OT Cybersecurity Engineer at Nadar

Offers strong incident response features but requires more asset visibility and flexibility

Dragos' best features are that they are more focused towards Incident Response, so they have a dedicated playbook in their platform, making it easier for anyone investigating any incidents to investigate the alerts. One of the main features of Dragos is that they have a dedicated Incident Response team, so if clients need any help, they are there to help. Dragos does real-time monitoring as well, collecting mirror traffic from the span port of the switch, and as soon as it gets the traffic, it analyzes it in real time and shows what's going on in the networks, which relates to the real-time visibility feature for ICS networks.

Effective asset management improves OT security by quantifying risks and identifying unauthorized communications

Nozomi Networks currently offers add-ons, such as ARP agents, that can be installed on machines to expand the information we receive from sensors. However, these are part of a licensing structure, which can be costly. It would be very helpful if these agents were available free of charge. The solution itself has no major problems, but this is a feature request I would make for improvement.
