Claroty achieves AWS competency for OT security

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) protection company Claroty has achieved the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Manufacturing and Industrial Competency for Operational Technology (OT) Security.

The designation reinforces Claroty’s commitment to securing mission-critical infrastructure via Claroty xDome, its modular, SaaS-powered industrial cybersecurity platform.

"With the surge in connectivity and a growing reliance on digital systems, manufacturing industries from automotive to pharmaceuticals have become lucrative targets for cyber attackers. Organisations are looking to safeguard their critical assets with the goal of ensuring the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of information and processes," Claroty said.

Claroty xDome on AWS integrates existing IT tools and workflows with customer's CPS, offering visibility into all CPS in the OT environment, and extending security governance from IT to OT.

“Achieving AWS Manufacturing and Industrial Competency status is a testament to Claroty’s commitment to providing customers with highly scalable, specialised solutions that meet the complex needs of the digital transformation occurring across manufacturing sites,” said Grant Geyer, chief strategy officer at Claroty.

“By combining the power of AWS with xDome, organisations can unify their security governance-extending IT into OT – and drive all use cases towards cyber and operational resilience.”

"Over the past few years, we've seen firsthand how critical OT and CPS security has become to our customers' digital transformation journeys," said Karen Langona, global partner sales director, automotive and manufacturing at AWS.

"Whether migrating SCADA workloads or implementing Smart Manufacturing solutions like AI-powered diagnostics and predictive maintenance, security is foundational.

"Our strategic collaboration with Claroty stems from their proven leadership in securing industrial environments, and their achievement of the AWS Manufacturing and Industrial Competency further validates their ability to deliver transformative value to customers."

The AWS Competency program validates AWS Partners who leverage AWS technology to solve complex industry and use-case specific challenges.
