Why Should You Use the Signal Sciences Connector? #
The Signal Sciences connector provides visibility into the assets in your environment. You can use this visibility to:
-
ensure assets are managed per your security policies
-
derive relationships between assets, users, applications, and data
How Does This Connector Work? #
Lucidum executes read-only requests to the Signal Sciences REST API and ingests only meta-data about Signal Sciences devices. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.
