Your SIEM tool is lighting up with hundreds of alerts – a security event is taking place. Now you must locate and isolate the affected device, determine the severity of the threat, and take steps to remediate the issue. Where do you start with so little data about the potential incident? All you have to work with is a MAC or IP address, and determining what devices are impacted, their geolocation, and affected users require extensive manual effort.
Lansweeper automatically and continuously discovers IT assets across your infrastructure — servers, laptops, desktops, virtual machines, operating systems, software, and other assets deployed on your network — to create an always-accurate, up-to-date IT asset inventory with detailed and granular IT asset data. Through seamless integrations, Lansweeper automatically enriches the information your SIEM tool provides in an alert – no phone calls, emails, or manual investigations necessary – so you have the answers you need in seconds and can jump into action to stop an attack fast before it spreads.
No matter how effective your SIEM tool is at bringing a security incident to your attention, it’s up to you to determine whether the alert is a false alarm or a serious threat. While your organization’s CMDB tool is a good starting point for finding the information you need, it only offers a subset of IT asset data. Often, this information is stored in Excel spreadsheets that are out of date almost as soon as they’re completed.
With Lansweeper, you gain instant access to always-accurate, up-to-the-minute data to make informed decisions and take appropriate action. Security teams can pinpoint affected devices, locations, and users in seconds, align priorities with potential business impact, and prioritize the most critical issues.
When a cyber-attack strikes, every second counts. Armed with detailed information from Lansweeper about the IT estate, IT security teams can isolate infected and vulnerable devices, rapidly deploy the necessary updates and patches, and automate essential incident response and remediation processes, saving time and overhead. Such automation not only saves time and lowers costs, it significantly reduces time to incident resolution and helps to minimize the lateral spread of a cyber attack.
Lansweeper should be everywhere, we layer tools on top of it, including our endpoint security solution, DLM, SIEM and ingress/egress security monitoring tools.
To avoid costly fines and reputational damage, your organization must comply with increasingly strict industry, legislative and governmental regulations such as SOX, HIPAA, PCI and others. Lansweeper enables security teams to enrich their documentation with granular IT asset data in an automated fashion, eliminating hours of manual recordkeeping and reducing the risk of human error. Security analysts can leverage this data to understand how an incident or attack occurred, and strengthen the organization’s overall security posture.
When every second counts, having all the information you need at your fingertips empowers you to act quickly and resolve a security event before damage occurs. But alerts typically come with minimal information – a MAC or IP address won’t arm you with the data you need to protect your organization. Lansweeper integrates seamlessly with leading SIEM and SOAR tools, including Splunk ES, Palo Alto Cortex XSOAR, IBM QRadar, MSFT Sentinel, Splunk SOAR, and more, significantly reducing deployment times and minimizing the need for customization.
