INTEGRATION

ManageEngine

Enriching OT and IT asset visibility in Nozomi Vantage with endpoint inventory, software and patch data from ManageEngine Endpoint Central.

About
ManageEngine

ManageEngine Endpoint Central is a cloud-based endpoint management platform with device inventory, patch management and software deployment across Windows, macOS and Linux. By integrating ManageEngine Endpoint Central with Nozomi Vantage, security teams gain a consolidated view of managed assets across IT and OT environments — importing endpoint inventory, software and patch data directly into Vantage. This enriches the asset registry with authoritative data from the ManageEngine management plane, accelerating incident investigation, reducing blind spots in critical infrastructure environments and enabling analysts to correlate uem telemetry with OT network observations without switching consoles.

Features

Importer Data Types

Vantage imports the following from
ManageEngine Endpoint Central
:
  • Asset Details Enrichment and Create New in Vantage

    ManageEngine Endpoint Central supplies records including computer name, IP, MAC, OS, OS architecture, manufacturer, model, domain/workgroup, last-contact time and asset type — to enrich existing Vantage assets and create new asset records for endpoints not yet observed on the OT network.

  • Asset Software Inventory Import

    ManageEngine Endpoint Central reports installed software inventory including software name, vendor, version, install location and license category. This per-asset software list is imported into Vantage, giving OT security teams an authoritative view of what is running on each observed device.

  • Asset CPE and CVE Import

    ManageEngine Endpoint Central produces missing patch and CVE findings with severity classification from the Endpoint Central patch management module. These findings are imported into Vantage as CPE-correlated vulnerability records, enabling prioritized remediation tracking within the Nozomi asset context.

Joint Use Cases

  • Correlating ManageEngine 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 ManageEngine Endpoint Central record in Vantage to review compliance state, last-check-in time and assigned configuration profile, all without leaving the Vantage investigation workflow. This cross-layer correlation surfaces whether a network-layer anomaly coincides with activity observed by ManageEngine, reducing the time needed to confirm or dismiss an incident.

  • Closing asset inventory gaps across IT and OT

    Devices recorded by ManageEngine Endpoint Central but not yet observed by Nozomi network sensors are automatically created as new asset records in Vantage, populated with device name, model, OS, ownership and enrollment status drawn from the ManageEngine 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.

  • Prioritizing vulnerability remediation on critical OT assets

    CVE findings and severity scores imported from ManageEngine Endpoint Central are surfaced alongside Nozomi's OT risk scoring for each asset, allowing security engineers to rank remediation effort by both vulnerability severity and the operational criticality of the affected device. This joint view enables compliance reporting workflows, such as IEC 62443 gap assessments, to reference both network-observed risk and ManageEngine-confirmed vulnerability data from a single Vantage dashboard.

Integration Prerequesites

  • Active Nozomi Vantage tenant with the connector-configuration role assigned to the administering account
  • ManageEngine Endpoint Central Cloud tenant with API authentication token issued under Admin → Personalize → API
  • ManageEngine Endpoint Central license tier and feature set that includes software-inventory collection
  • ManageEngine Endpoint Central module or license that produces per-asset CVE findings enabled in the source tenant
  • Consistent hostname, IP or MAC addressing between ManageEngine Endpoint Central-recorded assets and Vantage-observed assets to enable accurate asset correlation and deduplication
