ORDR + IRU

SOLUTION BRIEF

Securely supporting a hybrid and remote workforce has become a fundamental component of an organization’s cybersecurity strategy. As a result, mobile device management (MDM) solutions like IRU (formerly Kandji) play a critical role in managing all devices that access essential enterprise resources.

However, these managed devices cover only a small portion of all assets interacting with an enterprise network. With a rapid rise in the variety and volume of devices, every enterprise’s attack surface continues to expand. To effectively manage and secure all devices, security and IT teams need a centralized view of all devices and threats across their entire environment.

ORDR and IRU

ORDR delivers asset intelligence that spans every asset, with in-depth insights into its profile and context. The ORDR AI Protect platform automatically discovers and classifies every device, identifies risk, maps communications, establishes baseline behavior, and provides protection with automated policies. These capabilities, integrated with the IRU platform, enable organizations to easily identify all connected devices, uncover security gaps, prioritize vulnerabilities, and respond to threats quickly.

Security and IT teams can easily discover and secure every managed and unmanaged asset — from traditional IT to vulnerable IOT, OT, IOMT devices, along with users, applications, SaaS, and cloud on a single platform.

ORDR seamlessly combines and correlates managed Apple devices details and installed applications collected from IRU alongside ORDR’s own data sources to build true asset intelligence that can easily be turned into risk insights and remediation workflows.

Benefits of Integration with IRU

ORDR’s comprehensive asset intelligence combined with managed device details from IRU empowers organizations to:

Gain insights into all assets, agentless and agent-based, on premises and remote: Get centralized intelligence across all connected assets and operating systems – whether or not they can run an agent — including vulnerable IoT, OT, IoMT, and traditional IT devices, as well as users, applications, SaaS, and cloud – all on a single platform.

Detect security gaps: Uncover coverage and enrollment gaps including Apple devices that are unenrolled, misidentified, missing agents, associated with expired agents, or that are not reporting into IRU.

Prioritize vulnerability management: Leverage risk-based vulnerability insights to track and prioritize remediation for devices based on criticality and impact to organization.

Ensure corporate compliance: Get up-to-date device details to meet compliance and cyber insurance requirements, including device encryption status and the ability to lock down or remotely wipe compromised devices.

Automate risk remediation and mitigation: Automate workflows and segmentation policies for vulnerable assets that cannot be patched, or until patches and resources are available.

Accelerate incident response time: Speed up investigation and analysis with rich, accurate context necessary to contain suspicious activity quickly, including asset classification, device users, mapped events, and more.

How it Works

ORDR’s self-service ecosystem integrations are designed to be turnkey with minimal configuration and setup time, while enabling quick customizations to meet business needs.

Once configured to collect managed Apple device details and installed application from IRU, ORDR deduplicates, correlates, and analyzes all the data. It uses the additional data from IRU to enhance context for previously discovered devices, add details for any new devices, and identifies gaps in visibility and security.

ORDR’s deduplication engine ensures all asset data is accurate, whether discovered by ORDR or collected from IRU or other ecosystem tools. Additionally, the ORDR correlation engine ensures data from all the different sources delivers complete, meaningful, and actionable insights.

ORDR’s Device Data eXchange (DDX) engine offers the flexibility to determine whether to apply ORDR-detected device attributes by default, or prioritize and customize mapping rules based on information collected from IRU.

ORDR Ecosystem Integrations

ORDR integrates with industry-leading security, networking, infrastructure, IT, and clinical solutions to unify device details, enrich device context, and extend the value of your existing technology investments. Data from integrations is combined in the ORDR Data Lake to create the most complete and accurate view of every connected device across your whole organization. ORDR also enriches these solutions with accurate insights, making security teams more efficient, and cyber defenses stronger.

Frequently asked questions
How does ORDR complement IRU for unmanaged device discovery?
ORDR's AI-driven asset intelligence automatically discovers and classifies unmanaged devices that traditional MDM solutions like IRU cannot reach, including IoT and OT assets. This integration provides complete visibility across your entire hybrid environment by bridging the gap between managed endpoints and connected infrastructure.
What security risks do unmanaged devices pose that MDM alone misses?
Unmanaged devices often operate with outdated firmware, weak configurations, and unknown vulnerabilities—creating blind spots that pure endpoint MDM cannot detect. ORDR identifies these risks automatically, enabling security teams to classify devices and implement unified policies across IT, IoT, and OT infrastructure from a single platform.
Can ORDR and IRU work together for hybrid and remote environments?
Yes. The joint solution enables rapid device classification and unified security posture management across hybrid and remote work settings by combining IRU's managed endpoint control with ORDR's comprehensive asset inventory and risk assessment capabilities. This eliminates security gaps in distributed environments where traditional MDM coverage is incomplete.
