The NDR: A Complete and Passive Inventory


Inventorying the assets connected to a network is essential for ensuring effective cybersecurity. Unlike traditional security solutions that can be intrusive, NDR adopts a passive approach that inspects network traffic to create a complete inventory of both known and unknown assets while mapping their interactions. This visibility is particularly important for identifying attacks and detecting critical elements like patient zero, especially among unmanaged assets, often hidden or part of the Shadow IT.
