In this sponsored interview Patrick Gray chats with Knocknoc CEO Adam Pointon about their Greynoise integration.

Knocknoc allowlists network connections from users’ IPs after they’ve been through an SSO challenge. It’s great for protecting vulnerable or risky assets that your org has to connect to the internet.
