    Integrate Device Security with SolarWinds Platform

    Integrate Device Security with SolarWinds Platform to gain network subnet information and track physical locations of IoT/OT devices.
    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 for an advanced Device Security product (Enterprise Plus, Industrial OT, or Medical)
    • 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
    Integrate Device Security with SolarWinds Platform (previously SolarWinds Orion modules) to gain network subnet information and track physical locations of IoT/OT devices. This integration addresses challenges in understanding device network connections and automating IP subnet definition imports, thereby providing crucial context for device identification, network management, and security.
    Device Security built and verified this integration with the legacy SolarWinds Orion modules. SolarWinds now hosts SolarWinds Orion modules on SolarWinds Platform.
    Device Security takes advantage of the IP Address Management (IPAM) and User Device Tracking (UDT) capabilities of SolarWinds. When configuring the integration, the SolarWinds solution you choose affects what Device Security learns from the integration.
    • SolarWinds Platform IPAM solution: subnet configurations, VLAN identifiers, and descriptions from your SolarWinds infrastructure. The information learned from the IPAM solution lets you reuse the SolarWinds subnet definitions in Device Security.
    • SolarWinds Platform UDT solution: individual device details and their specific switch and port connection, such as switch names, port numbers, VLAN assignments, and wireless access point information. The information learned from the UDT solution gives more context when assessing network security.
    If you already have SolarWinds Platform, integrating with Device Security provides operational benefits by enabling location-based device grouping, supporting queries based on physical network placement, and triggering alerts when devices change network locations. You get better visibility into device movement patterns and can quickly identify devices that relocate between switches or ports. This visibility helps with enterprise security monitoring, compliance tracking, and operational troubleshooting in complex environments.
    For a full list of attributes that Device Security can learn through the integration, see SolarWinds UDT Attribute Reference.
    Integrating with SolarWinds requires either a full-featured Cortex XSOAR server or the activation of a Device Security free cohosted Cortex XSOAR instance.
