Integrations for an open architecture

Dispel and Nozomi Networks have partnered to deliver a flexible solution with on-prem and cloud-based options for asset visibility and secure remote access, purpose-built for ICS/OT networks. This integrated offering leverages Dispel’s industry-leading Moving Target Defense (MTD) SD-WAN infrastructure to deliver unmatched security and fast, scalable access control tailored to your organization’s unique requirements. By combining secure remote access, comprehensive asset visibility, advanced threat detection, and actionable operational and security insights, this solution enables organizations to protect their critical infrastructure while enhancing seamless operations.

This cloud-to-cloud based integration is scalable to support all facilities. In under two minutes, an organization can easily synchronize OT asset inventory and management from The Nozomi Networks Platform with the Dispel Zero Trust Engine and begin to deliver remote access securely to those devices. 

 

Administrators can seamlessly manage and monitor remote access connections across all facilities and systems. Asset and alert information on all OT, IoT, and ICS assets, such as PLCs, HMIs, and servers, including their ports and protocols, are synchronized to the Dispel Engine dashboard so administrators can easily choose from a list of possible remote connections to enable. When deployed together, Nozomi Networks Vantage establishes a baseline of normal device-to-device traffic patterns. During a secure remote access session, if a user demonstrates abnormal behavior, such as attempting unauthorized east-west traffic by initiating an SSH connection to another device, The Nozomi Networks Platform promptly alerts an administrator. Using the Dispel Zero Trust Engine dashboard, the admin can quickly terminate the session, preventing a potential attack before it escalates.
