Microsoft Defender for IoT
Microsoft Defender for IoT is a security service that identifies IoT and OT devices, vulnerabilities and threats through agentless, network-layer monitoring.

Enterprise IoT monitoring covers devices such as printers and smart TVs through Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, and the service integrates with Microsoft Sentinel and other SIEM and SOAR tools.
