iolite Secure Garland Technology tech partner solution

See what's real. Know what changes. Protect what matters most.

Garland Network TAPs give iolite Secure a trusted, one-way copy of OT traffic. iolite turns it into an accurate asset inventory and real change alerts, without the overhead of a complex platform.

The challenge

OT visibility without enterprise-scale complexity

Many OT sites need to know what's on their network and when it changes, but they can't staff or run a heavy security platform. iolite Secure and Garland Technology deliver a joint OT asset inventory and monitoring solution built for exactly those sites.

Garland supplies the trusted traffic copy. iolite turns it into local asset and behavior context.

  1. 01

    Phantom and duplicate asset records

    Inventories fill with devices that don't exist or appear twice, so no one trusts the list.

  2. 02

    False-positive vulnerability alerts

    Speculative matches bury teams in findings that don't apply to their real devices.

  3. 03

    Enterprise-scale overhead

    Platforms built for large SOCs bring servers, cloud links and complexity small sites can't support.

  4. 04

    Limited staff and connectivity

    Lean teams run sites that have little or no network connection back to headquarters.

Built for the sites that keep things running

  • Traffic signals
  • Water and wastewater
  • Electric utilities
  • Municipal systems
  • Small manufacturing
  • Remote and offline OT
How it works

From a trusted traffic copy to local, actionable context

Garland TAPs copy traffic from selected OT links. iolite Secure builds a baseline from what it actually observes and points your team to what changed. Select the diagram to view it full size.

Joint architecture

Passive OT visibility with iolite Secure and Garland Technology

  1. Access trafficGarland copper or fiber TAPs copy traffic from selected OT links to a monitoring port. Live control traffic stays on its normal path, and a data diode design enforces one-way flow through hardware separation.
  2. Build the baselineiolite passively discovers assets from observed communications and learns normal network behavior.
  3. Focus on changesOT-aware detectors flag new or changed assets, unusual communication patterns and events that need review.
  4. Respond locallyOperators review device context and use response playbooks at the edge, even without internet access.
Garland Technology supplies

The trusted traffic copy: purpose-built copper and fiber TAPs that deliver reliable, out-of-band visibility without depending only on switch SPAN.

iolite Secure delivers

Local asset and behavior context: evidence-based inventory, behavioral baselines and change detection that a small team can act on.

Explore the joint solution

  • Pillar 01

    Inventory with confidence

    Evidence-based discovery reduces duplicate and phantom records and separates observed facts from assumptions.

  • Pillar 02

    Less vulnerability noise

    Findings are based on observed device evidence and behavior rather than speculative matches.

  • Pillar 03

    Fit the real world

    Runs at the edge on modest hardware, including disconnected sites, with no heavy server or cloud dependency.

  • More accurate asset inventory
  • Less alert noise
  • Lightweight local operation
  • No dedicated cybersecurity team required
