Protecting the core of your operation
Industrial control systems (ICS) are increasingly under threat from cyber-attacks. From system ransoms to pipeline shutdowns, the effects can be crippling – operationally and reputationally. Today, perimeter defenses are not enough. Our built-in global cybersecure technology safeguards your operation from the inside out.
Connect everything to everyone.
By using intelligent communication capabilities, you can connect your operations using the Avalon core IT/OT platform and have complete access to the operational condition of your equipment and the ability to perform higher-level analytics for facility optimization.
This is how, and why, we can promise a step change in reliability and productivity – our solution to your real-world challenges.
Secure by design
From concept to continual development, security is embedded throughout our product range.
Taking security to the next level
We apply the most robust defenses to our technology, so you’re protected to the highest possible standard. We engineer everything to adhere to SL-4 requirements.
- SL-1 Prevents against casual threats
- SL-2 Designed for intentional but low-complex attacks
- SL-3 Defends against sophisticated cyber risks
- SL-4 Provides the highest level of security for critical infrastructure. The Sensia standard
360º security
While our cybersecurity operates to the highest protocols, it’s also user-sensitive, giving you complete protection that adds value
Access Control & Authentication
Role-based security allows only authorized individuals to access sensitive systems
Secure Data Collection & Transmission
Encrypted communications that safeguard your valuable data from unauthorized access and distribution
Continuous Monitoring & Improvements
Regular firmware updates, security patches, and ongoing system checks help keep you ahead of threats
Cyber myths debunked
Myth #1: Industrial systems are not online
Reality: Most industrial control systems have multiple entry points, for example, Wi-Fi, remote access, or USB
Myth #2: A firewall is enough to secure an ICS
Reality: Firewalls, while valuable, cannot prevent a cyberattack alone
Myth #3: Hackers don’t understand industrial systems
Reality: Hacking tools for industrial-scale systems are widely available and discussed at cybersecurity conferences
Myth #4: Our facility is not a target
Reality: All systems can be a potential target, and even lower-risk sites suffer collateral damage from cyber incidents
Myth #5: Safety systems are enough to prevent harm
Reality: Cyberattacks can disable or manipulate Safety Instrument Systems
