Title: Network discovery tool in Beta now available.
Post by: Infratech Solutions on September 06, 2021, 11:53:50 AM
Keeping track of all devices connected to your customer’s network is an overwhelming task for any IT service provider. However, it’s a key part of capacity planning and security. Just one single, unprotected device can cause a cyberattack. This is where a Network discovery tool comes in handy.

We’re excited to introduce a new tool in the Business Hub that allows you to gain full visibility of all devices on your customer’s network, so you know exactly what you are managing. After all, you can't manage what you don’t know. The Avast Business Hub’s free Network Discovery tool lets you easily discover your customer’s IT networks and remotely deploy Avast Business security services to their devices in minutes.

Keeping track of your customers’ networks has never been easier with the Avast Business Hub!

Benefits:

Network visibility: Easily discover devices connected to your customer’s network to get a complete picture of what needs to be protected in order to keep your customers safe.
BYOD and Intrusion: Allows you to keep track of your customer’s unauthorized devices on their network.
Remote software deployment: Remotely deploy any Avast Business security service (antivirus, patch management, cloud backup) to supported Windows devices.
Onboarding new customers: Gives you insight into exactly what’s in your customer’s network.
Integrated tool: A fully integrated, free network discovery tool in the Avast Business Hub to help you gain full visibility of your customer’s network.

How to use it:

1.- Log in to the Business Hub
2.- Select a site/customer
3.- Go to the devices page and click the "Network discovery" tab
4.- Select "Set up your first scan"
5.- Click on "+ Add Scanning Agent" and select a Windows device
6.- Configure your scanning methods and results
7.- Click on "Scan network" to begin scanning
