Stop Threats Before They Stop Production

Secure the paths into production across IT, OT, and remote access - with one platform to enforce, govern, and prove policy.

Manufacturing carries a particular kind of risk: when something gets through, the damage does not stay digital. It can disrupt output, raise safety concerns, and trigger compliance issues - fast. And the pressure is rising: manufacturing is the most targeted industry for ransomware, with average ransom demands reaching $1.16 million. In that environment, resilience comes down to enforceable control - without disrupting production.

What disruption looks like

+146% Increase in cyberattacks

with physical impact

~$400K Cost of unplanned

downtime per hour

1585 Avg. weekly attacks per manufacturer

Maintenance windows are limited - known vulnerabilities stay open for weeks or months Vendor remote access is always on - one compromise can reach production IT-OT boundaries aren’t enforced consistently - zone boundaries weakens over time Each plant evolves differently - rules drift plant by plant and proof gets harder

The Gaps Attackers Rely On

Stop Attack Paths, Not Production

We secure the paths that matter most - into production, across plant environments, and through third-party access - with enforceable control, not visibility alone. Built on a Hybrid Mesh architecture, our platform gives you one place to control policy across IT, OT, and external access, so control stays consistent across sites while enforcement adapts to local realities. The result is tighter control, reduced exposure, and greater operational resilience - without redesign, tool sprawl, added complexity, or production disruption.

The critical paths we control

Exposure

IT-to-OT Boundary Protection - control what can cross into OT

Allow only approved IT-DMZ-OT connections. Enforce boundary segmentation and application control, with IPS where enforced, and audit-ready visibility into activity.

Zero Trust Remote Access - control who gets in and where

Give vendors/OEMs access only to the OT assets and apps they need. Apply ZTNA-based access so compromised credentials don't become production reach.

Production Floor Micro Segmentation - control how far issues can spread

Enforcement boundaries inside OT so issues stay local. Allow only required flows between zones/cells using protocol-aware enforcement (DPI) and allow-only policy.

Virtual Patching - control risk when patching isn't possible

Reduce exposure on always-on OT systems with virtual patching - IPS protections - without touching the machine or waiting for maintenance windows.

Every enforcement point. One platform.

We enforce control at every point where an attack can enter, move, or cause damage - from remote access through enterprise IT and down to the production floor - so a single compromise doesn't become a plant-wide event.

1. IT-to-OT Boundary Protection - Control what can cross into OT When an IT endpoint is compromised, the boundary determines whether it stays an IT incident or becomes an OT event.

What We Enforce

Approved crossings only - no direct IT-to-OT connections by default

Results Only approved connections reach OT systems If IT is compromised, impact is contained at the boundary instead of reaching production Boundary changes and exceptions become governed and auditable, not tribal knowledge

Proof Allowed/blocked/exceptions + connection approvals + change history

Default-deny at the boundary - allow only approved connections and applications

Governed exceptions - clear ownership, justification, and change control

Authenticated admin access - who accessed what, when, and what changed

Inline inspection/IPS at enforced crossings

2. Zero Trust Remote Access - Control who gets in and where Vendor and OEM access keeps operations running - but broad, persistent access becomes a standing path into OT.

What We Enforce

Least-privilege access - vendors connect only to approved OT assets and applications

Results Vendors get the access they need - nothing more Compromised vendor credentials don’t become broad OT reach Access becomes governed and auditable across plants and teams

Proof Approved targets + session logs + access history and exception ownership

Strong authentication and access controls (MFA where required)

Segmented reach by user, role, application, and zone - not flat network access

Session visibility and logging - who accessed what, when, and what they did

Explicit approvals and exception handling for any expanded access

3. Production Floor Micro-Segmentation - Control how far issues can spread When OT zones are too open, a local issue can move laterally across lines and cells and become a plant-wide event.

What We Enforce

Default-deny segmentation between zones and cells

Results Only required flows run between zones and cells If one area is compromised, impact stays local East-west activity becomes governed, visible, and auditable

Proof Allowed flows map + east-west logs + exception ownership + change history

Allow only OT flows between zones based on operational need

Protocol-aware inspection and enforcement for OT traffic

Application Control for approved industrial / SCADA communications

4. Virtual Patching - Control risk when patching isn’t possible In OT, patching often lags reality - always-on systems and change windows mean exposure stays in place longer than anyone wants.

What We Enforce

Network-layer compensating controls to reduce exposure when patching isn’t possible

Results Known exploit paths are reduced even when patching must wait Exposure is contained without touching the asset Teams gain a more practical way to protect always-on systems while maintenance windows remain limited

Proof Blocked exploit attempts + applied IPS protections + exception history + mitigation records

IPS protections aligned to real exposure and the traffic behind the asset

Block known exploit attempts at enforcement points (where deployed)

Visibility into exploit attempts and applied mitigations for prioritization and proof

Exception handling and policy changes governed and auditable

OT professional services support the full path - from risk assessment and architecture planning through segmentation design, deployment, implementation, and ongoing optimization and operational support in live production environments - with alignment to frameworks such as IEC 62443 and NIST ICS guidance throughout. The outcome is faster time-to-control with clearer governance, documentation, and Day 2 readiness.

OT discovery integrations and IoT security do more than identify assets - they turn OT context into action. Through Open Garden and integrations with platforms such as Claroty and Nozomi, Check Point feeds asset, tag, and vulnerability intelligence into enforcement and investigation workflows - so segmentation reflects the real environment, remediation is prioritized by exposure, and protection lands where it matters most.

Industrial-grade, solid-state gateways built for harsh plant-floor conditions - wide temperature ranges (-40°C to 75°C), tolerance for vibration and electrical noise, and rugged/maritime-certified options. Models support wired and wireless connectivity (Wi-Fi + LTE/5G), with resilience features like cellular failover and redundant power - keeping enforcement running even in the toughest environments.
