Manufacturing - Cybersecurity Asset Management

Strengthen Manufacturing Cybersecurity
with Real-Time Asset Management.

Between medical devices, electrical components, or robotics, manufacturers rely on more networked devices to optimize operations and logistics. With a variety of regulations looming or in place, manufacturers are more frequently conducting risk assessments and audits to ensure security controls are in place.

Yet it’s difficult for many manufacturers to get real-time information about the state of all assets, including unmanaged IoT devices and cloud assets. Without knowing the state of any asset of any given time, it is very difficult to complete audits, report security metrics, and strengthen security posture.

The Axonius Cybersecurity Asset Management Platform helps manufacturers:

Identify all IT assets — including unmanaged IoT devices that frequently enter and leave internal networks
Unify cloud assets across all major providers to identify misconfigurations and policy lapses
Automatically tag devices when they meet certain criteria (i.e. region, functional owner, or data processed)
Provide a single source of truth for any device to help IT and helpdesk teams resolve issues

How Axonius Helps

Apply Continuous Controls Monitoring to All IT Assets Processing Intellectual Property

With heavy M&A activity and dynamic IT environments, security and IT teams at life sciences companies don’t always have clarity on the cyber health of all assets. And the rise of connected ICS and OT devices and cloud computing makes it even harder to account for all devices — whether on-premise, virtual, or in the cloud.

Security teams at biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and medical device companies need a unified, real-time asset inventory to defend IT assets against nation-state actors looking to steal intellectual property and research.

Axonius helps life sciences companies ensure security controls are applied to all devices, cloud instances, and user accounts to minimize cyber risk in dynamic IT environments.

Ensure Full Data Loss Prevention Deployment & Validation

Engineering companies spend significant resources deploying data loss prevention platforms on devices. But without a complete understanding of all IT assets that process sensitive information, it’s difficult to maximize the efficacy of data loss prevention platforms.

Axonius correlates and normalizes asset data, empowering industrial and civil engineering companies to monitor the deployment and effectiveness of all security controls, including data loss prevention.

Monitor & Secure Cloud Instances

While vehicles and aircraft are now vulnerable to cyber attacks, securing manufacturing facilities remains a primary challenge for IT and security teams. Aerospace and automotive companies have rapidly built many applications in the cloud to speed up production lines. But investment in the cloud also means instances are often misconfigured or don’t meet security best practices.

Axonius helps aerospace and automotive companies identify misconfigurations and policy lapses across all major cloud IAAS providers.

“We want to be aware of everything that is on our network and know that it is configured in a proper manner. Axonius helps us ensure that, by being able to aggregate all our data sources and then see if a device is improperly configured.”
