Vulnerability Management

The Dragos Platform provides risk-based OT vulnerability management with prioritization guidance to help defenders mitigate vulnerabilities without disrupting operations.

Vulnerability Prioritization: Focus on the 3-6% That Need Attention Now
OT cyber security teams face thousands of vulnerabilities each year, but the challenge is knowing which demands action and how to respond without risking operations.

The Dragos Platform delivers purpose-built OT vulnerability management. It aligns hardware, software, and OS vulnerabilities to assets, applies OT-specific context, and provides clear “Now, Next, Never” guidance. Weekly Knowledge Packs ensure defenders work from continuously updated data and recommendations.
The Dragos Difference: From Noise to Action

Traditional IT vulnerability tools overwhelm defenders with noise and unsafe guidance. The Dragos Platform is purpose-built for OT, combining analyst-reviewed vulnerability data, clear prioritization, and operationally safe guidance to protect critical environments.

“Now, Next, Never” Prioritization
Our proprietary OT vulnerability prioritization approach ensures teams know what to address immediately, what can wait, and what to monitor—bringing clarity and focus unmatched by traditional vulnerability management methods.
OT-Corrected Vulnerability Data
Dragos experts provide OT-corrected CVSS scores – not generic CVSS scoring—ensuring prioritization reflects industrial realities across hardware, software, and OS.
Operationally Safe Guidance
Dragos provides expert-developed guidance for OT vulnerability management. Recommendations may include immediate patching or ICS vulnerability remediation alternatives such as segmentation, access controls, or configuration changes.
Continuously Updated Vulnerability Matching
The Dragos Platform links vulnerabilities directly to assets in your inventory for precise context across hardware, software, and OS. Weekly Knowledge Packs deliver new CVEs, OT-vulnerability data scoring, and detections to keep analysis current.

What Our Customers Are Saying
  • What’s been helpful with Dragos is not just the technology, but the expertise that they bring to the table. Koch can now identify ICS/OT threats, rapidly pinpoint malicious behavior on their ICS/OT networks, provide an in-depth context of alerts, and reduce false positive alerts for complete threat detection.
    Gabe Green, CISO Koch Industries
  • We were initially focused on anomaly detection software and originally thought that we would benefit from the ability to see and react to alerts. But we quickly realized that the majority of those solutions just weren’t as mature as we needed. This awareness led us to consider OT visibility platforms in general, and the conversation pretty much started and stopped with Dragos.
    CISO, Electric and Water Utility
  • With the visibility provided by the Dragos Platform, automated monitoring capabilities alert the security team to potentially malicious behavior between assets and communications, so they can rapidly investigate and respond before attackers can progress.

Why Choose Dragos for Risk-Based Vulnerability Management
Built for OT
Generic IT vulnerability tools overwhelm OT defenders with irrelevant alerts and unsafe guidance. The Dragos Platform is purpose-built for industrial systems with zero downtime requirements and legacy equipment.
Prioritization You Can Act On
With OT-corrected vulnerability data and the “Now, Next, Never” framework, Dragos gives defenders confidence they are focusing on the right vulnerabilities—and not wasting effort on noise.
Backed by OT Experts
Behind the Platform are Dragos vulnerability researchers and threat intelligence analysts who review and correct vulnerability guidance and scoring. Knowledge Packs deliver that expertise—not just raw data—directly into your environment weekly.
Guide

FAQs

OT vulnerability management must account for uptime, safety, and legacy systems. Unlike traditional IT approaches, Dragos adds OT-specific context and provides guidance with safe alternatives when patching isn’t practical.

IT tools miss OT assets, overwhelm with irrelevant alerts, and assume patching is always possible. Dragos provides OT-corrected vulnerability data and operationally safe guidance tailored for industrial environments.

Our platform performs comprehensive industrial control systems vulnerability analysis, then applies OT-specific context and threat intelligence to prioritize vulnerabilities using our “Now, Next, Never” methodology. This ICS risk-based vulnerability management approach helps teams focus on the 3-6% of vulnerabilities that pose the most risk to operations.

Dragos analysts deliver OT-specific guidance with safe alternatives such as segmentation, access restrictions, or configuration changes — reducing risk while maintaining uptime until patching can be scheduled.
