Fingerbank is a suite of tools for the identification of networking devices based on their network fingerprints.
A device fingerprint can be used for various applications. For instance, it can be used by Network Access Control (NAC) solutions to grant specific network access authorization, based on device type. This means that networks systems can be taught to differentiate between, for example, gaming consoles and laptops, and adjust their access rights based on which device group they belong to.
Fingerbank can distinguish between normal and anomalous behavior of devices in the network:. throughThrough continuous data mining, the Fingerbank technology can extract common patterns from networking devices and raise alerts when it encounters abnormalities in their functioning.
The Fingerbank Cloud API (Application Programming Interface) is a closed-source, licensable SaaS device identification solution capable of tracking network device behavior patterns and detecting anomalies. The Fingerbank Cloud API can be integrated in any solutions requiring devicesdevice identification or anomaly detection services.
It provides a RESTful API for devicesdevice identification, tracking of network behavior patterns, usersand user management with authentication, authorization, and accounting services. Registered users can perform up to 300 requests per hour for free, and 1 million API requests per month are available for purchase via subscription at $250 monthly.
The Fingerbank Processor also provides a small HTTP service exposing its RESTful API for devicesdevice identification and anomaly detection. The provided API is a subset of the Fingerbank Cloud API.
Like the Fingerbank Processor, the Fingerbank Collector is a self-contained software solution that has a low memory and CPU footprint and can operate in various architectures. The Fingerbank Collector captures multiple protocols upon launch. The Fingerbank Collector retains part of the data it deems significant (akin to MAC vendors, DHCP v4 fingerprint, TCP fingerprint, DNS OS update lists, etc.) in-memory.
The Fingerbank Collector automizes data discovery and collection processes. It has access to the latest data from the public Fingerbank Cloud, which is continuously updated by thousands of PacketFence (an open-source network access control system) deployments worldwide.

FingerBank uses a database of millions of DHCP, TCP, DNS, and other traffic fingerprints to identify nearly 35,000 classes of devices and provide anomaly detection based on observed device behavior, such as IoT device network visits, which can be useful in the development of Zero Trust infrastructures. Fingerbank Profiling lists and definesencompasses the following:
With millions of DHCP, TCP, DNS and other traffic fingerprints, FingerBank can identify nearly 35,000 classes of devices, as well as providing detailed anomaly detection based on observed device behavior, such as IoT device visits on the network, which helps to establish a Zero Trust infrastructure.

The Fingerbank Processor is a self-contained binary with no dependency, meaning that it can be embedded into third-party security and network solutions. It is a more basic version of the Fingerbank Cloud API with response times under 20 ms, making it suitable for Carrier Grade NAT (CGNAT)carrier grade usage.

The Fingerbank Cloud API can be integrated in any solutions requiring devices identification or anomaly detection services.
After it is set up, the Fingerbank Collector can be queried over HTTP using a RESTful API in order to obtain endpoint details based on the IP or MAC addressMAC address. During this process the Collector interacts with the public Fingerbank Cloud hosted by Inverse.
