Ondeso SystemInfo: Complete IT Infrastructure Visibility and Asset Tracking
In modern industrial environments, you cannot protect or manage what you cannot see. As production plants digitize, Operational Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) merge. This convergence creates a massive blind spot for administrators. Legacy assets, proprietary industrial control systems, and standard IT components coexist on the same shop floor. To maintain security, maximize uptime, and ensure regulatory compliance, industrial enterprises require absolute clarity.
Ondeso SystemInfo delivers this clarity. It serves as a specialized, passive, and non-disruptive asset tracking solution engineered specifically for industrial infrastructures. Here is how Ondeso SystemInfo provides complete visibility into your entire IT and OT landscape. The Challenge of Industrial Asset Tracking
Standard IT asset management tools often fail in production environments. Active network scanning can easily overload sensitive Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), causing costly production downtime or system crashes. Furthermore, industrial networks frequently contain legacy Windows operating systems (like Windows XP or 7) and air-gapped systems that completely evade traditional corporate monitoring.
Without an inventory tailored to these unique constraints, organizations face significant risks:
Security Vulnerabilities: Unpatched, forgotten machines become easy entry points for cyber threats.
Compliance Penalties: Failure to document assets violates strict industrial regulations like NIS2 or IEC 62443.
Operational Inefficiencies: Maintenance teams waste critical hours manually locating hardware or diagnosing software versions during a breakdown. Key Features of Ondeso SystemInfo
Ondeso SystemInfo eliminates these vulnerabilities by automatically gathering deep, granular data from all connected systems without risking operational safety. 1. Passive and Safe Data Collection
Ondeso SystemInfo is designed with OT safety as its core priority. It collects data non-intrusively, ensuring that legacy PLCs, Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs), and industrial PCs remain completely undisturbed. You get comprehensive network data without the risk of communication timeouts or hardware failure. 2. Deep Hardware and Software Aggregation
The platform goes far beyond basic IP and MAC address tracking. It scans and catalogs:
Detailed hardware configurations (CPU, RAM, storage, motherboard specs). Installed software packages, versions, and patch levels. Active local users, groups, and access privileges. Connected peripheral devices and USB storage history. 3. Legacy and Air-Gapped System Coverage
Unlike cloud-only solutions, Ondeso SystemInfo excels in isolated or strictly firewalled production cells. It allows for flexible data collection mechanisms, meaning even your most isolated, air-gapped systems can be documented safely and brought into the central asset inventory. 4. Real-Time Change Tracking and Lifecycle Management
Industrial infrastructures are dynamic. Ondeso SystemInfo continuously monitors your environment to flag changes instantly. If a new software version is installed, a hardware component fails, or an unauthorized device connects to the network, the platform logs the event. This lifecycle history simplifies auditing and root-cause analysis during technical failures. Driving Security, Compliance, and Efficiency
Implementing Ondeso SystemInfo transforms asset tracking from a tedious administrative chore into a strategic advantage across three key pillars:
Robust OT Cybersecurity: You cannot patch a vulnerability if you do not know the software exists. By building a complete software bill of materials (SBOM), Ondeso SystemInfo allows security teams to cross-reference their inventory with known vulnerability databases (CVEs) to proactively mitigate cyber risks.
Seamless Regulatory Compliance: International standards like IEC 62443, ISO 27001, and the European NIS2 directive mandate strict asset management and risk assessments. Ondeso SystemInfo automatically generates the comprehensive documentation, reports, and audit trails required to prove compliance to external regulators.
Optimized Maintenance and Uptime: When an industrial PC fails, every second of downtime costs money. With an exact blueprint of the failed machine’s hardware and software configuration at their fingertips, maintenance technicians can deploy identical replacement images and restore operations in minutes instead of hours. Conclusion
True operational resilience begins with total visibility. Ondeso SystemInfo bridges the visibility gap between corporate IT and complex shop-floor OT, providing a single, reliable source of truth for your entire infrastructure. By delivering safe data collection, deep technical insights, and continuous change tracking, Ondeso empowers industrial enterprises to secure their assets, streamline maintenance, and confidently meet modern compliance demands.
