Shieldworkz + Fortinet : A Joint Solution for OT/ICS Security
Unified OT/ICS Threat Detection and Response, Powered by Shieldworkz and Fortinet
Your plant floor was built for reliability, not for the cyberthreats it faces today. As PLCs, SCADA systems, and industrial IoT devices connect deeper into your enterprise network, every new integration widens your attack surface and IT-centric security tools simply weren't built to protect it.
Shieldworkz and Fortinet have partnered to close that gap. Together, we deliver a single, industrial-grade security solution that unifies OT and IT visibility, automates threat response, and keeps your operations running without a moment of disruption.

One Platform. Complete Visibility. Zero Disruption.
The Shieldworkz OT/ICS NDR platform passively discovers and fingerprints every industrial asset on your network, PLCs, RTUs, IEDs, HMIs, and IoT sensors, without injecting scan traffic that could destabilize sensitive processes. Machine-learning models continuously analyze industrial protocols like Modbus, DNP3, EtherNet/IP, and PROFINET to catch unauthorized commands, configuration tampering, and anomalous behavior the moment it happens.
That intelligence flows directly into the Fortinet Security Fabric. FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls automatically enforce segmentation policies and quarantine compromised devices, while FortiSIEM correlates IT and OT telemetry into a single, unified view for your security operations team. The result: threats are contained before they ever reach your enterprise network.

Why Industrial Operators Are Making the Switch
Energy, manufacturing, utilities, oil and gas, and smart infrastructure operators are under pressure from every direction: blind spots in legacy OT networks, mounting compliance demands under IEC 62443, NIS2, and NIST SP 800-82, a shortage of OT-trained security talent, and adversaries who know exactly how to exploit all three. Meanwhile, insider threats and lateral movement across poorly segmented networks continue to go undetected until it's too late.
You need protection built for the plant floor, not repurposed from the data center.
Built for What Matters Most
Unified IT/OT visibility across every asset and network segment, from the industrial DMZ to the process control layer.
Automated detection and response that isolates compromised zones in real time, no manual intervention required.
Simplified compliance with IEC 62443, NIS2, NIST CSF, and OTCC frameworks, backed by tamper-resistant, audit-ready reporting.
Non-disruptive passive monitoring that protects live industrial operations without ever touching production uptime.
Faster mean-time-to-respond through Fabric-integrated orchestration that closes the gap between detection and containment.
True zero trust and defense-in-depth, engineered specifically for industrial environments, not adapted from IT.
Real Protection, Proven in the Field
Contain anomalies before they spread. When Shieldworkz detects an unauthorized PLC command or unexpected inter-zone communication, FortiGate NGFWs trigger automatic segmentation rules, isolating the affected zone before a threat reaches adjacent systems or the wider enterprise.
Turn compliance into a byproduct, not a burden. Continuous asset and configuration monitoring, mapped to IEC 62443 security levels and the Purdue Reference Architecture, gives you structured, audit-ready evidence, cutting manual compliance work dramatically.
Outpace sophisticated adversaries. Backed by OT-focused threat intelligence gathered from over 70 cities worldwide, the platform validates every communication flow against expected behavior, flagging policy violations before they become incidents.
