What is VMDR OT
Qualys VMDR OT is a cloud-based solution that provides comprehensive visibility, asset inventory, and vulnerability management for industrial environments. It is designed specifically for Operational Technology (OT) networks, covering all layers of industrial control systems (ICS), including control, supervisory, and site operations.
VMDR OT helps organizations secure critical infrastructure by identifying assets, detecting vulnerabilities, and monitoring process integrity in real time.
VMDR OT Journey
Asset Discovery
Real-time Asset Inventory through Network Passive Sensor (NPS)
Maintain a real-time visibility into all OT assets across industrial networks using our Network Passive Sensors (NPS).
Learn More →Out-of-Band Configuration Assessment (OCA)
VMDR OT enables OCA by importing industrial project files to automatically parse and create enriched OT asset inventories.
Learn More →OT Device Scan
OT device scan captures complete asset data by mirroring ICS/OT protocols using Qualys scanners. Configure this scan from the VMDR application.
Learn More →Key Features of VMDR OT
Robust Vulnerability Management
Detects vulnerabilities in industrial OT assets and maintains a knowledge base of ICS hardware and software vulnerabilities.
Learn More →Process Integrity Monitoring (PIM)
Enhances the security of your OT assets by monitoring process-related events to identify any deviations from the expected process behavior.
Learn More →Network Traffic
Get a complete view of the network traffic in your OT environment.
Learn More →External IP Reputation
Assess the threat posed by external IP addresses to your OT assets using the reputation score.
Learn More →Alerting
Configure rules to monitor critical events based on specific conditions. When an event matches these conditions, you will receive an alert notification.
Learn More →Reporting
Reports provide visibility into OT assets and security posture. Generate, customize, and schedule reports.
Learn More →TruRisk™ Score
Prioritize remediation across your OT environment with a unified, risk-based score that reflects the real-world impact of vulnerabilities on critical assets.
