IoT/OT Security
See every device. Even the unmanaged ones.
Cato IoT/OT Security extends protection to IoT and OT environments with real-time device discovery and classification, granular policy enforcement, and comprehensive threat prevention.
Control what each device touches.
Set access policies by device characteristic or by group.
One platform. No new appliances.
As a native feature of the Cato SASE Cloud Platform, IoT/OT Security eliminates complex integration and the sprawl of point solutions.
Unmanaged devices are unseen risk.
IoT/OT blind spots
Unmanaged IoT and OT devices go undiscovered, leaving a critical attack surface no one fully sees.
An expanding attack surface
Every connected device that can reach internal and external resources widens the enterprise's exposure.
Security product sprawl
Traditional IoT/OT security means deploying and integrating multiple hardware and software solutions — adding complexity, gaps, and latency.
Disconnected management
Moving between separate dashboards across multiple solutions makes IoT/OT incidents hard to identify and understand.
Discover every device.
Govern every connection.
Unmanaged IoT and OT devices expand the attack surface in ways agents can't reach. Cato discovers and classifies every device, then segments and protects it through the same cloud platform — no additional sensors or appliances required.

Purpose-built AI/ML fingerprint devices across IT, IoT, and OT — mapping type, manufacturer, and version, with no integration required.
Enforce granular policy
Control device access to internal and external resources by characteristic or by group, shrinking the attack surface.
Prevent threats natively
Apply the full Cato Threat Prevention stack — IPS, NGAM, Sandbox, DNS security, and inline AI/ML — to IoT/OT devices.
IoT/OT security that works as hard as your devices
IoT/OT Security Capabilities
Instant device discovery and classification
Purpose-built, trained AI and ML fingerprint devices on the network, mapping their type, manufacturer, and version.
- Effortless visibility across IT, IoT, and OT
- Map device type, manufacturer, and version
- No integration required — native to the platform
Granular policy enforcement
Access policies can be set based on specific device characteristics or, for efficiency, by grouping by type, manufacturer, or model.
- Set policy by device characteristic
- Group by type, manufacturer, or model
- Control access to internal and external resources
Holistic threat prevention
Cato's Threat Prevention leverages multiple advanced engines to safeguard IoT/OT devices against known and zero-day threats.
- IPS, NGAM, Sandbox, DNS security, and inline AI/ML
- Protect IoT/OT against known and zero-day threats
- All native to the Cato SASE Cloud
Simplified management
IoT/OT Security is a native feature of the Cato Management Application, with dashboards and reports consistent with every other capability.
- Native to the Cato Management Application
- Consistent dashboards, logs, events, and objects
- No new interface to learn or integrate
Security products sprawl elimination
A single cloud-delivered solution replaces the sprawl of hardware and software point products, converging IoT/OT security and networking.
- Retire multiple IoT/OT hardware and software products
- Close the security gaps and latency that sprawl creates
- Robust security with no operational overhead
