and interaction with non-user operated devices such as sensors, monitors and remotely controllable devices. Internet-enabling such “unmanned” devices allows them to autonomously report events, updates, status changes, or to perform remote actions commanded by users or other devices via the Internet. The popularity of home assistants, security systems, video doorbells, thermostats, door locks, etc. evinces the continuing expansion of IoT devices within residences.  IoT also boasts exceptional growth prospects for all types of industries such as utilities, energy, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, educational institutions, municipalities, and others. This enterprise realm of IoT is referred to as the industrial IoT , or IIoT, where sensors, monitors,
