Enrich Windows workstation and server data with a local script (Public preview)
In addition to detecting OT devices on your network, use Defender for IoT to discover Microsoft Windows workstations and servers and enrich workstation and server data for devices already detected. Same as other detected devices, detected Windows workstations and servers are displayed in the Device inventory. The Device inventory pages on the sensor show enriched data about Windows devices, including data about the Windows operating system and applications installed, patch-level data, open ports, and more.
View the device applications report
After you download and run the script, then import the device details to your sensor, you can view your devices' applications with a custom data mining report.
To view the devices' applications:
Sign into your OT sensor console, and select Data mining.
Your devices applications report is shown in the My reports area.
