RETAIL AND HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY
Enhance the customer experience and maintain a secure, compliant xIoT environment
With the proliferation of smart devices and connected technologies in the retail and hospitality sectors, businesses are increasingly integrating xTended Internet of Things (xIoT) devices to enhance customer experiences and streamline operations. However, these devices, ranging from connected point-of-sale systems to smart hotel room controls, contribute to an ever-increasing attack surface.

The Challenge
Retail and hospitality businesses must be able to identify all their connected devices, from POS terminals, printers, and Building Management Systems to IP cameras and door controllers, and secure them – efficiently and at scale – against the most significant IoT and OT device vulnerabilities, including:
Unknown Asset Inventory
Default Credentials
Out-of-Date and Vulnerable Firmware
Risky Configurations
Banned and End-of-Life Devices
Expired of Self-signed Certificates
BEST-OF-BREED CPS PROTECTION PLATFORM
