INTEGRATION

Device42

Enriching OT and IT asset visibility in Nozomi Vantage with CMDB asset and software data from Device42.

About
Device42

Device42 is a cloud-based IT asset management and CMDB platform providing comprehensive device discovery, dependency mapping and infrastructure management for physical, virtual and cloud environments. By integrating Device42 with Nozomi Vantage, security teams gain a consolidated view of managed assets across IT and OT environments — importing CMDB asset and software data directly into Vantage. This enriches the asset registry with authoritative data from the Device42 management plane, accelerating incident investigation, reducing blind spots in critical infrastructure environments and enabling analysts to correlate cmdb telemetry with OT network observations without switching consoles.

Features

Importer Data Types

Vantage imports the following from
Device42
:
  • Asset Details Enrichment and Create New in Vantage

    Device42 supplies records including CI name, IPs, MAC, serial, manufacturer, hardware model, OS, business unit, building/rack location and last-discovered timestamp — to enrich existing Vantage assets and create new asset records for endpoints not yet observed on the OT network.

  • Asset Software Inventory Import

    Device42 reports installed software inventory with name, vendor, version and license information. This per-asset software list is imported into Vantage, giving OT security teams an authoritative view of what is running on each observed device.

Joint Use Cases

  • Correlating Device42 signals with OT network alerts

    When Nozomi Vantage raises an anomaly alert for a device inside an OT segment, the analyst can pivot to the same asset's Device42 record in Vantage to review CI ownership, environment, location and recent change history, all without leaving the Vantage investigation workflow. This cross-layer correlation surfaces whether a network-layer anomaly coincides with activity observed by Device42, reducing the time needed to confirm or dismiss an incident.

  • Closing asset inventory gaps across IT and OT

    Devices recorded by Device42 but not yet observed by Nozomi network sensors are automatically created as new asset records in Vantage, populated with CI name, IPs, MAC, manufacturer, model and location drawn from the Device42 management plane. OT operations teams can audit the resulting unified inventory to identify unmonitored or underprotected assets in industrial and critical infrastructure zones, then prioritize sensor deployment accordingly.

  • Aligning CMDB ownership with OT-observed asset reality

    Network-observed assets in Vantage are reconciled against their CMDB CI in Device42, surfacing devices that exist on the network but not in the CMDB, and vice versa. This supports the asset-governance workflows that ITAM and OT engineering teams need to keep ownership, location and lifecycle data accurate.

Integration Prerequesites

  • Active Nozomi Vantage tenant with the connector-configuration role assigned to the administering account
  • Device42 appliance with a REST API user account granted Read access on Devices and Software
  • Device42 license tier and feature set that includes software-inventory collection
  • Consistent hostname, IP or MAC addressing between Device42-recorded assets and Vantage-observed assets to enable accurate asset correlation and deduplication
  • Outbound network connectivity from Vantage to the source-tool API endpoint over HTTPS (this prerequisite is a deployment placeholder and may be adjusted to match your environment)
