Syxsense

Syxsense, a global leader in automated endpoint and vulnerability management solutions, is proud to announce it has been recognized as a Sample Vendor in two Gartner reports, the Hype Cycle for Endpoint and Workspace Security, 2024 and the Hype Cycle for Digital Workplace Infrastructure and IT Operations, 2024 in the Unified Endpoint Security (UES) category. The Hype Cycle for Endpoint and Workspace Security, 2024 “aids security and risk management leaders in identifying technologies to bolster endpoint and workspace protections,” while the Hype Cycle for Digital Workplace Infrastructure and IT Operations, 2024 mentions, “End-user services leaders can use this Hype Cycle to evaluate enabling digital workplace technologies.”

Unified endpoint security is a comprehensive approach to managing and securing all devices – clients, servers, and mobile devices – regardless of where those devices are located. According to the Hype Cycle for Digital Workplace Infrastructure and IT Operations, 2024, “Unified endpoint security (UES) is an architectural strategy that integrates endpoint management and security teams, workflows and tools. Integration fosters faster time to respond and remediate, while addressing the underlying causes of security issues. UES relies on capabilities from two key endpoint technologies — unified endpoint management (UEM) and the endpoint protection platform (EPP). It integrates with mobile threat defense (MTD) features that co-exist increasingly in endpoint tooling.”

Syxsense pioneered a unified endpoint security approach by offering security vulnerability scanning alongside endpoint management capabilities back in 2020. Beyond traditional IT management capabilities, patch scanning, and patch deployment, Syxsense solutions can also scan for security risks, such as open ports, disabled firewalls, security policy violations like using weak passwords, and non-compliant devices. By providing all these capabilities within one solution, IT and security operations teams can find and fix IT and security vulnerabilities faster. This streamlines workloads, improves efficiency, and reduces enterprise risk.

“Most vulnerability management tools are scanners only. They will scan for security risks and produce a static report that isn’t actionable,” said Ashley Leonard, CEO and Founder of Syxsense. “With Syxsense, because of our unified endpoint security approach, vulnerability scan results can be remediated with the click of a button. SecOps teams don’t need to download a file, send it to IT Ops, wait for IT Ops to find the endpoints with the issues, then try to fix the vulnerabilities. Gartner’s acknowledgment of Syxsense in these Hype Cycles is exciting for our team, given our continued belief in the need for greater collaboration and streamlined operations across IT and Security departments.”
