Deploy Defender for IoT for OT monitoring

Microsoft via Microsoft Learn

Overview

  • Module 1: Learn how to plan your deployment of Microsoft Defender for IoT to monitor your OT network.

    By the end of this module, you'll be able to:

    • Describe the stages and the roles involved to deploy Microsoft Defender for IoT
    • Organize the locations and systems across your network into sites and zones
    • Choose a sensor connection method to use for my deployment
    • Identify the users and roles your teams use with Defender for IoT
  • Module 2: Learn how to prepare your deployment of Microsoft Defender for IoT to monitor your OT network.

    By the end of this module, you'll be able to:

    • Analyze a network diagram to identify devices and subnets to monitor with Defender for IoT.
    • Analyze a network diagram to identify where to place Defender for IoT network sensors and how they should be configured.
    • Choose a traffic mirroring method for each sensor.
    • Compare the appliance options available for use with Defender for IoT network sensors.
  • Module 3: Learn how to onboard an OT sensor as part of the deployment of Microsoft Defender for IoT to monitor your OT network.

    By the end of this module, you'll be able to:

    • Onboard an OT sensor to Defender for IoT
  • Module 4: Learn how to deploy an OT sensor to Microsoft Defender for IoT

    By the end of this module, you'll be able to:

    • Deploy Defender for IoT software to a virtual appliance
  • Module 5: Learn how to fine tune and calibrate your deployment of Microsoft Defender for IoT to monitor your OT network.

    By the end of this module, you're able to:

    • Control the traffic monitored by your sensor by fine-tuning the subnets defined and detected device details
    • Create a baseline of OT network traffic for your sensor to compare against when learning mode is completed
    • Update the sensor from learning to operational mode when alerts accurately represent the network activity
