In the INVENTORY/SYSTEMS section you will find a list of any OT systems that you or fellow OTbase users have defined.
A "system" in OTbase is a set of OT devices that operate in concert to achieve one overarching purpose. If any system component fails, the system as a whole will usually fail.
The best example of an OT system is a Distributed Control System (DCS), or a machine line in discrete manufacturing.
Modeling your OT systems in OTbase has some major advantages:
- You will get a comprehensive system documentation in form of the system profile.
- You can approve and manage configuration releases, and OTbase will tell you if all system components are still conformant with the configuration as approved. In other words, OTbase automatically monitors configuration drift for you.
- OTbase automatically builds a network topology diagram that shows how system components are networked among each other.
- You can model cyber-physical dependencies, which goes a long way towards appropriate network segregation.
