Elisity Release 16.14: Network Traffic Analytics That Actually Help You Make Decisions

Most security teams drown in raw network data. Flows, packet captures, logs—mountains of information with no clear answers. You see traffic but can't tell which vectors really matter. You spot anomalies but don't know if they're threats or just Bob from accounting doing something out of the ordinary. 

Release 16.14 fixes that problem. Our latest platform update turns unfiltered network data into actionable intelligence. 

Executive Summary Dashboard: Security Metrics CISOs Care About 

Release 16.14 introduces the Executive Summary Dashboard, the first of many new dashboards, built for security leaders who regularly provide progress updates on board-level security initiatives. Long gone are the spreadsheet archaeological expeditions across five systems to compile key metrics. 

Deployment progress across sites appears automatically. Policy effectiveness metrics, device coverage statistics, trend analysis—all right there. Want to show how microsegmentation shrinks your attack surface? Pull up the dashboard. Need metrics for your cyber insurance renewal? Same dashboard. Facing a regulatory audit? You get the idea. 
 
SOC analysts, CISOs, and board members all get exactly what they need. 

Augmented Analytics: Find What Matters, Fast  

Release 16.14 refines Traffic Analytics to expand behavioral visibility. Security teams find specific traffic patterns, policy gaps, or anomalies in seconds instead of minutes. 
 
Traffic Analytics now exposes communication between Policy Groups with an expanded field of view. You can spot patterns that shouldn't exist, and more rapidly confirm your least-privilege policies actually work. Managing thousands of devices—medical IoMT in healthcare, industrial OT in manufacturing, BYOD everywhere—requires this level of detail. Without it, microsegmentation stays theoretical. 

Picture this: A pharmaceutical manufacturer spots unauthorized traffic between production PLCs and corporate file servers. A hospital catches an infusion pump trying to phone home to suspicious external IPs. Attackers successfully use lateral movement in 70% of breaches. Release 16.14's analytics show your teams these patterns immediately, enabling them to create policies before one compromised device becomes a company-wide incident. 
 

Identity Intelligence That Scales 
 
Network traffic analytics mean nothing without context. Who owns that device? To what should it be communicating? Where does it live in your infrastructure? 

Release 16.14 expands the Elisity IdentityGraph™ integrations significantly, pulling in richer data about devices, users, and workloads across your attack surface. 

Microsoft Defender for IoT integration matters most for organizations managing operational technology and industrial IoT. Elisity now automatically pulls device inventory, vulnerability data, and other insights from Microsoft Defender for IoT sensors. Manufacturing facilities, utilities, industrial environments—places where OT security traditionally gets treated as an afterthought—now get the same policy precision as corporate IT. No separate tools. No manual device classification. Just consistent microsegmentation everywhere. 

ORDR integration brings similar advantages to healthcare. An infusion pump ceases being "unmanaged IoT device #4738" in your asset inventory. Now you see a specific model number with known CVEs, clinical usage patterns, all correlated automatically and available when you create policies. Healthcare security teams managing 50,000+ connected medical devices across multiple facilities require this level of automation to achieve microsegmentation at scale. 

Azure Entra ID integration addresses a major shift happening right now: enterprises moving from on-premises Active Directory to cloud identity management. As organizations modernize, Elisity tracks identity continuously whether users authenticate through traditional AD, hybrid environments, or fully cloud-native Azure Entra ID. Your microsegmentation policies follow users. Least-privilege access stays enforced as infrastructure evolves. 

Elisity IdentityGraph's real power shows up when user identity meets device identity. You don't just see that someone authenticated—you see exactly which device they're using, where it connects, what it's allowed to access, and how those permissions change based on who's logged in. One compromised credential can't move laterally because policies enforce both user AND device context simultaneously. 

Customer Feedback Drives Development 

 
Release 16.14 demonstrates our commitment to rapid innovation. We ship meaningful updates every few weeks to get urgently needed capabilities now instead of making you wait for years. 

Case in point: Customer onboarding checklist. Security teams told us that deployment status across the organization was not clear. We built a guided workflow that walks administrators through setup, integration, and policy deployment with clear progress milestones. Challenge reported. Challenge solved.  
 
Security landscapes shift constantly new device types, evolving attacks, changing regulations. Software that ships updates every few weeks adapts faster than platforms that release major versions once a year. 
 
What You Get Right Now 
 
Security leaders at manufacturing firms, healthcare systems, utilities, and large enterprises face constant pressure to prove security improvements while managing sprawling, complex environments. Release 16.14 delivers specific answers to those challenges. 
 
You get visibility that actually explains what's happening. Policies that match real-world communication patterns. Deployments that produce board-ready proof of value in hours instead of weeks.
