Zurich	The Discovery Console for OT provides situational awareness of your OT environment. This awareness starts at the HumanMachine Interface (HMI Purdue Reference Model Levels 2 and 3) and goes down to the field devices (Level 0) through the Console Network and Sensors. The Discovery Sensor for OT executes the discovery of devices and creates the OT environment of device inventory. The Service Graph Connector for ServiceNow OT Discovery imports data from a connected OT environment and leverages the Integration Hub ETL framework to import CMDB. TheOT Discovery Collector delivers native OT protocol support without requiring any appliance, making it fast to implement and easy to scale.
