Ivanti, the tech company bridging the gap between IT and security to foster an Everywhere Work environment, has introduced Ivanti Neurons for App Control, a solution that protects devices from unauthorized applications. Alongside this, Ivanti has also launched new analytics features within the Ivanti Neurons platform and updates to Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management, enhancing both security and compliance. These innovations, focused on exposure management, enable organizations to proactively safeguard themselves in today’s increasingly complex threat landscape.
“These enhancements highlight our commitment to providing comprehensive and innovative solutions that help organizations effectively manage their cyber risks,” said Ivanti.
As organizations experience rapid growth in their IT ecosystems, their networks become more expansive and complex, increasing potential attack surfaces. Ivanti research indicates that more than one-third of IT professionals feel less prepared to detect and respond to threats compared to a year ago. In today’s evolving threat landscape, proactive exposure management and application control are critical for staying ahead of escalating risks.
Ivanti Neurons for App Control plays a pivotal role in preventing malware and zero-day attacks by blocking suspicious and unauthorized applications. Through file ownership validation and granular privilege management, the solution ensures only authorized applications are executed, maintaining a secure environment. Its cloud-based architecture allows for remote endpoint management, even for devices outside the corporate network.
In addition to Neurons for App Control, Ivanti Neurons offers several new innovations to enhance proactive exposure management:
Enhanced customization and reporting:
Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management now includes a new reporting engine that automates and streamlines reports, ensuring alignment with regulatory standards and mitigating non-compliance risks. The improved deploy-by-risk customization feature allows administrators to set more precise remediation criteria, enabling rapid responses to potential threats.
Increased visibility with new analytics:
New actionable analytics across the Ivanti Neurons platform equip IT and security teams with critical KPIs, helping optimize operations and decision-making. The updates include a customizable dashboard designer and ready-to-use reports for device and patch deployment.
“In today’s rapidly changing threat landscape, visibility and control over applications and endpoints are essential,” said Dr. Srinivas Mukkamala, Ivanti’s Chief Product Officer. “Our release of Ivanti Neurons for App Control, along with recent updates to our platform, provides customers with the tools they need to proactively defend against threats, ensure compliance, and make informed decisions to improve their overall security posture.”
