Fortinet

Importer Data Types

• Asset Details Enrichment and Create New in Vantage

  FortiEDR supplies records including collector hostname, IP and MAC addresses, OS and kernel version, collector group, policy assignment, isolation state and last-communication timestamp — to enrich existing Vantage assets and create new asset records for endpoints not yet observed on the OT network.

Joint Use Cases

• Correlating Fortinet 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 FortiEDR record in Vantage to review recent detections, prevention events, isolation status and agent health, all without leaving the Vantage investigation workflow. This cross-layer correlation surfaces whether a network-layer anomaly coincides with activity observed by FortiNet, reducing the time needed to confirm or dismiss an incident.

• Closing asset inventory gaps across IT and OT

  Devices recorded by FortiEDR but not yet observed by Nozomi network sensors are automatically created as new asset records in Vantage, populated with hostname, OS, agent status and last-seen timestamp drawn from the FortiNet 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.

• Validating asset-management coverage across IT and OT

  Records from FortiEDR are reconciled with Vantage's network-observed inventory, surfacing assets that are present in one source but missing from the other.
