IT Resource Drain

Legacy systems demand constant manual intervention. Forrester found that while legacy systems required over 60 hours of weekly maintenance, modernizing with Portnox Cloud reduced that burden to just one hour per week.

Security and Visibility Gaps

By implementing centralized, device-level access control, organizations reduced their exposure to addressable security attacks by 75%, saving an average of $1.3 million in avoided breach risk.

Scalability and Growth

Modern access control serves as a growth enabler. New site onboarding was slashed from days to minutes, allowing global expansion to proceed without the bottleneck of physical hardware procurement and deployment.
