>> The gap
Where European cyber broke.
Status quo
A stack built somewhere else.
US-headquartered vendors route customer data through American infrastructure under an EU label, then tune detection on US-government threat feeds calibrated for office-IT attacks. Legacy SIEM platforms drown analysts in alerts and miss the OT-targeted intrusions that take down a substation or a hospital. Managed-service outsourcers add procurement-diligence delays and a third party between you and your own incident. Meanwhile, NIS2 holds your management body personally accountable for the outcome.
With Pinakashield
Built in Europe, governed by EU law.
Our platform is engineered in Europe, hosted in Europe, and governed by the same law your auditors already know. Research credentials are Horizon-Europe-grade — developed inside live consortia with hospitals, grid operators, and 5G testbeds. Detection models are trained on the threats actually targeting European critical infrastructure, so the OT-targeted ransomware and supply-chain compromises that US-tuned tools miss get caught here. One vendor, one jurisdiction, one accountable team.

>> Architecture
Engineered for European sovereignty.
Sovereign data flow
Customer data never leaves the EU. Threat intelligence is shared across operators without exposing the raw events behind it — so collective defence does not require surrendering your perimeter.
Agentless OT
No kernel modules on PLCs or OT equipment. Sensors observe traffic and protocol behaviour passively, so deploying our platform does not stop a production line or touch a vendor warranty.

In the field, not in a labOur platform is developed and validated inside live EU programmes alongside hospitals, grid operators, and 5G testbeds. Threat models are calibrated against real European critical-infrastructure attacks — not benchmarked on synthetic traffic in isolation from the operators who would actually pick up the phone at three in the morning.
