Security Vision's ‘Chips’: building an ecosystem

Roman Dushkov, Security Vision

We continue publishing the series ‘Security Vision's “Features”’. This article is dedicated to the platform mechanisms that contribute to the formation of a unified IT ecosystem in the company.

Built-in mechanism for inventory and collection of information on assets

Security Vision's own unique agentless network scanner helps scan the customer's entire network and categorise devices by type (Linux and Windows hosts/servers and other devices). Integration with other inventory tools helps build an overall and more detailed picture of the customer's infrastructure.

Create connectors without having to wait for vendor updates

External systems can come and go, fail, or change their internal algorithms affecting integrations. Therefore, it is important to remain flexible and vendor-independent.

When creating connectors to third-party systems in the Security Vision platform, you don't have to wait for the vendor to release a patch or a new version of the system: a special low-code tool is supported for creating new mechanisms and adapting existing ones. It can be used by employees without knowledge of programming languages.

One Mail connector for two tasks

Mail is the main corporate communication channel, often used for alerts. In the Security Vision platform, the Mail Connector can be used for alerts and for ‘reading’ incoming messages. It allows to automatically process requests and start processes after receiving an email from any employee of the company, not only to notify IS/IT administrators about events.
