Radiflow and Garland Technology: Revolutionizing Real-time Anomaly Detection in OT Environments with Network TAPs for Complete Visibility and Protection
Radiflow and Garland Technology are collaborating to enhance real-time anomaly detection in operational technology (OT) environments. The platform for detecting threats in OT environments uses data from network TAPs to ensure full visibility and protection throughout the network.
Radiflow, a company specializing in cybersecurity and risk management solutions for Operations Technology (OT), has teamed up with Garland Technology, a company known for their network test access points (TAPs) and Data Diodes, to create a comprehensive OT security solution. This partnership merges Radiflow's OT cybersecurity knowledge with Garland's packet visibility technology to provide a cost-efficient and improved security solution for critical infrastructure and industrial facilities.
State-sponsored hackers are now more interested in causing disruptions in industrial systems and important infrastructure. By working together, Radiflow and Garland are helping operators identify unusual patterns in network activity and communication that could signal a security breach. Garland's network TAPs gather all communication data and send it to Radiflow's OT Security Platform for quick analysis. When unusual activity is detected, Radiflow's platform immediately notifies relevant parties and security personnel about a possible cyber attack, allowing them to respond efficiently.
Ilan Barda, the Founder and CEO of Radiflow, expressed his satisfaction in collaborating with Garland. He mentioned that Garland's solution allows their customers to observe and track all network events without the need for costly and invasive switches. This partnership will assist their customers in achieving NIS2 and IEC 62443 compliance.
Chris Bihary, CEO & Co-Founder of Garland Technology, shared that the company has been working on important infrastructure projects since 2011. Their first Data Diode TAP was created for a specific customer. Since then, they have been developing network visibility products to support technologies like Radiflow’s OT Security Platform. This solution utilizes data from their network TAPs and Data Diodes to enhance threat detection by providing actionable insights. Together, they have improved network management and security operations in environments with older network equipment, while also increasing control and visibility.
By working together, Radiflow and Garland Technology guarantee that all network activities are fully recorded, allowing for accurate identification of unusual behavior. This helps in detecting threats accurately and minimizing false alarms by continuously analyzing data. Furthermore, it ensures that network performance and availability are maintained with secure data transfer.
The integrated solution is very versatile and can easily adjust to different network setups, growing alongside any changes in infrastructure. Security teams have the ability to oversee multiple environments through a centralized dashboard.
The collaboration between Radiflow and Garland emphasizes their dedication to securing operational technology (OT), providing operators of cyber physical systems (CPS) with the means to protect against present and future cyber threats. This partnership offers a cost-efficient way to improve security and ensures compliance with industry regulations like NIS 2 and IEC 62443. Customers can confidently run their OT systems knowing they are shielded from potential dangers.
