Many legacy systems were not designed with cybersecurity in mind, and traditional IT tools often fail to protect some complex, older industrial environments. SecureOT was developed to bridge this gap, helping organizations protect their OT infrastructure with technology and in-depth knowledge designed for the realities of modern industrial operations.
SecureOT combines Rockwell Automation's purpose-built SecureOT platform, professional services, and managed security services into a unified solution that delivers end-to-end protection for complex, highly regulated, legacy industrial systems.
“Cyber threats to industrial operations are evolving faster than ever, and outdated defenses simply can’t keep up,” said Matthew Fordenwalt, senior vice president of lifecycle services at Rockwell Automation. “SecureOT is more than a brand; it’s a strategic shift in how industrial organizations approach cybersecurity. We combine our deep industry expertise with OT-specific technology and services that help customers stay ahead of threats and keep operations running securely.”.
SecureOT is designed to address the specific challenges of OT environments, providing comprehensive protection at all levels of cybersecurity maturity. The SecureOT platform offers real-time asset visibility, risk prioritization, and vulnerability management across diverse vendor ecosystems.
Through its professional services, SecureOT offers strategic consulting, assessments, and technical implementation support to help organizations strengthen their security strategy. Its managed security services provide continuous 24/7 monitoring and incident response through OT's dedicated Security Operations Center (SOC) and Network Operations Center (NOC).
SecureOT conforms to globally recognized standards such as NIST CSF, NIS2 and IEC 62443, and offers a vendor-neutral approach to protecting industrial control systems and technology stacks.
“Industrial organizations need cybersecurity strategies built for the realities of OT,” explained Hollie Hennessy, principal cybersecurity analyst for OT/IoT at Omdia. “Rockwell Automation’s SecureOT addresses that need with a layered approach that integrates asset visibility, vulnerability management, and managed discovery services into a single framework. This is an important step toward industrial cybersecurity maturity.”.
Real results
SecureOT helps industry leaders transform their cybersecurity strategy:
• A leading oil and gas producer achieved complete visibility into its OT assets and resolved critical risks in its remote operations in just six months.
• A major beverage manufacturer migrated its legacy industrial network and installed IT infrastructure to a fully managed and supported infrastructure across more than 150 locations worldwide.
• An energy company doubled its NIST CSF maturity scores while delivering a significant return on investment to executive leadership.
• An electricity provider achieved secure, real-time visibility into remote substations, enabling NERC CIP compliance and cost reduction through agentless monitoring.
With SecureOT, industrial organizations can confidently mitigate risks, help maintain uptime, and run more secure operations, no matter where they are on their cybersecurity journey. To learn more about SecureOT, visit here.
