Gain Complete Visibility Into All My OT & IoT Systems
CHALLENGE
Without Visibility into Each Building’s OT and IoT Assets, It’s Hard to Ensure Safety and Security
Building owner-operators and investment companies want to improve occupant comfort, reduce energy consumption, operate systems efficiently and increase the lifecycle of utilities. To achieve this, they’re rapidly adopting IoT-based systems and adding sensors that allow them to gather as much data as possible.
The combination of new building automation systems, smart sensors and legacy equipment creates a complex operational technology environment. It also expands the attack surface, increasing vulnerability to cyber threats.
Given multiple pressure points, there is a new sense of urgency within the sector to improve property security and safety. But you can’t protect what you can’t see.
Building managers need a comprehensive security solution that can automatically inventory assets and provide deeper visibility into all OT networks. This is the first step to building a stronger cybersecurity posture.
SOLUTION
Automatically Track Your OT and IoT Assets
The Nozomi Networks solution addresses this common challenge by automatically creating an IoT/OT asset inventory and keeping it up-to-date.
It identifies network devices, validates details and provides precise descriptions. It also monitors each asset’s metadata in real-time, collecting attributes such as:
- Device name, type, serial number, firmware version and components
- Asset and subpart properties: site, name, IP address, MAC address and state
- Embedded devices such as controllers or PLCs and their inner components
- Logical node subsystems such as circuit breakers and switches
- Measurement points
- PC operating system and installed software apps with version numbers
Dedicated asset views make it easy to visualize, find and drill down on device information. Building operators can easily add more details such as location and site.
And, the Nozomi Networks solution sends you alerts when changes to hardware, software and devices occur. This quickly brings operational risks or potential cyber incidents to your attention.
Automated, Accurate Asset Inventory
Vantage protects your automation networks from cyberattacks and operational disruptions by providing complete OT and IoT visibility and security in a single, unified solution.
Smart Polling extends the built-in asset discovery functionality of the Nozomi Networks solution with active capabilities that deliver comprehensive and precise details about each asset in your network.
