Beyond Security, the leading provider of automated security testing solutions2 and Reposify, a leader in cyber-sensing solutions for networks and IoT today announced that they have partnered to bring a cohesive solution to the amplifying threat of vulnerable IoT devices across networks globally. From smart home sensors to manufacturing field devices, Internet connected devices have populated the world of computing affecting both cloud and on-premises deployments and posing an omnipresent threat to the security of networks and devices by expanding the attack surface areas. In the absence of universally accepted standards for IoT security, the probability of their use as backdoor to breach critical data has increased.
The combined solution will discover IoT devices, their characteristics, related associations and list as well as prioritize the vulnerabilities to eliminate or minimize their attack surface. Mapping discovered devices regardless of their locations or role and applying appropriate security policies is necessary to mitigate the risk of DDoS attacks and data breaches. It is imperative that the approach be scalable, deployable in real-time and provide as much insight into the nature of online devices as possible.
“Our partnership with Reposify provides a valuable security posture service to any organization that deploys Internet of Things given that in the current climate, it is nearly impossible to patch all vulnerable devices,” said Aviram Jenik, CEO and co-founder of Beyond Security. “We are pleased to partner with BeyondSecurity to enhance our vulnerability assessment capabilities and keep our customers safe; combined solution will provide the answer for enterprises and governments who suffer from attacks and data leakage due to infected devices,” said Yaron Tal, founder and CEO of Reposify.
