The OT Asset Inventory Handbook
This handbook is not another fluffy sales brochure. In it, we explain what is required to build
an enterprise-wide OT asset inventory, what it can be used for, and what you can expect to gain from it. As it turns out, a contextualized OT asset inventory is the foundation for multiple use cases in cyber security, engineering, and maintenance.

The OT Vulnerability Management Handbook
This handbook acts as a how-to guide for the implementation of an effective OT vulnerability management process that is repeatable and delivers measurable and meaningful reductions of the attack surface.

The OT Asset Management Handbook
You will learn about the foundation of OT asset management – a comprehensive automated OT asset inventory – and its major use cases in reducing cyber security vulnerabilities, address the business continuity risk that comes from OT product obsolescence, and leverage standard hardware and software configurations that can be audited easily. You will also learn how all these functions can be executed smoothly and without adding headcount by using a modern OT asset management tool.

The OT Asset Discovery Handbook
This handbook explains various alternatives for automatic discovery, all of which are used in real life today. We’ll check out passive sniffing as implemented in OT threat detection products, and active discovery as implemented in IT tools and in the OTbase OT asset management software. An understanding of the various technological approaches will help you make sense out of existing alternatives.
