Nowadays in the market there are different Internet of Things (IoT) devices, that are used in electrical power systems. Such IoT devices can be physically, or virtually networked, with interoperable communication protocols and intelligent interfaces. IoT technologies provide their connection to the internet, as well as connection to special services and applications. Electrical power systems have traditional Enterprise resource planning (ERP), Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), Distributed control systems (DCSs), as well as traditional industrial automation stack to achieve functional integration between the company management level and the production level. Industrial IoT (IIoT) platforms should overcome the gap between Information technology (IT) and Operational technology (OT) environments. These platforms providing a more suitable data architecture for the modern industrial automation stack. The paper presents the overview of one modern solution with the Claroty IIoT platform. Claroty delivers comprehensive and reduces the complexity of OT security.
