Continuous OT‑asset discovery and risk scoring
Know every relay, RTU, switch, and firmware in real time.
About PowerSystem Center
PowerSystem Center (PSC) is a multi-function IED management platform that enables critical infrastructure asset owners to securely and centrally manage their large install base of many different intelligent electronic devices (meters, relays, RTUs, etc) deployed throughout their entire transmission and distribution system.
Core Platform Capabilities
- NERC CIP Intermediate System for IED Access Control
- Unified Relay Event File Collection and Archiving
- Unified Asset Monitoring
- Unified Data Historian Interfaces
Key Benefits
- Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements
- Integrate all devices, regardless of manufacturer or model
- Eliminate human performance issues and errors
- Protect your existing device investment
Used by dozens of the largest T&D companies in the US, PSC provides a central source of truth for all your devices with automated baseline monitoring, remote access control, and automatic scheduled password changes.
Who it serves
Built for OT Security Officers fighting spreadsheet drift.
Problem in the field
You need a current inventory without living in spreadsheets. Spreadsheets drift. Vendor tools show only their own gear. Audits need one picture.
How PSC helps
PSC maintains an always-fresh list of relays, RTUs, gateways, and switches, including firmware versions where device support exists. Discovery blends passive observation with authenticated, scheduled queries. Assets are grouped by site, vendor, and model. PSC flags issues that raise risk: outdated firmware, default or shared credentials, missing password policy coverage, and unreachable devices. End-of-support status can be tracked using vendor data you load into PSC.
Real-time updates
The view updates as networks change. New or changed devices appear quickly, with enough detail to plan action. Evidence exports feed security reviews and capital planning.
Proven impact
Slashes manual inventory work by 90%.
Evidence and control
Exports by station or time window with model, firmware, and last‑seen.
Frequently asked questions
How are devices identified?
PSC uses multiple identification methods including network scanning, protocol interrogation, device self-identification, and integration with existing network management systems. Each device gets a unique fingerprint based on MAC address, IP, model, and firmware version.
What about end‑of‑life tags?
PSC tracks end-of-life status by comparing device firmware versions against vendor lifecycle databases that you can import. Devices approaching or past end-of-support are flagged with risk scores and recommended actions, helping prioritize replacement planning.
How do you handle unsupported firmware?
Unsupported firmware versions are automatically flagged in the inventory with risk indicators. PSC can integrate with vulnerability databases to correlate unsupported versions with known security issues, providing a clear upgrade priority list.
Can you discover unknown devices?
Yes, PSC identifies new or unknown devices that appear on the network through passive monitoring and active scanning. Unknown devices are flagged for investigation and can be quarantined pending identification and approval.
How accurate is the inventory?
PSC inventory accuracy typically exceeds 98% through continuous monitoring and automated updates. The system cross-references multiple data sources and flags discrepancies for manual review, ensuring high confidence in asset data.
Supports evidence for asset and configuration records in IEC 62443 / NIS2.
