Ivanti, a technology company focused on bridging IT and security for the Everywhere Work environment, has introduced Ivanti Neurons for App Control, a solution designed to protect devices from unauthorized applications. Alongside this, Ivanti also unveiled new analytics within the Ivanti Neurons platform and enhanced features for Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management, aimed at improving security and ensuring compliance. With these innovations, Ivanti empowers organizations to proactively manage their security exposure and navigate the increasingly complex threat landscape.
“These advancements reflect our commitment to delivering comprehensive and innovative solutions that help organizations better manage their cyber risks,” said Ivanti.
As IT ecosystems expand rapidly, organizations are facing larger and more complex attack surfaces. According to Ivanti research, over one-third of IT professionals feel less prepared to detect and respond to threats than they were a year ago. To stay ahead of evolving threats, organizations must focus on managing their exposure and maintaining control over applications.
Ivanti Neurons for App Control is a key component in preventing malware and zero-day attacks by blocking unauthorized applications. By verifying file ownership and applying granular privilege management, the solution stops unapproved applications from running, ensuring a secure environment. Its cloud-based architecture allows remote management of endpoints, even those outside the corporate network.
In addition to Neurons for App Control, the Ivanti Neurons platform offers several innovations for proactive exposure management:
Enhanced customization and reporting:
Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management introduces a new reporting engine that automates and streamlines reporting to align with regulatory standards, reduce non-compliance risks, and simplify the audit process. The deploy-by-risk feature allows administrators to define more targeted criteria for remediation tasks, ensuring a faster response to threats.
Increased visibility with new analytics:
Ivanti Neurons now includes actionable analytics, providing teams with critical KPIs to optimize IT and security operations. Features include a customizable dashboard designer and ready-to-use device and patch deployment reports.
“In today’s rapidly changing threat landscape, organizations need visibility and control over their applications and endpoints,” said Dr. Srinivas Mukkamala, Ivanti’s Chief Product Officer. “With the launch of Ivanti Neurons for App Control and updates to our existing solutions, customers gain the tools needed to proactively defend against threats, ensure compliance, and make informed decisions to strengthen their security posture.”
