About the Microsoft Defender for IoT

Microsoft Defender for IoT is a comprehensive security solution that provides visibility, threat detection, and vulnerability management for unmanaged Internet of Things (IoT) and Operational Technology (OT) devices, including Industrial Control Systems (ICS). It offers agentless, network-layer monitoring to discover all devices, assess their risks, and detect anomalous or malicious activities in real-time within complex industrial and enterprise IoT environments. The platform integrates with existing security operations tools like Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft Defender XDR, and other security information and event management (SIEM) systems to provide a unified view of security across IT, IoT, and OT networks. It aims to secure critical infrastructure, prevent disruptions, and ensure the safety and reliability of industrial operations.
