## Summary of Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Defender for IoT (Azure)

The Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Defender for IoT integrates with the ServiceNow® Operational Technology Manager application to automate the import of Operational Technology (OT) devices and sensor appliances.
This integration enables efficient management of OT environments by ensuring that relevant data is accurately captured and represented in ServiceNow's Configuration Management Database (CMDB).

## Key Features

* **Supported Versions:** Compatible with Microsoft Defender for IoT sensor versions 22.2.3.22 and 22.2.5.9.
* **Guided Setup:** An organized setup process is available to configure the integration seamlessly.
* **CMDB Integrations Dashboard:** Provides a central view of the status and results of all installed integrations, along with filtering options for specific metrics.
* **Data Mapping:** Data from Defender for IoT is transformed into CMDB class definitions using the Robust Transform Engine (RTE) and imported using the Identification and Reconciliation Engine (IRE).
* **Connection Details:** Access connection details in a single view through the common connection framework (CCF) within the Integration Commons for CMDB.

## Key Outcomes

By implementing the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Defender for IoT, ServiceNow customers can expect:

* Automated and accurate import of OT devices and sensors into the ServiceNow CMDB.
* A streamlined process for monitoring and managing integration statuses and errors through the CMDB Integrations Dashboard.
* Improved operational efficiency in managing OT environments with automatic data updates and validation of imported sensors.  
Integrate Microsoft Defender for IoT with the ServiceNow®
Operational Technology Manager application to automate import of OT devices and sensor appliances.

Visit the [ServiceNow Store](https://store.servicenow.com/sn_appstore_store.do#!/store/home) website to view all the available apps and for information about submitting requests to the store. For cumulative release notes information for all released apps, see the [ServiceNow Store version history release notes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/store-release-notes/sn-store-release-notes.html).

## Supported versions {#integration-sgc-microsoft-defender-iot-azure__section_hh1_wnr_fzb}

Supports Microsoft Defender for IoT sensor versions:

* 22.2.3.22
* 22.2.5.9
{#integration-sgc-microsoft-defender-iot-azure__ul_yjw_xl5_21c}

## Use cases {#integration-sgc-microsoft-defender-iot-azure__section_zvw_ck4_lzb}

You can use the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Defender for IoT (Azure) with the ServiceNow®
Operational Technology Manager application to import OT devices
and sensor appliances.

## Guided setup {#integration-sgc-microsoft-defender-iot-azure__section_isq_z4r_fzb}

The guided setup for the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Defender for IoT (Azure) provides an
organized sequence of tasks to configure the integration on your instance. To access the
guided setup, see [Configure guided setup](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/EuTF0Liekxka2BKVGw_zRg "Use the guided setup for the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Defender for IoT (Azure) to lead you through the integration steps.").

## CMDB integrations dashboard {#integration-sgc-microsoft-defender-iot-azure__id_m2t_vrr_fzb}

The Integration Commons for CMDB store app provides a dashboard with a
central view of the status, processing results, and processing errors of all installed
integrations. You can see metrics for all integration runs. You can filter the view to a
specific CMDB integration, a specific time
duration, or a specific integration run. For more details about monitoring integrations
in the CMDB Integrations Dashboard, see [Integration Commons for CMDB](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=integration-commons-for-cmdb&version=australia&pubname=australia-servicenow-platform&ft:locale=en-US#section_fxg_lh4_blb).

## Data mapping {#integration-sgc-microsoft-defender-iot-azure__section_ic1_gsr_fzb}

Data from the Microsoft Defender for IoT (Azure) data sources is mapped and transformed into the ServiceNow
CMDB Configuration Item (CI) class definitions
using the Robust Transform Engine (RTE). Data is inserted into the ServiceNow
CMDB using the Identification and
Reconciliation Engine (IRE).

When you complete the setup, you can configure the integration to periodically pull data
from the Microsoft Defender for IoT (Azure)
application.  
The following table lists the data sources included for a Microsoft Defender for IoT (Azure) project and the corresponding staging tables where the imported data is loaded.{#integration-sgc-microsoft-defender-iot-azure__table_tpk_mxy_fzb__entry__2}

| Data source | Staging table |
|-|-|
| SG-OT Azure D4IoT Devices Import | SG-OT Azure D4IoT Devices Import \[sn_msftd4iotazsgc_sg_ot_azure_d4iot_devices_import\] |
| SG-OT Azure D4IoT Sensors Import | SG-OT Msft D4IoT Sensors Import \[sn_msftd4iotazsgc_sg_ot_azure_d4iot_sensors_import\] |
[Table 1. Data sources and staging tables for Microsoft Defender for IoT (Azure)]
