Governments are benefiting in a number of ways from the Internet of Things (IoT). To fully take advantage of IP-enabled devices, such as medical devices in federal healthcare agencies, sensor-monitored building facilities for power conservation, and smart meters used by utilities, these devices must be secured. Ordr provides a purpose-built platform that secures the entire device lifecycle so governments can become more productive and efficient with IoT.
IoT Devices
Medical devices, smart displays and monitors are used to improve healthcare, enhance employee productivity and deliver citizen services, and must be secured.
Building Automation Systems
IoT devices are used to save energy, optimize lighting, or provide physical access in government buildings. These devices can be compromised and become attack vectors.
Fleet Management Systems
Governments perform real-time tracking of their supply chain network and assets using network-enabled sensors and smart tags. These devices increase the attack surface.
Protect Against Attacks
IoT, IoMT and OT devices within government agencies can be used as attack vectors. Our platform discovers all devices with risks using our built-in intrusion detection engine and our Ordr Flow Genome device profiling. We identify vulnerabilities, active exploits and anomalous communication patterns. Use the Ordr Policy Generator to dynamically create segmentation policies that lock down high-risk devices.
Address Regulatory Compliance
An amendment written for the National Defense Authorization Act in 2019 prohibits the U.S. government from purchasing and installing Chinese-made surveillance cameras. Other governments around the world followed suit. We can identify devices no longer allowed in government networks by manufacturer, model, and serial numbers. Once these devices are discovered, we can trigger facilities or ITSM workflows to alert device owners to respond appropriately.
Secure Building and Operational Systems
Governments are embracing smart buildings with smart HVAC, surveillance, access control, and energy systems. We secure devices like BACnet controllers from compromise, ensuring that they do not become initial attack targets. Ordr Flow Genome and our Layer 2 and Layer 3 constellation mapping provide easy visualization of internal and external communications. By baselining communications patterns, we can create segmentation policies to lock down critical devices.
