Course Overview

The Monitoring OT environments with Paessler PRTG course by Paessler equips IT and OT professionals with specialized skills to secure and optimize industrial networks using PRTG’s native sensor capabilities. Designed for roles such as OT Network Engineers, Industrial IT Specialists, and Cybersecurity Analysts, this training addresses the growing demand for unified monitoring in critical infrastructure. With over 289 professionals certified as PRTG Monitoring Experts in 2025 alone, organizations increasingly rely on skilled practitioners to bridge IT/OT gaps, reduce downtime, and meet compliance mandates like NIS-2. This course prepares learners for real-world challenges in manufacturing, energy, and utilities where seamless integration of operational visibility is essential.

Participants gain hands-on experience with key industrial protocols and tools including OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus, SNMP, REST API, and the PRTG OPC UA Server. The lab environment features a cloud-based platform with dual virtual machines: one running PRTG and PRTG OPC UA Server, and another hosting an Ignition SCADA system. Students configure sensors to monitor real devices such as Beckhoff PLCs, Moxa switches, Rittal PDUs, and Mosquito Broker MQTT instances. A core project involves integrating PRTG with SCADA systems to display IT health alerts directly in the OT interface, demonstrating end-to-end monitoring without modifying existing control systems.

This training prepares candidates for the Paessler Certified Monitoring Expert credential, a globally recognized certification validating expertise in deploying scalable monitoring solutions across complex IT/OT environments. Certified professionals are in high demand, with job roles offering salaries ranging from €54,500 to €72,000 annually.
