Abstract

A non-transitory computer readable medium stores instructions that, when executed by processing circuitry, cause the processing circuitry to receive an indication of a host device in an operational technology (OT) network, wherein the host device is communicatively coupled to a target device via the OT network, deploy an endpoint management agent to the host device, identify a driver based on the target device, wherein the driver enables the endpoint management agent to interface with the target device, transmit the driver to the host device, transmit a command to the host device, wherein the command is for the endpoint management agent to perform a task with the target device via the driver, receive, from the host device, data collected during or following performance of the task, and update a record associated with the target device based on the received data.
