First Steps

Industrial Defender ASM is typically deployed through the stages below. ASP Dijital provides planning and installation support tailored to your OT network.

  1. Plan the scope

    Identify the OT assets, network zones, and control systems to protect. Prioritize scope according to the IEC 62443 zone and conduit model.

  2. Set up data collection

    Deploy components that securely collect and monitor data from ICS assets. Achieve visibility without disrupting production processes through passive monitoring.

  3. Build the asset inventory

    Discover and classify all OT assets on the network: PLCs, RTUs, HMIs, network devices, and software. Configuration management tracks changes to maintain a secure and stable ICS environment.

  4. Configure monitoring and alerts

    Enable real-time anomaly detection so unusual activities are identified immediately, allowing rapid response to potential security threats.

  5. Manage vulnerabilities

    Continuously monitor and manage vulnerabilities in OT assets, integrating with NIST and ICS-CERT alerts to prioritize and mitigate risks.

  6. Automate compliance reporting

    Automate reporting for industry standards such as IEC 62443, NIST, and NERC CIP with built-in policy management and reporting templates; reduce manual compliance tasks.

  7. Align IT and OT teams

    Improve alignment and data sharing between IT and OT teams with seamless integrations; simplify risk quantification and reporting with automated tools.
