Use case · Discovery

Find what nobody told you about.

Network discovery and NDR integrations reveal the devices that never appear in an agent-based inventory, and Lumen Edge tells you which tools have, and have not, seen them.

The problem

Why this is hard today

  • Printers, IP cameras, UPS units, PDUs, network gear and OT gateways cannot run an endpoint agent.
  • Contractor laptops, test servers and lab equipment appear and disappear without a ticket.
  • If an asset is only visible to one tool (or none), it is invisible to the processes that protect it.

How Lumen Edge solves it

From signal to action, step by step.

  1. 01

    Scan actively

    Discover hosts, ports and services in the subnets you choose. HTTP fingerprinting identifies vendor and model for dozens of device families.

  2. 02

    Listen passively

    The passive scanner and NDR integrations learn assets from traffic and DHCP without touching the devices.

  3. 03

    Correlate

    Every discovery is matched against managed sources. Anything seen only on the wire is flagged as unmanaged.

  4. 04

    Decide

    Approve, assign an owner, or investigate. New assets can wait in an approval queue until someone reviews them.

Outcomes

What you get

  • Continuous discovery of unmanaged devices
  • Device type and vendor for non-agent assets
  • A review queue instead of surprise
  • Fewer blind spots for SOC and IT

Bring one question you cannot answer today: how many servers have no EDR, who owns a subnet, which licenses are idle. We will answer it on a live platform.
