Banking on Security

In this report, we will address the aforementioned questions using data that Forescout Technologies has carefully gathered, tested and validated from all forms of device networks and the applications they support. This report presents data from a cross-sectional analysis of the Forescout Device Cloud, which is a repository of host and network information for more than 11 million devices (provided anonymously by Forescout customers). With Forescout Device Cloud, we analyze device fingerprints to identify device function, vendor/model, operating system and version to provide granular auto-classification for a wide range of devices. For this study, researchers limited Device Cloud analysis to 100 large financial services deployments with over 8,500 virtual local area networks (VLANs) and nearly 900,000 devices.
