Bear Security
Proactive Device Protection ServiceThe Connected Device Security Problem
Enterprises have expanded from server and desktops into a massive ecosystem of smart printers, routers, cameras and IoT devices. Existing security for this new generation of connected devices is disjointed, ineffective, static, complex and unable to scale to the level of these massive new systems. In addition, most security is limited to encryption, which is unable to provide the full stack of protection required by these increasing intelligent devices.
Not only lack of central management, but no concept of management
Security is tightly coupled with applications, so changes cannot be made without disruption
Multiple types of communication, so different security must be used for each (enterprise is relatively simple, because it’s all Ethernet)
Current options for security (repurposed from enterprise) are too resource intensive — architected to “call home” to do everything
Reporting without capability to respond (existing tools depend on an ecosystem to support response; new systems do not have this)
Static systems can’t update security, respond to attacks or adapt to changing requirements
The Bear Solution
Unified, full-cycle communications security solution for connected devices that is invisible to apps and systems. Bear’s key features include:
Centrally managed and distributed enforcement model
Bear is invisible and independent of apps and systems
Visual device management (see a problem fix a problem). Visualizing problems reduces complexity and allows organizations to utilize existing resources
Unified – works across all types of communications
Purpose-built
for connected devices
Enables dynamic updates of embedded systems without changing firmware
