What is Claroty
Claroty is an operational technology (OT) cybersecurity platform used to discover, monitor, and protect industrial control systems and connected cyber-physical environments. It supports use cases such as asset inventory, vulnerability and risk management, network segmentation planning, threat detection, and secure remote access for third parties and internal teams. The product is typically used by OT security teams, plant operations, and industrial network engineers in manufacturing, energy, utilities, and other critical infrastructure environments. It differentiates through OT-focused asset visibility and risk context across industrial protocols and environments, including integrations with enterprise security tooling.
Deep OT asset visibility
Claroty focuses on identifying OT and industrial IoT assets, including controllers, HMIs, engineering workstations, and other industrial endpoints. It uses OT-aware methods (including passive monitoring and protocol context) to build inventories and relationships that are difficult to obtain from general IT security tools. This supports practical tasks such as identifying unmanaged devices, mapping communications, and prioritizing remediation based on operational context.
Risk and vulnerability context
The platform links discovered assets to vulnerability and exposure information to support OT-specific risk workflows. It helps teams prioritize actions by combining asset criticality, network exposure, and known weaknesses rather than relying on generic severity scores alone. This is useful in environments where patching windows are limited and compensating controls are often required.
Secure remote access for OT
Claroty provides OT-oriented secure remote access capabilities designed for vendors and remote engineers who need controlled access to industrial environments. Typical controls include identity-based access, session monitoring/recording, and policy enforcement aligned to least privilege. This can reduce reliance on ad-hoc VPN access and improve auditability for regulated or safety-sensitive sites.
Complex deployment and tuning
OT environments vary widely by site, protocol mix, and network architecture, which can make initial deployment and ongoing tuning non-trivial. Achieving high-fidelity visibility and alert quality often requires coordination across OT operations, networking, and security teams. Organizations should plan for implementation effort, including sensor placement decisions and integration work.
Not a SCADA control system
Although it operates in SCADA and ICS environments, Claroty does not replace SCADA/HMI platforms or industrial data historians used for process control and production operations. Teams still need separate systems for control, data acquisition, and manufacturing execution workflows. Buyers evaluating it alongside industrial IoT and SCADA software should treat it primarily as a security layer.
Ongoing data and licensing costs
Continuous monitoring, asset enrichment, and log retention can increase infrastructure and operational overhead, especially across many sites. Licensing is typically aligned to scale factors such as assets, sensors, or sites, which can become significant in large industrial estates. Budgeting should include integration, storage/retention, and operational staffing for sustained value.
