Compare Astelia vs. VigiaOT

Astelia is a platform focused on attack-driven exposure management, aimed at assisting security and IT teams in pinpointing which vulnerabilities within their systems are genuinely reachable and can be exploited. By utilizing read-only integrations to map network topology, it employs advanced AI techniques to scrutinize the technical prerequisites for each vulnerability, thereby correlating data on reachability and exploitability to highlight the limited number of risks that are of true concern. Rather than solely depending on probability-based metrics, Astelia offers evidence-based prioritization that empowers organizations to navigate extensive vulnerability backlogs effectively, directing their remediation efforts toward areas that will yield the most significant benefits. Additionally, it features graph-based models that visualize potential attack pathways, illustrating how an attacker could traverse the network to compromise crucial assets. Furthermore, it identifies coverage gaps by mapping infrastructure down to the port level, uncovering unscanned assets and connections with third parties, which ultimately enhances overall security posture. This multifaceted approach ensures that security teams can streamline their efforts and allocate resources more effectively to mitigate risks.

VigiaOT serves as a solution for the identification of operational technology (OT) assets and the management of vulnerabilities within industrial facilities. The Solo editions are designed to operate on technicians' laptops running Windows or macOS, employing read-only active scans to detect industrial devices while gathering information such as vendor names, models, firmware versions, protocols, and open ports. After identifying the devices, technicians can assess their findings, keep a detailed local inventory, categorize network exposure, and export these inventory details as needed. The Solo Analytics feature enhances this process by correlating the data with sources like the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), ENISA’s EU Vulnerability Database (EUVD), and the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) list, while also prioritizing the findings and providing a structured workflow for reviewing vulnerabilities. For larger deployments across multiple workstations, Site Analytics compiles inventories on an on-premises VIGIA-IOTBOX appliance, and optional modules can facilitate passive monitoring for devices that connect to IT networks, alongside AI-driven analysis of manufacturer advisories. This product is specifically designed for industrial operations and security teams focused on the protection of OT and IT networks within plant environments, ensuring a comprehensive approach to asset management and security. By integrating both active and passive monitoring capabilities, VigiaOT enhances the overall security framework of industrial operations.
