CISOs now have the ability to see risks and
vulnerabilities at both the site level and the enterprise level to
improve the security of their Operational Technology (OT)
systems.
ATLANTA, Oct. 11,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Honeywell (Nasdaq: HON)
launched Cyber Watch, a breakthrough enterprise solution designed
to help organizations better identify, mitigate and manage the
latest Operational Technology (OT) cyber threats.
"Everyone from the plant manager to the CISO is a line of
defense against the next cyberattack. No company wants to be a
frontpage headline as the next victim of a ransomware attack. We
know hackers are lurking – waiting for months or even years – to
strike," said Kevin Dehoff,
president and CEO, Honeywell Connected Enterprise. "Our
industry-leading technology, supported by Honeywell's deep domain
experience in critical infrastructure, is designed to empower
leaders and workers to stop an attack before it happens, from
detection to remediation to response."
According to findings from Forrester Research in 2023, almost
three-quarters of organizations reported one or more data breaches
in the past 12 months.i Additionally, there has been a
140% year-over-year increase in attacks on industrial
organizations.ii
"Understanding vulnerabilities and gaining insight at both the
site and enterprise level will help enable faster and more informed
decisions to better defend against cyberattacks, reduce potential
downtime and create a safer environment for our employees," said
Chase Carpenter, Honeywell chief
security officer.
Cyber Watch, part of the Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity+ Suite,
is being demonstrated at this week's Honeywell Connect, the premier
software symposium for industrial companies. Attendees can also
experience an enhanced version of Honeywell's powerful Cyber
Insights technology.
Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity+ Suite is designed to uncover
security weaknesses within an organization's OT environment by
providing specific insights into vulnerabilities, configuration
issues and compliance gaps at both the site and enterprise level,
with the objective of improving overall resiliency.
