Problem
Operational technology (OT) and Internet of Things (IoT) environments often consist of heterogeneous, legacy devices that lack built‑in security controls, making it difficult to obtain accurate asset inventories, detect anomalies, and meet strict regulatory requirements. These blind spots increase the risk of cyber‑physical attacks and operational disruptions for critical infrastructure operators. Traditional IT security tools cannot reliably monitor OT protocols or provide the context needed for rapid incident response.
Solution
Nozomi Networks delivers a purpose‑built OT/IoT cybersecurity platform that combines passive network sensors, AI‑driven asset intelligence, and continuous threat detection to provide end‑to‑end visibility across all operational assets. The platform ingests data from a range of sensors—including Guardian network taps, Arc endpoint agents, and wireless Guardian Air devices—and normalizes protocol‑specific traffic for real‑time analysis. Its AI engine enriches device profiles with vendor, firmware, and lifecycle information, enabling near‑100 % asset identification and accurate vulnerability mapping. Threat and anomaly detection leverage curated OT/IoT threat intelligence and machine‑learning baselines to surface actionable alerts, while guided remediation playbooks reduce mean‑time‑to‑response. Management options include a SaaS‑based Vantage cloud service or an on‑premises Central Management Console, supporting integration with SIEMs, ticketing, and identity systems. Compliance reporting automates evidence generation for standards such as ISA/IEC 62443, NERC CIP, NIS2, and SEC cyber rules, helping organizations meet audit requirements with minimal manual effort.
Target Audience
The solution is aimed at OT and IoT security teams, plant operators, and risk managers in critical infrastructure sectors such as utilities, manufacturing, oil & gas, healthcare, transportation, and smart‑city deployments. It also serves public‑sector entities and large enterprises that must comply with industry‑specific cybersecurity regulations.
Features
- Passive, agent‑less network monitoring (Guardian) that captures traffic from wired, wireless, and remote OT segments without disrupting operations.
- AI‑enhanced Asset Intelligence feed that auto‑enriches device inventories with vendor, model, OS, and end‑of‑life data, achieving near‑complete asset coverage.
- Real‑time Threat Detection & Response engine using machine‑learning baselines, YARA rules, STIX indicators, and integrated Threat Intelligence from Mandiant and partner feeds.
- Scalable sensor portfolio (Guardian, Guardian Air, Arc endpoint, Arc Embedded, Remote Collector) supporting diverse protocols and environments.
- Centralized management via Vantage SaaS or on‑prem Central Management Console, with dashboards, heat‑maps, and drill‑down analytics for operators and SOC teams.
- Smart Polling add‑on for active credential‑based data collection on devices that do not emit sufficient passive traffic.
- Automated compliance reporting and audit‑ready evidence generation for ISA/IEC 62443, NERC CIP, NIS2, SEC, and TSA directives.
- Open integrations with SIEM, ticketing, identity, and IT asset management systems through REST APIs and native connectors.
