Without hardware sensors, forced Cloud\r\ndeployment, or complex configuration chores. A software-only discovery that goes deep into your process\r\nnetworks, down to level zero. Developed by the team that cracked Stuxnet, and used by some of the largest global\r\nenterprises in Manufacturing and Oil \u0026 Gas.\r\nComplete OT asset transparency.\r\nFor everyone.\r\nOT security\r\nEffective OT vulnerability management like never before.\r\nOT security experts love the exceptional visibility they get from the contextualized OT asset inventory in OTbase.\r\nIt provides exact CVE mapping without “probabilities” and “likelihoods.” The platform also comes with AI-generated vulnerability context, analytics for determining target security levels and risk scores, and an easy-to-use\r\nremediation workflow.\r\nBe the change. Drive the digital transition.\r\nhttps://www.langner.com/2018/11/why-ethernet-ip-changes-the-ot-asset-discovery-game/\r\nPage 1 of 11\n\nEngineering\r\nDeep OT system understanding at a whole new level.\r\nControl engineers appreciate how OTbase exposes exact details like serial numbers, firmware versions, OS\r\nversions, and installed  apps. They rave about automated L1 network topology maps, including field buses. Throw\r\nin obsolescence management and system dependency mapping and you got engineering’s favorite tool for dealing\r\nwith the digital transformation.\r\nBe the change. Drive the digital transition.\r\nhttps://www.langner.com/2018/11/why-ethernet-ip-changes-the-ot-asset-discovery-game/\r\nPage 2 of 11\n\nIT\r\nDon't sweat the IT/OT convergence.\r\nWhen IT specialists all of a sudden are supposed to deal with OT networks, they usually struggle to get going. Not\r\nso once OTbase comes into play, as it is as easy to use as any IT platform.\r\nhttps://www.langner.com/2018/11/why-ethernet-ip-changes-the-ot-asset-discovery-game/\r\nPage 3 of 11\n\nIT auditors find all the information they need at their fingertips with OTbase’s contextualized asset inventory. It\r\neliminates time-consuming travel and walk-down inspections. Automated compliance checks highlight devices\r\nwith outdated OS versions, inactive antivirus, and other issues—making it a clear winner.\r\nBe the change.
