We map every connected machine on the floor — robots, PLCs, sensors, maintenance laptops, the tablet a contractor brought in last Tuesday. Anything that talks on the network gets watched, in plain language an operations manager can act on.
Smart Factories, Smarter Security
Connected factories and supply chains face industrial ransomware, insider misuse, and compromised software updates from third-party suppliers. A single breach can halt a production line for days and cost millions.

>> What we see in this sector
Threat 01 / 05
Industrial ransomware that takes production controllers hostage and halts an entire plant.
Threat 02 / 05
A vendor software update that quietly installs an attacker's foothold on the factory floor.
Threat 03 / 05
Insider misuse during a maintenance window, when access controls are temporarily loosened.
Threat 04 / 05
Lateral movement from the office network into operational machinery the office team never sees.
Threat 05 / 05
Sensor data being tampered with, so the line looks healthy while quality silently drifts.
>> Regulatory context
Manufacturers of essential products fall under NIS2 as Essential Entities. The EU Cyber Resilience Act is bringing security duties to every connected product placed on the EU market. Dual-use components add export-control compliance to the mix. The cost of getting this wrong is now both downtime and regulation.

02
When a line segment turns hostile, we isolate just that part of the floor on the fly — one cell, one robot, one vendor link — while the rest of production keeps running. Traffic-flood attacks aimed at controllers are blocked before they take the line down.
03
Production controllers and engineering workstations roll back to a known-good state, with a forensic trail your auditors and your supply-chain partners can both work from. Down minutes, not down days.
Technical detail — named protocols, threat-actor TTPs, post-quantum primitive references — lives in the downloadable Technical Architecture Brief (forthcoming).
>> An anonymized scenario
European tier-1 automotive supplier · 6 production lines across 3 countries · contained a supply-chain compromise inside the maintenance window — zero downtime.
When the production line can't stop. Talk to the team engineering it — a 30-minute call, no slide deck, just your environment and what we would change first.
