OT Asset Visability

Executive Summary

OT visibility platforms provide foundational capabilities for inventory management, behavioral baselining, protocol awareness, and security operations integration.

Core Findings

Asset Discovery

• Inventories PLCs, HMIs, DCS, SCADA, operating systems, and industrial protocols.
• Uses passive monitoring to avoid operational disruption.

Asset Context

• Correlates protocol, behavioral, and communications data.
• Enables better risk prioritization and asset classification.

Integration

• Integrates with SIEM platforms such as Splunk.
• Shares asset visibility data across security platforms.

Recommended Practices

• Deploy passive sensors first.
• Establish complete OT asset inventories.
• Integrate OT telemetry into enterprise SIEM platforms.
• Leverage OT-focused threat intelligence feeds.
