Radiflow, Garland Technology Join Forces to Strengthen Real-Time Anomaly Detection in OT Environments

OT threat detection software gathers data from network TAPs for complete visibility and protection across the entire network 

Tel Aviv, ISRAEL – June 28, 2024 – In response to rising threats against critical infrastructure, Radiflow, a leader in Operations Technology (OT) cybersecurity and risk management solutions, has partnered with Garland Technology, a pioneer in scalable network TAPs and Data Diodes to deliver an exceptional OT security solution. This collaboration combines Radiflow’s expertise in OT cybersecurity with Garland’s packet visibility technology to deliver a cost-effective enhanced, end-to-end security solution for critical infrastructure and industrial plants.

Nation-state threat actors have increasingly focused their attention on disrupting industry and critical infrastructure. Radiflow and Garland’s partnership helps organizations detect deviations in network behavior and communication that indicates the network has been compromised. Garland’s network TAPs capture every packet and send copies of each transaction to Radiflow’s OT Security Platform for analysis. When anomalies are detected, Radiflow’s platform automatically alerts stakeholders and security personnel of a potential cyber attack, so that they can implement their incident response process.

“We are very pleased to be partnering with Garland,”  said Ilan Barda, founder and CEO of Radiflow. “Their solution enables our customers to see and monitor every network event without requiring expensive investment in intrusive switches. This solution helps put our customers on track toward NIS2 and IEC 62443 compliance.”

“Garland Technology has been involved in critical infrastructure projects since 2011 when we designed our first Data Diode TAP for a customer,” said Chris Bihary, CEO & Co-Founder. “Since then we’ve been building network visibility products to help provide technologies like Radiflow’s OT Security platform the packet level visibility needed to protect the world’s most critical assets. This exciting solution takes replicated data from our network TAPs and Data Diodes and turns it into actionable insights that facilitate precise threat detection. Together, we’ve simplified network management and security operations in closed and segregated environments that still use old and legacy network equipment while enhancing overall control and visibility.”

The collaboration between Radiflow and Garland Technology ensures complete data capture of all network transactions, enabling effective anomaly detection. This facilitates precise threat detection and reduces false positives through uninterrupted data analysis. Additionally, it maintains network performance and uptime with secured data streaming.

The joint solution is highly flexible. It adapts to a variety of network configurations, and can scale seamlessly with infrastructure changes. Security teams can monitor multiple environments from a single centralized dashboard.

This technology partnership underscores Radiflow and Garland’s commitment to OT security, as they empower operators of cyber physical systems (CPS) with the tools and insights necessary to defend against today’s cyber threats. This partnership delivers a cost-effective approach to enhanced security, while creating a clear path toward compliance with industry standards, such as NIS 2 and IEC 62443. Customers can operate their OT environments with full confidence that it is protected from current and future threats.
