“ I saw the potential in Ivanti . While we were very small and we didn ' t have a lot of strong assets , there was a strong foundation for adding some smart acquisitions ”

The Ivanti Neurons automation platform Ivanti ’ s flagship Neurons automation platform discovers , manages , secures , and services IT assets from cloud to edge . Nayyar adds : “ Neurons helps customers to truly leverage additional transformation in a post-COVID world . They can discover all types of assets that they have in their landscape ,” she said .
“ When you have such a diverse workforce working from all over the world , working from different locations , whether it ' s from home or while they ' re on the move ; knowing what devices they own is the number one priority for every enterprise . We help secure the devices , the users and the end-to-end access management . We ’ re also trying to provide that contextual , personalised experience to every employee in an enterprise .,” said Nayyar .
Even the word ‘ neurons ’ was chosen because it evoked a mental image of small , intelligent , bots that can self heal devices .
“ So these self-healing bots can detect an issue before the end-user knows about it and prevent those issues from happening , so the end-users don ' t experience it . And they get a very personalised , ambient experience ,” she said .
In regards to this type of intelligence , Nayyar takes inspiration from modern cars , that can learn who we are and what our likes and dislikes are , and self-heal before an issue manifests .
Ivanti bases its technology on automation by AI / ML , deep learning capabilities and supervised and unsupervised learning capabilities . They create these self-healing bots which provide a contextual service experience to end-users .
“ The innovation that we brought to market , that ' s what drove our growth . I would say we ’ re now a leading vendor , but the brand wasn ' t even known two years back .” said Nayyar . cybermagazine . com 53
