Recognition for major OT security projects

Critical infrastructure, manufacturing facilities and industrial control systems are at the heart of global supply chains and are essential to our economy and everyday life. At the same time, they are increasingly vulnerable to cyber-attacks.

“As an MSSP Elite Partner, IKARUS is highly familiar with the current challenges in industrial security and strategically leverages Nozomi Networks’ innovative product portfolio to provide optimal protection for OT networks,” said Stefan Joost, Alliances and Channel Sales Director Europe at Nozomi Networks. “Thanks to its global certification and deep expertise, IKARUS is capable of securing even complex, multinational OT environments. The MSSP of the Year Award highlights IKARUS’s success in implementing numerous projects effectively.”

“The MSSP of the Year award is, for me, a testament to the IKARUS team’s dedication and our extensive practical experience,” says IKARUS COO Christian Fritz, expressing pride in his team’s accomplishments. „Our certified industrial security experts develop customized security strategies for each customer that are perfectly tailored to their specific OT systems and business requirements.“

Why MSSPs are important for OT security

Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) play a critical role in industrial security, as OT systems are increasingly targeted by cyber-attacks and have unique and demanding security requirements. Increasingly complex systems, widening attack surfaces and stringent regulatory requirements meet a rapidly growing threat and skills shortage.

IKARUS has been protecting not only IT but also OT networks for decades. In 2018, IKARUS entered a strategic partnership with Nozomi Networks to provide European companies not only with Nozomi Networks’ leading technologies, but also with complementary security services.

IKARUS’ industrial cyber security experts help companies develop a future-proof security strategy, comply with regulatory requirements and identify and mitigate threats.
