Like

It is software, you don't need HW appliances to do the discovery.

Like

1- Perform scanning using active query for both IoT and OT devices for maximum visibility and authentic information as compared to Passive scans. 2- Does not require any configuration changes in the network like other solution requires span / Rspan to collect the information 3- Extremely useful for scanning a large number of devices.

Like

1: Nondisruptive discovery capability. 2: Ability to detect configuration drift. 3: Centralized firmware management.

Dislike

The platform doesn't have an option to acknowledge a raised alarm/issue. It keeps the list of found issues long even if you can confirm that they are not.

Dislike

1- Due to its unique technology, Scanning is very fast and non intrusive . The only thing which needs improvement is add capability to scan OS based system , which is currently not available

    Phosphorus -- Effective xIoT discovery and security

    Feb 5, 2024
    Phosphorus has truly proven to be a valuable addition to our portfolio. The product delivers as advertised, but what truly differentiates Phosphorus from other companies in this space is their support organization. They are able to rapidly turn around any additional features or detected devices that were needed to be added to their platform. Easy UI and great account team!
