4 Ways PRTG helps with monitoring convergent IT and OT
Summary
The idea is to help you manage the convergence of IT and OT in industrial environments by bringing all your monitoring data – be it from the factory floor, the front office or IIoT sensors – into one tool. PRTG does this by providing support for common industrial protocols and standards like Modbus, OPC UA, and MQTT on top of its legendary IT functionality. • Industrial gateways provide the bridge between different areas by translating protocols, and by aggregating data and transferring it to various endpoints. PRTG features the ability to monitor these components (and in the case of industrial gateways, it can even get information about the factory floor using OPC UA). PRTG also provides OPC UA certificate monitoring as another way to help with cyber security in OT networks.
