The Challenge: We’ve Connected Everything, But Can’t Control It
Modern smart buildings have evolved into complex ecosystems of interconnected assets that underpin the daily operation of diverse environments from skyrise office buildings and warehouses to data centers and critical infrastructure. These assets span IT, OT, and IoT systems, encompassing everything from HVAC, lighting, and elevators to sensors, meters, and access controls. While the integration of these systems has delivered unprecedented efficiency and insight, it has also introduced extraordinary complexity and risk. The challenge is compounded by the coexistence of legacy and modern, often unmanaged devices, making it difficult to maintain accurate inventories or fully assess cyber exposure and risk. In leased facilities or third-party environments like datacenters, this complexity deepens, as landlords and tenants pursue different priorities: owners seek to protect physical infrastructure, while tenants focus on securing their digital estate and intellectual property. This, in turn, creates silos, gaps in visibility, and barriers to effective collaboration.
Organizations today face fragmented and incomplete asset inventories, devices running outdated firmware or with unverified configurations, forgotten or unsanctioned connections and fragmented telemetry and maintenance data. Onboarding and governance processes are often inconsistent across sites, creating silos that prevent cohesive oversight. The result is limited control over the estate and delayed action, meaning stakeholders can’t govern systems properly because they can’t secure complex systems they don’t understand.
