Collaboration provides next-generation security platform with proven industrial process control expertise
Honeywell Process Solutions (HPS) and Palo Alto Networks are collaborating to boost the cyber security capabilities of control systems used by industrial facilities and critical infrastructure.
Honeywell’s Industrial Cyber Security business is now offering the Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Security Platform to industrial customers. The collaboration enables customers to better prevent cyberattacks against their Process Control Networks (PCN) and Operational Technology (OT) environments in order to protect their assets and maximize production uptime and safety.
It combines Palo Alto Networks’ advanced and natively integrated security platform with Honeywell’s unique process control domain expertise to provide a cyber security solution tailored for industrial customers.
“The collaboration with Palo Alto Networks expands our ability to provide proactive intrusion prevention resulting in more robust protection for our customers,” said Jeff Zindel, Vice President and General Manager, Cyber Security, Honeywell Process Solutions
“Connecting vital infrastructure to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) comes with tremendous benefit, but also associated cyber risks. Our work with Honeywell addresses the cyber risk with next-generation security designed to meet the needs of industrial customers and provide them with threat detection and prevention capabilities previously unseen in the industry,” said Chad Kinzelberg, SVP of Business and Corporate Development, Palo Alto Networks.
