Industrial network security under control – Nozomi Networks

By January 22, 2020April 6th, 2020District Heating, Energy, Gas & Oil, Smart Grid

For years we have specialized in the area of network infrastructure inventory. During the implementation of projects and discussions with clients we have noticed that this topic also concerns the area of industrial automation (Operational Technology). In order to support our customers in this area as well, we have included in our portfolio the products of Nozomi Networks – the leader in Operational Technology (OT) and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) security solutions.

For decades, OT and ICT systems and infrastructure have been responsible for overseeing key processes in various industries – manufacturing, mining, energy, utilities, logistics and many other sectors. Until recently, these systems were isolated from each other, but we can encounter many industrial environments where OT and ICT systems work together online.

The integration of OT and ICT systems has a number of advantages. On the other hand, it also involves ensuring the safety of operational resources that are part of industrial networks such as controllers, sensors, production lines, control and supervision systems (SCADA). In the case of breaches of operational infrastructure security as a result of cyber-attacks, their operation may be disrupted and in the most extreme cases, they may be completely destroyed.
