Deutsche Telekom has entered a strategic partnership with Radiflow to collaborate in the field of securing industrial networks. Radiflow was chosen by T-Systems, a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, after a thorough evaluation of ICS/SCADA security vendors.
Deutsche Telekom's move to expand into securing the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) stemmed from the increasing importance of securing industrial systems and critical infrastructures, as they become more and more interconnected.
Telekom Security, a new business unit within Deutsche Telekom, now offers Industrial Network Protect Pro (INPP), a distributed firewall for industrial networks based on Radiflow's portfolio. With INPP, companies can subdivide their networks into protected zones, and subsequently monitor and control data flows between these zones. Radiflow's secure gateways are especially optimized for remote sites, in which they serve both as distributed attack detection sensors for its central Industrial IDS (iSID), and as access protection devices.
Ilan Barda, CEO of Radiflow
We're honored to partner with Telekom Security and glad that we were able to convince Deutsche Telekom of the value of our innovative, best-in-class technology in protecting industrial networks.
Dirk Backofen, Head of Telekom Security
Radiflow enables Telekom Security's customers to expand their use of digitized infrastructure in their industrial applications while maintaining their operational resilience. With Radiflow's expertise, the strategic partnership enables Telekom Security to offer a mature, field-proven solution.
