Nyansa Raises The Bar For IoT Analytics And SecurityPALO ALTO, Calif., April 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Nyansa, ("knee-ans-sah"), a fast-growing innovator of AIOps solutions, today unveiled Voyance IoT, the industry's first comprehensive AI-based solution to integrate IoT security and device performance analytics within a single platform. Voyance IoT automatically classifies, secures, and analyzes the behavior of IoT devices from end-to-end across enterprise wired and wireless access networks.
As organizations deploy non-traditional networked devices to address business critical initiatives, they face new challenges of how to codify and control the behavior, performance and security of these devices. For instance, connected infusion pumps, EKG machines, and smart temperature sensors in healthcare; smart robots, connected tools and barcode scanners in manufacturing and distribution, and even esoteric connected devices such as smart lights, speakers, digital frames, 3D-printers, etc. in any industry. These modern IoT devices create unique threats that differ from other connected devices, rendering traditional security tools ineffective. Voyance IoT represents a new approach to IoT operational assurance that leverages sophisticated AIOps technology to help IT, cybersecurity, and line of business proactively address key issues triggered by IoT, including:
"Companies are spending billions on new non-traditional connected devices to drive specific business outcomes and need assurance that they are achieving the highest possible return on these investments as well as the peace of mind of knowing unmistakably, that these systems are secure," said Abe Ankumah Co-Founder and CEO of Nyansa. "With Voyance IoT, Nyansa is addressing these pressing industry performance and security concerns on a proven AIOPs platform that has become the de facto standard for big data IT analytics." Currently the world's largest enterprise edge AIOps platform deployed by hundreds of enterprises, Voyance today analyzes the end-to-end behavior of more than 20 million end devices. The benefits of thisvast data combined with threat intelligence feeds yield unique value to all Voyance customers. BEYOND BASIC IOT SECURITY As the industry's only vendor-agnostic analytics solution, Voyance goes beyond simple security to give IT, cybersecurity, and line of business owners rare insight into IoT operational assurance. This includes asset inventory, connectivity, performance and root cause analysis, vulnerability management, risk assessment, and policy compliance. It also helps organizations extend their cybersecurity programs by aligning its core features to the NIST 800-53 and ISO 27K Cyber Security frameworks. Voyance IoT now allows enterprises to automatically inventory and classify IoT devices, employing a machine learning based, hierarchical device classification system that uses the detailed behavioral signature of each detected device. Beyond automatic classification, customers are also afforded the flexibility of tagging critical devices and assets for continuous analysis within the Voyance IoT security lifecycle management framework. Once identified, customers immediately have detailed knowledge of every single IoT device in their environment, where they are located and their level of use. They also gain insight into problematic devices that are having any kind of issues connecting to their application with insight into the root cause of the issue. All IoT devices are fully characterized with an historic baseline of their 'normal' behavior. If an abnormality is detected, Voyance IoT seamlessly integrates into a customer's cybersecurity workflow via their SIEM or other security operations system. This allows customers to enact corrective action directly within Voyance as such quarantining, revoking access, or other customer defined actions through direct integrations to their existing infrastructure. With patented cloud-native technology that provides anonymized insights for all customers into their IoT devices' global behavior and threat data, Voyance IoT allows our customers to compare device behavior to other anonymous Voyance customers to gain objective answers to questions surrounding IoT performance and security. By uniquely analyzing IoT data in full context with all other infrastructure data, IT staff can now proactively find and fix performance issues, automatically identify potential threats and actively enforce policies to ensure the highest levels of security without having to purchase and deploy disparate IoT point products that represent yet another vendor IT tool to master. A RICH SET OF INTEGRATIONS The Voyance AIOps platform includes an extensive set of vendor and technology integrations, allowing customers to get the most out of their existing infrastructure and software investments.
PRICING AND AVAILABILITY Available immediately, Voyance IoT is offered as a public SaaS or private cloud solution and priced on annual subscription basis, based on the number of network nodes under observations within the Voyance platform. Starting at $16,000/year for a one-year subscription, Voyance IoT is a completely agentless and software-only service requiring zero changes to existing network infrastructure. Current Nyansa customers receive Voyance IoT for a limited number of devices at no cost. ABOUT NYANSA The company is credited with developing the first full-stack, vendor-agnostic device performance analytics cloud platform called Voyance. With Voyance, organizations are able to automate the performance analysis and security of critical infrastructure device, services and applications to improve user productivity and device performance, security and compliance across wired/wireless access networks. Customers include Tesla, Uber, Stanford, Texas Children's Hospital, Lululemon, Home Depot and others. Media Contact David Callisch
