In the industrial sector, cybersecurity is not just about protecting data; it is about keeping the machinery running. The convergence of office networks (IT) and operational networks (OT) has opened the door to new threats: ransomware that enters through an administrative email can paralyse an entire production plant in minutes.
At NW Cyberguard we speak the language of industry. We offer specific solutions to protect factory environments, SCADA systems and IoT devices, ensuring that your production process does not stop because of a digital incident.
Modern factories face unique risks that traditional antivirus software cannot cover.
We deploy a defence-in-depth strategy designed not to interfere with latency or plant operations.
The golden rule in industry: "Keep the fire from spreading from the office to the factory". We use our Next-Generation Firewalls to create sealed security zones (segmentation). We isolate the administrative network (IT) from the operational network (OT), ensuring that an infection on an accounting computer cannot reach the PLCs or robots on the assembly line.
Machines behave predictably. Our 24x7 SOC monitors your network traffic to detect subtle anomalies: a thermostat sending data to an unknown server or a connection attempt outside working hours. We detect the threat before it impacts production.
Your machinery suppliers need to connect to provide support. We replace insecure connections (TeamViewer, open RDP) with encrypted, controlled VPNs, ensuring that only the right people get in, when they should and where they should.
No. Our Perimeter Security and monitoring systems are passive or act at the network perimeter, and are specifically designed for low-latency environments. We do not install intrusive agents on your PLCs or sensitive control systems.
Yes. It is the most common scenario. Since the device itself ("endpoint") cannot be protected, we protect it by isolating it in a segmented network and monitoring all traffic in and out of it (perimeter protection), creating a "virtual shield" around it.
We implement secure access portals with multi-factor authentication (MFA). The supplier only accesses the specific VPN tunnel for their machine, with no visibility of the rest of the factory network, and every session is logged and audited.
Take the first step towards a cyber-resilient company.
