Wago / Radiflow
Partnership for OT security
Wago, a provider of electrical connection and automation technology, and Radiflow, a specialist in OT cyber security, are entering into a partnership and pooling their expertise. Together, they want to strengthen resilience against potential cyber threats.
"At Wago, we believe that protecting digital and electrical assets goes beyond the physical components - it requires a comprehensive approach to cyber security. We want to support our customers in effectively protecting their systems from ever-changing cyber threats," says Thomas Burklé, Vice President Automation Sales & Industry Management EMEA. The companies want to offer comprehensive OT security solutions that are tailored to the individual needs of specific markets such as smart factory, smart building and smart energy.
By integrating Radiflow's cyber security software solutions into Wago's products and services, customers will benefit in a variety of ways:
- The 'Wago Cyber Security Network Sight' software is based on Radiflow's 'iSID' and enables real-time monitoring and detection of anomalous network behavior. Continuous monitoring helps companies to detect cyber threats at an early stage and react to them as quickly as possible.
- 'Wago Cyber Security Analysis', based on Radiflow's 'Ciara', is an automated risk assessment and management platform for companies in the industrial and building sectors. Based on the analysis results, users can implement robust strategies for network segmentation and significantly minimize the risk of unauthorized access.
- With the help of 'Wago Cyber Security Analysis', resource management tailored to the customer is created and a risk assessment is carried out. This makes it possible to keep an up-to-date inventory of implemented OT measures, proactively identify vulnerabilities and measure the effectiveness of risk mitigation strategies.
