Exposing the threat of shadow devices

There has been a massive explosion in the number of devices connecting to enterprise networks, with three-quarters of all organisations having more than 1,000 business devices connecting on a typical day.

But over a third of companies also report more than 5,000 non-business devices connecting to the network each day. This opens enterprise networks up to the risk of malware infection, hacking and worse.

This whitepaper explores the challenges that shadow devices present to an organisation’s IT team and how to tackle them, from security policies and site restrictions to improving visibility.
