NECI and Dragos Announce Partnership to Deliver Advanced Threat Monitoring and Vulnerability Management Solutions

MANSFIELD, MA. – August 11, 2022 – NECI , a solutions and services provider for industrial automation, dataand digital transformationand Dragos, Inc., the global leader in cybersecurity for industrial control systems (ICS) and operational technology (OT) infrastructure, have announced a partnership to deliver advanced, sensor-based cybersecurity solutions to their customers in the pharmaceutical & Life Sciences, oil & gas, specialty chemicals, utilities & power generation, food & beverage, and process manufacturing industries.

The Dragos platform provides companies with the latest in preemptive tools and technology necessary to optimize vulnerability management and a collaborative, community-based approach to understanding and responding to the world’s increasingly sophisticated OT cyber threats.  The platform leverages continuous, passive collection and analysis along with exclusive threat intelligence from front-line industrial analysts and practitioners.

This partnership enables NECI to deliver a broader portfolio of best-in-class system agnostic cyber security solutions to their clients, within capital project delivery or as a component of long-term managed service subscriptions.  The integration will ensure uptime across the digital and physical plant by mitigating industrial cyber risk, through optimal threat detection, investigation, and response. 

“Why Dragos?  Many products can send alerts, but alerts alone require a deep understanding of OT and cybersecurity expertise,” says Erik Smith, Director of Lifecycle Solutions at NECI. “The Dragos solution provides meaningful threat context, a rich plant asset view, and playbook response capabilities for each threat type. We believe this collaboration positions NECI as an even stronger partner along our customers’ ICS cybersecurity journey, across all industries that we serve.”   

While organizations continue to navigate Industry 4.0 and the hyperconnected industrial landscape created by IIoT and digital transformation, they now have another option for layered defense and OT visualization previously not available to many industry segments.
