Claroty Continuous Threat Detection (CTD) review
Self-hosted OT monitoring combines asset discovery, network zoning, and threat alerts.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Claroty Continuous Threat Detection (CTD) is an industrial cybersecurity product for organizations protecting operational technology and other cyber-physical systems. Its stated fit is industrial and government environments, with mid-market and enterprise teams among its target buyers. CTD builds a connected-asset inventory, maps networks into virtual zones, assesses exposure, and alerts on threats. It is a focused choice for teams that need on-premises asset and threat monitoring rather than a general-purpose security platform.
CTD’s discovery combines passive, active, and application-database methods, then centralizes the resulting XIoT asset inventory. Automatic network mapping groups assets into virtual zones, with alerts for cross-zone communication violations. The product also assesses asset exposure and vulnerabilities using CVE data, and detection engines establish behavioral baselines to generate real-time alerts on known or emerging threats. This breadth connects asset visibility, zoning, vulnerability assessment, and threat detection in one product. Teams seeking these OT-specific capabilities may value the scope; buyers whose priority is a broader range of ecosystem integrations should weigh its more focused integration list.
Deployment is self-hosted, which suits organizations that require on-premises operation but is not a fit for buyers seeking a cloud deployment of CTD. For remote-activity incident response, CTD integrates with Claroty xDome Secure Access; the listed external integration categories also include firewall and network access control solutions. Pricing is handled through sales rather than published plans, and the product page directs buyers to request a demo. Support channels include email and ticket, with 24/7 support. Choose CTD when self-hosted OT visibility, zoning, and behavioral threat alerts are central requirements; consider alternatives if cloud deployment or a wider listed integration ecosystem is essential.
