Unknown and unmanaged device discovery

Unknown devices are found and identified as they appear, not at the next audit.

  1. 01

    Challenge

    Devices appear on the network that nobody registered: a contractor's laptop, a new camera, a forgotten test server, a rogue access point.

  2. 02

    What WireTrace sees

    First-seen devices, the names and identifiers they present, the applications they use and who they talk to.

  3. 03

    What WireTrace understands

    What the new device is likely to be, with confidence, and which existing peers and zones it touches.

  4. 04

    What WireTrace decides

    New or unexpected devices are raised for review, with their evidence and their first communications.

  5. 05

    Integration / action

    Notification by email, syslog or webhook; the device's identity and risk are available to the NAC through the API.

  6. 06

    Outcome

    Unknown devices are found and identified as they appear, not at the next audit.

See it on your network.

A WireTrace evaluation runs on a mirror port, on your infrastructure, and shows your own devices, communications and risks.
