TXONE NETWORKS
TXOne Networks provides solutions for tackling security weaknesses prevalent across industrial environments. We listen to the needs of both leading manufacturers and critical infrastructure operators to develop the best actionable approach within partnering companies. The result is customized technology that goes beyond traditional security tools to mitigate complex challenges. Given the ICS environments are layered and composed of a variety of equipment in different operating systems, TXOne Networks offers both network-based and endpoint-based products to secure the OT network and mission critical devices in a real-time defense-in-depth manner. Both IT and OT can have comprehensive visibility regarding the ICS assets, protocols, control commands, risks, and threats. The goal is not only to maximize ICS protection, but also to keep the business and operation running even when security is being breached in some way.
