OT Network Monitoring Made Easy: SCADA, Modbus, OPC UA, and IIoT with PRTG

This article highlights the growing need for comprehensive monitoring of Operational Technology (OT) environments due to increased connectivity and cybersecurity threats. Traditional IT monitoring tools aren't equipped to handle the unique protocols and sensitive nature of OT systems like SCADA, Modbus, and OPC UA. PRTG offers a unified solution by directly supporting these industrial protocols, providing crucial visibility into OT assets and enabling proactive detection of issues – from downtime to potential cyberattacks – without disrupting critical processes.
