Integrate Device Security with Nozomi Vantage

Integrate Device Security with Nozomi Vantage to import OT and IoT asset inventory, software details, and vulnerabilities from your Nozomi deployment into Device Security.
Where Can I Use This?What Do I Need?
  • Device Security (Managed by Strata Cloud Manager)
  • (Legacy) IoT Security (Standalone portal)
One of the following subscriptions:
  • Device Security subscription
  • Precision AI bundle subscription
  • Device Security X subscription
One of the following Cortex XSOAR setups:
  • A free, cohosted, limited-featured Cortex XSOAR instance
    AND
    A free Cortex XSOAR Engine (on-premises integration)
  • A full-featured Cortex XSOAR server
Nozomi Vantage, a cloud-based SaaS platform from Nozomi Networks, provides visibility, threat detection, and risk monitoring for operational technology (OT) and IoT environments. Integrating Nozomi Vantage with Device Security lets Device Security learn about the OT and IoT assets that Nozomi discovers, so that you can manage your OT, IoT, and IT device inventories together in Device Security.
The same integration also supports Nozomi Guardian, the on-premises Nozomi appliance that collects and analyzes traffic locally. Nozomi Guardian exposes the same API structure as Nozomi Vantage, so a single Cortex XSOAR integration can work for either deployment. You choose which system to connect to by entering the Nozomi Vantage cloud URL or the Nozomi Guardian appliance URL as the Domain URL when you configure the integration instance in Cortex XSOAR.
Through the Nozomi Vantage integration, Device Security can ingest the following data:
  • Device inventory: Information about your OT and IoT devices, such as device type, vendor, model, operating system, firmware version, MAC address, IP address, and last-seen timestamp.
  • Software inventory: Software components installed on each device, such as product name, version, and vendor.
  • Vulnerabilities: Information about known vulnerabilities that Nozomi has identified on your devices, mapped to the corresponding assets. Vulnerability details include information such as CVE, criticality, and detection time on a given asset.
Bringing Nozomi Vantage asset data into Device Security gives you a consolidated view of your OT, IoT, and IT devices in a single inventory. You can then apply Advanced Device-ID policies to Nozomi Vantage devices, correlate their vulnerabilities with other risk signals in Device Security, and act on them alongside the rest of your connected devices.
If you create Advanced Device-ID policies for Nozomi-sourced devices, you need to understand the MAC-IP binding source for those devices. If the MAC-IP binding source is not traffic observed by the NGFW then there is risk that policies may be applied to the wrong IP if a device’s IP changes between runs of Nozomi integration jobs.
Device Security queries Nozomi Vantage over its REST API using an API key that you generate in the Nozomi Vantage console.
To control which data Device Security receives, you configure jobs in Cortex XSOAR with the appropriate playbook:
  • Import Device Details From Nozomi Vantage To Device Security — imports device inventory records and their attributes.
  • Import Devices With Softwares Details From Nozomi Vantage To Device Security — imports device records together with their installed software components.
  • Import Vulnerabilities From Nozomi Vantage To Device Security — imports vulnerability findings mapped to the corresponding devices.
You can run each job on-demand or schedule it to run on a recurring interval.
For a full list of attributes that Device Security can learn through the integration, see Nozomi Vantage Attribute Reference.
Integrating with Nozomi Vantage or Nozomi Guardian requires either a full-featured Cortex XSOAR server or the activation of a Device Security free cohosted Cortex XSOAR instance. If you use a cohosted Cortex XSOAR instance to connect to an on-premises Nozomi Guardian appliance, you also need a free Cortex XSOAR engine.
