What We’re Up Against
Unplanned Downtime
A single security incident in your industrial environment can halt production lines, breach contracts, and trigger cascading losses, often before your team even identifies the source.
Complex Environments
Inconsistent security policies across plants, regions, and jurisdictions create exploitable gaps, and without centralized oversight, your exposure grows with every facility you operate.
Security Gaps
Legacy industrial environments were never built for modern AI-powered threats. Security blind spots across facilities, entry points, and connected devices leave critical operations quietly exposed.
Compliance Pressure
Compliance mandates are tightening globally. Falling short exposes your organization to penalties, audit failures, and reputational damage.
Insider Threats
Contractors, third-party vendors, and employees with access to your industrial environments are among the most overlooked threat vectors, and the hardest to control without the right solutions.
Protect Uptime, Enforce Compliance,
And Stay Resilient
OPSWAT enables industrial manufacturers to secure every entry point, enforce security policies across every site, and maintain the business and
operational continuity that production demands.
Automotive
Automotive manufacturers are prime targets, and with production downtime averaging millions in hourly losses, the stakes have never been higher. OPSWAT delivers cybersecurity solutions built to protect production uptime, defend critical assets, and keep your operations resilient against evolving threats.
Pharmaceutical & Life Sciences
Pharmaceutical manufacturers face mounting pressure to protect regulated production systems, sensitive formulation data, and complex supplier networks from cyber threats. OPSWAT secures your infrastructure, and helps you meet complex compliance standards, and keeps critical operations running without interruption.
Semiconductor & Electronics
Semiconductor fabs and electronics manufacturers operate under extreme precision requirements, valuable IP, and interconnected OT systems vulnerable to disruption. OPSWAT delivers cybersecurity solutions to protect production continuity, safeguard critical process data, and secure every access point across your manufacturing environment.
Aerospace & Defense
Aerospace and defense manufacturers must protect classified designs, mission-critical systems, and tightly regulated supply chains against sophisticated, persistent threats. OPSWAT delivers solutions built for air-gapped environments, highly regulated operations, and the uncompromising uptime demands of modern production facilities.
Use Cases
Secure Removable Media & Peripheral Devices
Inspect and sanitize files from USB drives, external drives, and contractor media to prevent malware, zero-day exploits, and unauthorized data from entering air-gapped or sensitive environments.
Prevent Zero-Day Threats at the Perimeter
Inspect and block unknown and zero-day file-based threats before they enter OT and IT environments, ensuring malware never reaches production systems or disrupts critical operations.
Detect and Respond to Network-Based Threats
Monitor and analyze network traffic across industrial environments to identify anomalous behavior, lateral movement, and advanced threats targeting interconnected OT and IT systems.
Centralized Threat Visibility & Risk Monitoring
Aggregate scan results, threat intelligence, and activity logs across all facilities into a single dashboard—enabling faster detection, correlation, and response to risks across distributed operations.
Pre-run Endpoint Protection & Device Control
Detect and scan removable media before they are made accessible, protecting critical endpoints across production environments, preventing USB-borne threats, maintaining operational continuity, and ensuring secure data transfers.
Scan and Verify Transient Devices & Operational Devices
Scan and verify vendor laptops, maintenance devices, temporary systems, and operational assets before they connect to critical manufacturing environments or while they remain operational inside air-gapped networks, reducing supply chain risk and helping prevent threats from reaching production systems.
Secure File Transfers Across Operations
Protect file transfers between network broaders, plants, external partners, and suppliers by scanning and sanitizing content in motion—ensuring safe data exchange without slowing production workflows.
