DATA CENTERS
Secure every xIoT device across the modern data center
The state of data center security
Rapidly expanding infrastructure.
Unprecedented device diversity.
Critical operational risk.
Modern data centers rely on hundreds of connected operational systems — from power and cooling to rack monitoring and facility infrastructure.
Traditional security tools lack visibility into data center infrastructure—leaving critical systems exposed and unmanaged.
35% of data center UPS devices are vulnerable to attack.
70% of xIoT devices ship with default manufacturer credentials
46% increase in ransomware attacks on OT/IoT devices from 2024 to 20251
Why data centers are hard to secure
Modern facilities rely on a complex mix of infrastructure systems and operational devices. These assets often fall outside traditional IT visibility, creating blind spots that attackers can exploit.
From distributed sites and vendor‑managed systems to outdated firmware and weak credentials, security teams struggle to maintain consistent control across the environment.
Unknown devices
Many xIoT assets are invisible to traditional security tools.
Weak credentials
Default and weak passwords increase attack risk.
Outdated firmware
Legacy firmware leaves devices vulnerable to known exploits.
Insecure configurations
Insecure device settings create unnecessary operational and security risk.
Unsupported devices
End-of-life and end-of-support equipment introduce operational and compliance risk.
Expired certificates
Expired or self-signed certificates can lead to operational disruption.
