Automate Your IoT & OT Asset Management
CHALLENGE
Creating and Managing an Accurate, Up-to-Date Asset Inventory
Creating an accurate operational technology (OT) asset inventory, and keeping it current can be difficult and extremely time-consuming.
Not only do industrial networks contain a large number of devices from multiple vendors, assets get added and changed frequently. These complex environments typically contain OT and IoT security vulnerabilities you’re not even aware of.
Accurate, centralized IoT and OT asset data is crucial for effective cybersecurity management and operational monitoring.
SOLUTION
Automate Your Device Discovery & Management with Nozomi
This view summarizes the asset status across facilities for real-time situational awareness and risk assessment.
Vantage, a complete OT, ICS and IoT security solution, addresses this common challenge by automatically creating an OT and IoT asset inventory and keeping it up-to-date.
Vantage 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 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 OT device information. Industrial operators can easily add more details such as location and site.
With Vantage you get alerts when changes to hardware, software, and devices occur, quickly bringing process risks or potential cyber incidents to your attention.
Automated, Accurate Asset Inventory Management
Vantage protects your industrial control networks from cyberattacks and operational disruptions by providing complete OT and IoT visibility and security in a single, unified solution.
Smart Polling extends Vantage’s built-in asset discovery functionality with active capabilities that deliver comprehensive and precise details about each asset in your network. Vantage’s automated vulnerability assessment rapidly identifies which devices on the network are vulnerable, and provides the details needed to respond quickly. It also provides consolidated access to data from all deployments, making it easy to monitor and manage cybersecurity across distributed industrial sites.
