Global technology giant, Honeywell, makes yet another stride in cybersecurity with the launch of Cyber Watch, an advanced enterprise solution designed to combat Operational Technology (OT) cyber threats. This product enhances an organization’s ability to detect, manage, and neutralize cyber threats.
Introducing Honeywell’s Cyber Watch: A Solution for OT Cyber Threats
CEO of Honeywell Connected Enterprise, Kevin Dehoff, emphasized that everyone, from plant managers to chief information security officers (CISOs), plays a vital role in defending against cyberattacks. Dehoff iterated that no company wants to be the victim of a high-profile ransomware attack and underscored the importance of proactive measures. Cyber Watch, backed by Honeywell’s expertise in critical infrastructure, enables quick threat detection and ensures robust responses to defend from attacks.
The Increasing Importance of Cybersecurity in Industrial Organizations
A report by Forrester Research disclosed that nearly 75% of organizations suffered at least one data breach in the past year. Furthermore, a staggering 140% increase in attacks on industrial organizations year-over-year highlights the urgency to tackle cyber threats head-on. Honeywell Chief Security Officer, Chase Carpenter, believes that getting to grips with vulnerabilities and gaining insights at both site and enterprise levels are key to making informed decisions against cyberattacks.
Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity+: Offering Insights into Vulnerabilities
As part of the Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity+ Suite, Cyber Watch is engineered to uncover security weaknesses within an organization’s OT environment. Aimed at providing specific insights into vulnerabilities, configuration issues, and compliance gaps at both site and enterprise levels, Forge Cybersecurity+ aims to improve overall resilience.
With the launch of Cyber Watch, Honeywell continues to reinforce its commitment to make the digital world safer. Amid the surging cyber threats, Honeywell’s cutting-edge tool promises a broad-spectrum solution to enhance an organization’s defense mechanism and maintain the seamless operations.
