ATLANTA, Nov. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell
(NYSE: HON) and Nozomi Networks have announced a cybersecurity
partnership today to deliver more comprehensive, end-to-end
cybersecurity for Operational Technology (OT) environments. The
partnership combines Nozomi Networks' industry-leading OT &
Internet of Things (IoT) security and visibility capabilities with
the strengths of Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity software,
professional consulting and managed security services from
Honeywell. The partnership will offer comprehensive solutions to
manage cybersecurity compliance and reduce the risk of downtime due
to cyberattacks.
"Our partnership with Nozomi Networks will enable us to provide
customers with a one-stop shop for best-in-breed cybersecurity
products and services," said Jeff
Zindel, vice president and general manager, Honeywell
Connected Enterprise Cybersecurity. "With the continued rise of
cyber threats facing asset owners around the world, including
critical infrastructure, customers are looking for better and more
efficient ways to protect operating environments and reduce
cybersecurity risk. Our partnership delivers the industry's most
complete, vendor-neutral OT cybersecurity portfolio, strengthened
by Honeywell global professional and managed security
services."
With Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity software, customers access a
single dashboard to centralize security operations and asset
security management for Honeywell and non-Honeywell assets. The
software helps simplify, strengthen and scale security operations
for asset-intensive businesses facing evolving cybersecurity
threats. It can improve performance at a single site or across an
enterprise by increasing cyber risk visibility while also
decreasing cybersecurity management inefficiencies. This software
is complemented by a broad portfolio of Honeywell cybersecurity
professional services delivered by certified OT cybersecurity
experts with extensive industry domain expertise in Honeywell and
non-Honeywell environments.
Nozomi Networks' OT & IoT threat and anomaly detection
complements the Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity portfolio to help
customers identify and respond to cyber threats before they
penetrate their OT network. In addition, vulnerability assessment
capabilities help customers identify OT devices that can be
exploited in cyberattacks. Asset discovery capabilities from Nozomi
Networks combine active and passive techniques to safely identify
OT and IoT assets.
"Amid escalating cybersecurity threats to industrial targets,
our partnership with Honeywell delivers a more complete and
vendor-neutral cybersecurity offering that OT environments
require," said Nozomi Networks CEO Edgard
Capdevielle. "The offering delivers robust remote access
security and patch management with rich network visibility and
security capabilities from Nozomi Networks. We're thrilled to team
with Honeywell to give customers a fully-integrated solution that
supports the most stringent security risk and compliance
requirements."
Customers can have Nozomi Networks' software solutions installed
directly by Honeywell as either a stand-alone offering or as part
of a more comprehensive Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity solution. For
those who might not have the resources to support day-to-day
cybersecurity operations, the Nozomi Networks' solution can also be
accessed through Honeywell Forge Managed Security
Services.
