- Layer 2 Network Discovery
- Tracking of the interfaces which are located between systems
- Classification of the devices based on risk, data confidentiality, and integrity, as well as availability of the system
- Proper security controls

- Identification through discovery potentials risks (user accounts, installed software etc.)
- Tracking change history through discovery
- Efficient reporting based on changes
