Overview

Viakoo offers an agentless software platform called Viakoo Action that discovers, monitors, and automatically remediates IoT device vulnerabilities across large, multi-vendor deployments. The platform aggregates device data, interoperates with third-party asset discovery tools like Armis and Forescout, and evaluates firmware, password, and 802.1x/TLS certificate status to apply firmware updates, certificate management, and password policy enforcement. Viakoo describes Viakoo Action as a one-click solution that patches different device types almost instantly and at scale, and says it uniquely supports both tightly coupled and loosely coupled devices. The company reports a customer base of over 100, including government agencies, healthcare, education service providers, datacenters, enterprises, and municipal services. Founded in 2013 and based in Mountain View, California, Viakoo plans to use fresh capital to accelerate sales, expand international operations, expand executive leadership, and add development resources for Viakoo Action. The company also claims the solution can pay for itself within months by preventing targeted device attacks; no revenue figures were disclosed in the article.
