!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is a [device] that lasts for a short period of [time].
[Examples] of devices that are often [{$pagename}] include [Virtual Machines], [containers], and certain unmanaged [devices].
[{$pagename}]s might be best illustrated by the "pets" vs. "cattle" analogy often cited in cybersecurity.
Traditional [servers] and [devices] are the pets in this scenario. We care about them. We want them to live for a long time. If they get sick, we want to fix them.
However, [{$pagename}]s like [Virtual Machines], [containers], and other elastic are the cattle. They are one of many and considered expendable. We expect them to live for as long as we need them, and if something goes wrong we eliminate them and create a new one.
[{$pagename}]s often pose a major challenge to [organizations]. They represent potentially millions of unsecured, vulnerable instances in an environment.
Even the largest [cybersecurity] team will tap out on attempting to find, manage, and secure them all — especially when the very nature of [{$pagename}]s means they often go undetected by traditional asset management methods.
