Sophos

Importer Data Types

• Asset Details Enrichment and Create New in Vantage

  Sophos Central supplies records including endpoint hostname, IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, MAC address, OS name and version, group membership, tamper protection status, health status and last-seen timestamp — to enrich existing Vantage assets and create new asset records for endpoints not yet observed on the OT network.

Joint Use Cases

• Correlating Sophos 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 Sophos Central 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 Sophos, reducing the time needed to confirm or dismiss an incident.

• Closing asset inventory gaps across IT and OT

  Devices recorded by Sophos Central 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 Sophos 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 Sophos Central are reconciled with Vantage's network-observed inventory, surfacing assets that are present in one source but missing from the other.
