The firewall can now collect metadata to detect and identify devices on your network and obtain recommendations on how to secure them so you can know what devices are connecting to your networks and use them as match criteria to create adaptive device-based policy rules. In environments with an increasing demand for “bring your own device” (BYOD) support and as more IoT (Internet of Things) devices connect to networks, detecting and securing these devices becomes increasingly difficult. By correlating network events with specific devices and providing actionable insights about them, Device-ID can quickly identify the source device for network incidents and help you create a responsive and comprehensive security policy.
