AssetXpert for continuous network assessment—including security!
Hello Cisco Partners,
I am excited to share that we made a significant upgrade to AssetXpert by integrating Netformx Discovery and Netformx AssetXpert™ into a single SaaS solution that automatically scans, maps and analyzes networks to detect vulnerabilities for IT Consultants and MSPs.
Networks are changing all the time. Feature and security updates, new assets or those going obsolete, and frequent network configuration and segmentation changes all make network and security management a moving target.
Unfortunately, cyber threat actors are targeting end-of-life network hardware and software. So it’s critical to keep SMB systems up to date, have a clear understanding of the network environment, and quickly know where to mitigate threats. To secure and manage the network you need an ongoing accurate view of it, which can be challenging without continuous remote access.
Who benefits from the new AssetXpert for multivendor network assessments?
- IT Consultants can upgrade to a more robust Discovery solution in the cloud to automatically discover your customer’s actual network to create a baseline, identify technology refresh opportunities, conduct health checks, compliance reporting etc. with enriched data.
- MSPs will provide better customer service using this innovative cloud combination of sophisticated discovery, network maintenance, and a focus on security to keep networks secure and high performing.
- Current AssetXpert users that focus on managing renewals and asset inventory can add AssetXpert’s ongoing network discovery to understand where assets may be nearing End-of-Life, or to identify upsell or expansion opportunities.
