BT, which operates in the Middle East, has announced the launch of BT Managed Endpoint Access Security.
\nThis is a new security service protecting organisations from cyber threats and malware through greater visibility and better monitoring of devices connected to their corporate network.
\nThe new service leverages technology from ForeScout Technologies Inc., a leading Internet of Things (IoT) security company, to provide real-time agentless visibility and control of devices connected to corporate networks.
\nThis includes managed, unmanaged, private devices, Bring Your Own Devices (BYOD) and IoT.
\nForeScout\u2019s agentless approach to network security provides real-time discovery, classification, assessment and monitoring of devices allowing end-customers to see what is on their network, from campus to cloud, and to securely manage it.
\nForeScout can also orchestrate a policy-based security enforcement operation, with leading IT and security management products to automate security workflows and accelerate threat response.
\nDavid Stark, vice president, Security portfolio at BT, said: \u201cOur global reach and our experience in providing the entire range of cybersecurity services make us a partner of choice for organisations all over the world.
\n\u201cBy bringing ForeScout\u2019s technology into our portfolio, we extend our ability to protect organisations against the latest threats through improved visibility and control. Whether it\u2019s protecting a head office or a branch site, adding the ability to monitor just about any device connected to the network offers a much required additional layer of security to companies moving into the digital world.\u201d
\nTodd DeBell, vice president of Global Channels, ForeScout, said: \u201cWith more devices connecting to enterprise networks than ever before, the attack surface is expanding exponentially. Staying ahead of the game is an on-going effort for any organisation. ForeScout\u2019s relationship with BT will bring additional reassurance to CIOs and CISOs looking for improved security and better orchestration, while allowing us to tap into BT\u2019s extensive global reach.\u201d \t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
