PacketViper Platform

Dissects OT protocol payloads at the function code level, detecting unauthorized read/write operations, unusual register ranges, and firmware upload commands in Modbus, DNP3, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and OPC-UA traffic.

Discovers and identifies OT assets, including nested devices behind controllers, with manufacturer, model, serial number, firmware and version detail, using passive traffic analysis first and, where the product supports them, OT-safe methods such as selective active querying, controller project-file parsing, lightweight host executables and switch or firewall telemetry. Passive-only versus multi-method discovery and the depth of identification vary widely.

Connects OT security to enterprise security operations either as a single converged console for IT and OT or through integration paths into SIEM, SOAR, ITSM, CMDB, NAC and firewall tooling, forwarding alerts and asset data with OT context (asset criticality, Purdue level, process impact) preserved so that SOC analysts can act without OT specialization. Assign only when integrations preserve OT context or run bidirectionally; basic syslog forwarding is standard across the niche.

Monitors control networks without adding latency or traffic, using passive SPAN or TAP collection and out-of-band sensors, and keeps full detection, analysis and reporting working at disconnected, air-gapped or intermittently connected sites through fully on-premises operation. Cloud-reliant products lose function at isolated sites; isolated-site-capable products do not.

Automates response and workflow actions such as ticketing, firewall or NAC policy pushes and playbook execution, natively or through SOAR integration, with mandatory human approval gates before any automated or agentic action that could affect production equipment.

Turns observed OT traffic and Purdue zone assignments into least-privilege zone and conduit policies, simulates their effect before rollout so that legitimate control traffic is not blocked, and enforces them either through the vendor's own firewalls and switches or by pushing rules to integrated third-party firewalls, switches and NAC. Native enforcement versus integration-only enforcement is the main difference between products.

Continuously varies network paths, IP addresses, and network configurations so attackers cannot reliably map or target stable routes to protected systems, rendering previously collected reconnaissance obsolete.

Limits lateral movement and code execution even when identities or credentials are compromised, reducing the blast radius of ransomware and destructive attacks.

Incorporates cyber deception capabilities such as decoys and tripwires as additional moving targets that disrupt, deny, and deceive attackers alongside runtime randomization.

Extends runtime randomization beyond laptops to servers, virtual desktops, cloud and container environments, software-defined networks, and OT gateways, including systems that cannot easily be patched or reimaged.

Schedules and triggers randomization events randomly, routinely, or on demand, including reconfiguration driven by predictive threat intelligence inputs, with AI and machine learning continuously adapting defenses in real time.
