Defend your most critical infrastructure, with thousands of OT-specific threat indicators and powerful anomaly detection, through a platform that enables organizations to act on identified risks and detect cyber threats before they lead to operational downtime. Forescout eyeInspect is built to meet the strict requirements of OT (ICS + SCADA) networks. It has a full library of specific protocols and vulnerabilities that are prominent throughout the OT world and is completely passive by nature but has the capability for active querying and automated response with Forescout eyeControl where applicable.
Forescout eyeExtend helps you improve your security posture, enforce compliance, and increase SecOps efficiency by automating security processes and response across 3rd party products you've already deployed. Forescout has formal integration with many large cybersecurity companies today; these include Palo Alto, Splunk, ServiceNow, CrowdStrike, Microsoft, Trellix, Tenable, and many more. Forescout eyeExtend also has a secondary license called eyeExtend Connect which allows users to design their own integrations using Forescout's Python scripting interface and open API. This can be further utilized to custom make integrations or download other community made apps in the Forescout Github. Either way, Forescout wants to augment every security tool you already have in place, rather than replace it.
Forescout Cloud contains two main components designed to augment your existing Forescout deployment or be a standalone offering for XDR and REM. Forescout XDR is an extended detection and response solution that converts telemetry and logs into high fidelity, SOC-actionable probable threats. Forescout Risk and Exposure Management (REM) is a comprehensive asset intelligence solution that provides the foundation for understanding the security posture of your attack surface, through risk-based prioritization and persistent asset intelligence. Both combined provide complete cyber risk assurance and streamlined workflow for any SOC incidents.
Forescout eyeSegment enables segmentation across your entire enterprise to address your multi-domain use cases and help you meet compliance, regulatory, or internal needs. Eliminate enforcement silos, and disparate policy enforcement by visualizing real-time traffic, unifying policies and by orchestrating remediation. Forescout eyeSegment also provides a fast start to Zero Trust by allowing you to visualize how and where your network segmenetation rules should be implemented. Everything in eyeSegment is simulated based on pre-defined policies you establish in the Forescut cloud instance. Once that is done, you can easily flip the switch and make those policies go live by importing the rules into Forescout eyeControl for enforcement.
Forescout is a leading provider of cybersecurity solutions, specializing in Zero Trust implementations to secure modern enterprise networks. In today’s dynamic cyber landscape, where traditional perimeter-based security models fall short, Forescout offers a comprehensive approach to Zero Trust security. Forescout’s platform enables agencies to build a rock-solid foundation for Zero Trust by delivering total visibility into connected assets, enforcing least privilege network access and ensuring compliance across multi-vendor environments. By adopting a security design approach based on NIST SP 800-207 standards, Forescout empowers enterprises to achieve Zero Trust without the need for costly infrastructure replacements.
Forescout’s platform is indispensable for agencies embracing the Zero Trust Model. It provides unparalleled visibility into all IP-connected devices across the diverse enterprise segments, including campus, data center, cloud and operational technology (OT) environments. Leveraging integration capabilities with switches, routers and wireless controllers, Forescout enables dynamic network segmentation and real-time threat response. Moreover, Forescout’s platform facilitates seamless collaboration with third-party security and IT management tools, ensuring granular policy enforcement, comprehensive compliance and continuous endpoint control.
Forescout eyeSight provides comprehensive device visibility and inventory of every IP-address endpoint on your network; this includes IoT, OT, and IoMT devices. Visibility is considered a foundational component of Zero Trust and especially important for the Device Pillar in Zero Trust. Forescout was chosen as the leader in visibility by the DoD for the Comply to Connect Program. They have unmatched visibility by integrating with every part of your network and utilizing over one hundred different techniques to fingerprint devices. Forescout eyeSight then provides hundreds of data points about every device which allows you to further control what devices you want or don't want on the network based on compliance information, crucial to proper Zero Trust implementation.
Forescout eyeControl provides granular host based and network based actions to block unauthorized devices, patch vulnerable devices, or quarantine guest devices. Forescout eyeControl gives users the abiltiy to remediate devices based on compliance issues or block unauthorized devices to reduce the chance of a breach. Lastly, eyeControl gives users a bunch of actions that they can select on a per-policy basis and the actions range from notification, to remediation, and even restriction. All of this is super important for Zero Trust as device control and remediation are key components within the pillar.
Forescout eyeExtend provides two separate forms of licensing for integrations with other existing cybersecurity investments: eyeExtend Connect and eyeExtend Ecosystem. eyeExtend Connect allows a user to download community made apps using open API and python scripting; it also provides the ability for an individual to make their own custom integrations. eyeExtend Ecosystem provides access to Forescout designed integrations with hundreds of different security solutions. Each integration provides bi-directional capabilities where Forescout can share its device information and take action based on triggers from other products. As a result, these integrations offer expanded automation in any environment which is a foundational piece of Zero Trust.
Forescout eyeInspect provides visibility for OT systems which is a crucial component for Zero Trust within the Device Pillar. OT or ICS / SCADA devices are very different than a traditional IT device like a server or computer. They utilize unique protocols, are usually legacy systems, and are very crucial to business operations so can't be taken down for patches or heavily scanned since it can overload the system. Forescout eyeInspect provides passive based and optionally active based protocol detection and traffic ingest of OT systems and utilizes that data to showcase traffic flows and plot vulnerabilities. It also provides alerts of attacks that might be happening in real time so a SOC team can properly respond and ensure that even critical infrastructure can be subject to Zero Trust requirements set forth in the Device Pillar.
Forescout eyeAlert is an extended detection and response solution that converts telemetry and logs into high fidelity, SOC-actionable probable threats. It automates detection, investigation, hunt for and response to advanced threats across IoTs, IoMTs, OT/ICS, and IT devices. All the functional capabilities of a modern SOC are rolled into the platform along with AI reporting to keep any team up to speed. Correlation of logs and reducing threats from the 1000s down to the top 10 most important alerts is crucial for any organization today while responding to active attacks. Zero Trust is all about assuming breach and constantly monitoring the environment while having tools to swiftly respond. Forescout eyeAlert provides those capabilities across the Device and Automation Pillars.
Forescout eyeFocus provides Risk and Exposure Management (REM) which is a key requirement in the Zero Trust Device Pillar. This comprehensive asset intelligence solution provides a foundation for understanding the security posture of your attack surface, through risk-based prioritization and persistent asset intelligence. With this solution, you get situational awareness of the cyber risk associated with every asset, and the ability to accelerate incident response for the msot vulnerable devices first. This not only enhances compliance assessment and remediation but also helps with automation, all of which are key characteristics for Zero Trust.
