Following recent cyber attacks on Israeli targets, Israeli companies are reportedly turning to a company called Faddom due to what it calls "hybrid and agentless application dependency mapping IT software" that can act in a proactive way to prevent the targeting of dormant servers.

"Faddom's application dependency mapping tool maps entire IT environments – both on-premises and in the cloud – and identifies dependencies between servers and applications to get a holistic picture of an IT network's connections," the company said in a statement, noting that some of the large firms in Israel have asked for its services, including some that deal with insurance and technological innovation.
"The IT infrastructure maps appear in as little as 60 minutes, and they identify dormant servers," it said. "In addition to helping with proactive cybersecurity, the technology helps organizations by assisting with micro-segmentation planning to limit the severity of cyber attacks when they occur," stressing that mapping one's IT infrastructure optimizes the company's resources and could save a lot of money.
Aviv Hooker, co-founder and CRO of Faddom, stressed that "in a dynamic reality, the ability to keep an eye on the computing environment and know what is happening in real time is critical to managing a joint routine in organizations."
