BMC Helix Discovery vs. Josys

BMC Discovery (formerly BMC Atrium Discovery and Dependency Mapping, or ADDM) creates a dynamic, holistic view of all data center assets and the relationships between them, giving IT crucial visibility into how the assets support the business. Each scan delves into the information and dependencies for all software, hardware, network, storage, and versions, providing IT with the context needed to create an application map from any piece of information about it. A lightweight footprint allows IT to map applications with up to 100% accuracy in 15 minutes or less.

Josys is a modern AI-native identity security and governance platform. Enterprise AI adoption has made identity the fastest-growing attack surface — and the hardest to govern. Josys discovers, governs, and secures every identity - human, machine, and AI agent - across every application in the enterprise. Built on policy-led governance, Josys lets security and IT teams define access policies once and enforce them autonomously: risk is surfaced, access is controlled, and identity threats are remediated in real time, without manual oversight.
