What defines the scope of visibility in ForeScout’s monitoring capabilities?

The scope of visibility in ForeScout’s monitoring capabilities is defined by its ability to see all devices across wired, wireless, and remote networks. This comprehensive visibility is essential for effective network security management, as it allows organizations to monitor, control, and enforce policies on a diverse range of devices, irrespective of their location or connection type.

ForeScout’s platform is designed to provide insights not only into devices connected directly to the main server or a single subnet, but also to those that may be on different networks—whether they are connecting through wireless signals or over VPNs from remote locations. This holistic monitoring ensures that all endpoints, such as laptops, mobile devices, IoT devices, and others, can be accounted for and managed effectively.

The other options suggest limited visibility—focusing only on local devices or specific categories, which does not align with the capabilities of ForeScout's monitoring solution. Consequently, the correct choice reflects a fundamental aspect of ForeScout’s architecture, encapsulating its ability to provide organization-wide visibility that is crucial for maintaining security postures in complex network environments.
