Managing power plants and energy grids is a massive undertaking: they are a combination of Operational Technology (OT) networks, IT networks, and distributed facilities and infrastructure. Because of this, an approach that relies on remote access and monitoring is key. Obviously, we’re most interested in the monitoring aspect of this approach, and specifically: how it can be integrated into an overall management and control solution to provide an holistic overview for OT operators. To give you an idea of how monitoring fits into the picture, let’s take a look at a concrete example.
Infrastructure transparency is something that IT admins, professionals, and all who deal with infrastructure want: visibility of not only what’s in the infrastructure, but also dependencies between devices, systems and other components. At its core, infrastructure transparency means knowing everything about ALL of your IT assets. Transparency also helps you understand where your infrastructure is at risk – such as the existence of shadow IT, cyber security vulnerabilities, and more. It’s the key to transforming and optimizing your technical landscape. But how do you go about achieving this kind of transparency?
In today's highly connected industrial world, the intersection of IT (Information Technology) and OT (Operational Technology) is reshaping how businesses operate. However, this convergence also brings significant cybersecurity challenges. The rise in cyberattacks on OT systems, particularly since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, underscores the urgency for robust cybersecurity measures. Companies in the manufacturing sector, for example, have been heavily targeted, with about 90% experiencing production or energy supply disruptions due to cyberattacks.
If you work in IT or engineering, you probably know the value of having a controlled space to test new things, prove ideas, or just try to break things.

In this article, we'll guide you through setting up a home lab or testing environment for Paessler PRTG Network Monitor.
