5 Key IoT Capabilities to Look for in a Networking Solution
This guide outlines the networking capabilities needed to manage growing numbers of inherently vulnerable IoT devices. Complete visibility should include each device’s type, manufacturer, firmware, and known vulnerabilities. Automated onboarding and network access control help headless devices enter the correct security segment without user intervention. Because many embedded systems cannot be patched immediately, virtual patching and compensating controls are needed to reduce exposure. Compromised devices should be isolated automatically in a restricted environment to prevent lateral movement. Automation across discovery, onboarding, protection, and quarantine reduces administrative burden and helps IT teams scale. Together, these capabilities allow organizations to benefit from connected
