Network Asset

Discovery

In today's hyperconnected industrial and healthcare environments, the explosion of networked assets – from corporate laptops and cloud workloads to manufacturing sensors and medical devices – has dramatically expanded attack surfaces. Organizations need comprehensive visibility into every user, workload, and device accessing their networks to effectively protect critical operations and sensitive data. Without this foundational insight, security teams cannot implement effective controls or contain potential threats.

Challenges

Today's enterprises struggle with fragmented and outdated asset inventories scattered across spreadsheets, CMDBs, and multiple security tools. Network teams lack real-time visibility into unmanaged and ephemeral devices, while security teams can't effectively track user access permissions or monitor traffic patterns. This limited visibility creates dangerous blind spots that leave organizations vulnerable to lateral movement attacks.

Lack of Continuous Discovery

Organizations can't track the constant flow of new devices joining their networks. Ephemeral and unmanaged devices appear and disappear without detection.

Complete Asset Discovery

Elisity's IdentityGraph™ automatically discovers and tracks every device that appears on your network in real-time. Continuous monitoring ensures no device goes undetected.

Fragmented Inventories

Device data lives in multiple outdated spreadsheets, CMDBs, legacy asset discovery tools, and disconnected security tools. Teams lack a single source of truth for asset inventory.

Limited Device Context

Networks provide basic device information and most network asset disovery tools,  miss critical context about device type, purpose, and behavior. Teams can't effectively classify or group devices.

Network Asset Discovery FAQ

Want to know how Elisity discovers every device across your network — even the ones your current tools miss? Here are answers to common questions about asset visibility, classification, and what makes Elisity’s approach unique.

Why is comprehensive asset discovery important, and how does Elisity achieve it?

You can’t secure what you can’t see. Elisity’s IdentityGraph™ continuously discovers and tracks every user, device, and workload across your network in real time, even detecting unmanaged or ephemeral assets. This unified visibility ensures no asset is overlooked and closes blind spots attackers could exploit.

Our asset inventory is piecemeal across spreadsheets and tools. Can Elisity provide a single source of truth?

Yes, Elisity consolidates and enriches asset data from your existing tools into one unified view. Instead of scattered spreadsheets, you get an up-to-date inventory with rich context (device type, identity, behavior) in the Elisity Cloud Control Center. This single source of truth gives security teams instant, accurate asset information.

Do we need agents or new appliances for Elisity to discover assets on our network?

No, Elisity deploys without new agents or hardware sensors. It leverages your existing network switches to identify devices, providing full visibility with zero additional footprint or network changes. This means faster deployment with no disruption.

We already use an agentless security tool for asset discovery—what extra value does Elisity add?

Elisity goes beyond basic device visibility by integrating identity context and enforcing security policies network-wide. It can complement your existing tools, turning device insights into actionable, dynamic microsegmentation policies.
