Let us delve deeper into the insights of Xage Security and its marvelous journey!

 

Identity-based Access Management

Frequently, access control in operational technology (OT) systems is an all-or-nothing situation. Once an individual, be it a user or an attacker, gains entry into the network, they can access any device without further authentication. Additionally, access from one device to another is unregulated, making it easy for an attacker to move laterally through the network after compromising a single device. A novel approach to access control is necessary to minimize the attack surface and secure the interconnected OT, IT, and cloud environments of today. Identity-based access management shields your assets from some of the most prevalent and effective attack methods, such as the exploitation of vulnerable systems and the use of stolen credentials. Rather than merely detecting in-progress attacks, take action to stop them. Cyber attackers with over-privileged accounts and permissive cyber architectures can access your critical assets. Manage access to protect your environment effectively. Manage identities and privilege levels across multiple platforms.

 

Principles for Secure Remote Access

The imperative of modernizing industrial cybersecurity has become increasingly pressing to avert costly disruptions and combat the ever-growing threat of cyberattacks. Industrial organizations now require secure remote access to formerly isolated operational assets, and while the advantages of such connectivity are immense, an expanded internet footprint has rendered Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Operational Technology (OT) assets vulnerable to cyber threats. A unified approach, founded on zero trust principles, is the key to meeting the demand for secure remote access. This modern solution facilitates the delivery of granular, just-in-time access to individual assets. The shift from a network-centric to an identity-centric remote access policy model allows for each identity to form its perimeter.

Enhance your cybersecurity stance by eradicating the binary access approach, regardless of the maturity level of the native device controls. Minimize the vulnerable attack surface area by providing adequate access for a specific duration to expedite the cyber-hardening process without any interruptions. The conventional remote access techniques, including traditional Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and an excessive dependence on IT-centric solutions, are no longer reliable. A scattered tactic not only puts at risk the benefits of increased productivity but also paves the way for cyber attackers and regulatory non-compliance. Xage Zero Trust Remote Access offers an effortless way to establish and implement in-depth, identity-based access policies between operational assets and remote users and applications.

Xage obviates the necessity of uprooting and replacing preexisting infrastructure or enduring disruptive alterations to secure all digital transactions between users and assets. Fueled by the exceedingly obtainable Xage Fabric, Xage Zero Trust Remote Access eases and safeguards connectivity both to and through your OT-IT DMZ. There is no longer a need to expose multiple firewall ports for access through common protocols, such as SSH, VNC, RDP, HTTPs, PROFINET, Modbus, or others, thus preserving your vulnerable assets without diminishing productivity. The Xage Zero Trust Remote Access solution strengthens the cyber resilience of virtually any cyber-physical system. Despite the level of native device capabilities, you may incorporate advanced security controls, such as Multi-Factor Authentication, point-in-time access approval workflows, and role-based access controls. Also, you will attain a centralized platform for managing and monitoring all remote activity, furnishing you unparalleled visibility for incident response and demonstrating regulatory compliance.

 

Revolutionize Your Industrial Operations

At the core of the digital revolution in the industry are data, data exchange, and automated processes based on data. Facilitating and regulating the exchange of data across various procedures, geographical locations, and members of the ecosystem—from the periphery to the cloud - empowers industrial organizations to revolutionize the way they employ their data. This presents an occasion for novel optimization, revenue generation, and creating value for customers.

The cutting-edge technology of Xage's Dynamic Data Security provides comprehensive security measures throughout the entire data platform, ranging from physical machines to edge analytics and shared cloud-based data lakes. The secure access and publication of data by multiple participants and their applications facilitate collaboration while mitigating the risks of cyber threats. Xage's Dynamic Data Security empowers enterprises to revolutionize their internal operations, partnerships, supplier management, and customer service. It can accommodate a wide range of applications such as transactive energy (TE/DER), custody transfer tracking, and advanced supply chain collaboration.

 

Safe and Secure Integration of Legacy

Prominent industries are adopting remote access and extensively automated data-centric operations. The integration of legacy, intelligent, and IoT systems must be executed with utmost safety across various domains: field, center, and cloud. A supple security methodology is imperative for prolonging the life of legacy assets, shielding them from cyber threats, and facilitating their complete involvement in holistic digital processes.

Xage lays the groundwork for digital metamorphosis, bolstering enhancements in productivity, efficacy, and security via the facilitation of cutting-edge automation, OT-IT-cloud integration, and dynamic data fortification. The Xage Fabric governs the admittance of contracted employees while empowering secure and data-driven decision-making, whether on-premise or in a multi-party setting.

 

Energy Generation and Storage Infrastructure

Energy operators frequently depend on information technology-based tools to fulfill the requirements for secure access to the dispersed infrastructure that forms the foundation of energy production and retention. Nonetheless, information technology-based tools cannot inherently safeguard industrial control systems, resulting in security lacunae. Such gaps, when compounded across interconnected operational technology, information technology, and cloud environments, create a favorable environment for cyber attackers and regulatory non-compliance. Xage Security was a part of the inaugural cohort of the National Renewable Energy Lab's Clean Energy Cybersecurity Accelerator program sanctioned by the United States Department of Energy. Xage Security aids clean energy operators to surmount challenges such as:

• Securing multi-party remote access
• Cyber-hardening distributed infrastructure
• Protecting OT/IT interconnectivity
• Meeting regulatory mandates

 

Manufacturing Enterprise Against Cyber Threats

The manufacturing sector is the primary focus of cybercriminals, and the expenses incurred to address a security breach can escalate into the millions. The ascent of telecommuting has fueled the demand for remote entry to confidential resources, thereby expanding the vulnerability and scope of the attack. In addition, the amplified intricacy of supply chains has introduced further hazards from external parties. Xage Security's advanced features, such as augmenting Zero Trust capability, can assist manufacturers in impeding attacks before they can result in exorbitant downtime.
