Keeping your operational technology safe and sound

Our solutions

Covering the need for OT security

Guard Cyber Security is a collection of products and services that look after the network and information security for Operational Technology (OT) – in other words, technology that controls physical processes. Such technology is generally connected to a complex infrastructure with many different attack vectors. Therefore, the risk profile of such systems tend to differ significantly from Information Technology (IT).

As a result of the different needs that are placed on OT and IT systems, respectively, the respective requirements for information security are also very different. This is also supported by the recent developments in hacker attacks targeted specifically towards operational technology.

Guard is an independent supplier of automation and system integration with expertise from most industrial technology platforms and communication solutions, as well as OT security. This puts us in a unique position to look after the accessibility, integrity and confidentiality of your industrial data.
