Unknown devices can appear on an organization’s network almost every day. They may belong to employees, guests, suppliers, or contractors. The real problem begins when no one knows what a device is, who is responsible for it, or whether it should have access to corporate resources.
On July 9, 2026, we invite you to a webinar organized together with Sycope. We will show how to detect devices without installing agents, running active scans, or interfering with the infrastructure. We will also walk through the entire response process – from device identification and Jira ticket creation to blocking unauthorized access.
Why Do Unknown Devices Pose a Real Threat?
In many organizations, the main challenge is not a lack of security tools. More often, the problem is limited visibility, unclear policies, and no clearly assigned responsibility for devices operating on the network.
Unknown equipment may remain unnoticed for a long time. In some cases, the organization only discovers it during an audit, an incident investigation, or a disruption affecting the infrastructure.
Detecting a device alone does not solve the problem. The team still needs to determine who owns it, whether its access is justified, and what action should be taken.
That is why the webinar will focus not only on detection, but also on the entire decision-making and policy enforcement process.
Device Detection Without Active Scanning
During the session, we will show how passive network traffic analysis can help identify devices and their vendors. This approach does not require additional software to be installed on endpoints.
We will discuss how to detect:
- unknown computers and mobile devices
- employee and guest equipment
- devices used by suppliers and contractors
- printers, cameras, IP phones, and IoT devices
- unauthorized assets connected to the infrastructure
We will also explain how to use Allow Lists and Watch Lists. These lists can support exception handling, risk management, and clear responsibility for access-related decisions.
From Device Detection to a Jira Ticket
One of the key parts of the webinar will focus on process automation with Jira.
When an unknown device is detected, the system can automatically create a ticket. The case can then be assigned to the appropriate team or person responsible for further analysis.
This approach makes it possible to:
- organize the response process
- assign clear responsibility
- measure ticket handling times
- document exceptions and decisions
- maintain a complete history of actions
- prepare the process for audits
A ticket-based workflow helps organizations move from an alert to a specific action. It also reduces the risk that information about an unknown device will be ignored or left without a response.
Integrations and Unauthorized Device Blocking
The process does not have to end with a ticket.
Sycope can integrate with other network and security systems. This makes it possible to block an unauthorized device manually or automatically.
During the webinar, we will show how to combine detection, analysis, decision-making, and security policy enforcement into one consistent process.
We will also present the broader context of using Sycope. We will discuss network traffic visibility, infrastructure analysis, and support for IT, NOC, and SOC teams in their daily operations.
What Will You Learn During the Webinar?
During the session, we will discuss:
- where network device chaos comes from
- how to detect devices and vendors passively
- how to use Allow Lists and Watch Lists
- how to create Jira tickets automatically
- how to assign responsibility for incident handling
- how to build a measurable and auditable workflow
- how to integrate Sycope with network systems
- how to block unauthorized devices
Who Should Attend?
The webinar is intended primarily for professionals responsible for cybersecurity, networks, and IT infrastructure.
The session will be particularly useful for:
- network administrators
- cybersecurity specialists
- SOC and NOC teams
- IT architects
- risk management professionals
- teams preparing organizations for audits
- professionals working with Jira and incident handling processes
