Schneider Electric and BitSight, a leader in cyber risk detection and management, have announced the signing of a strategic partnership. The aim of this partnership is to develop a global risk identification and threat intelligence capability for operational technologies (OT).

' In recent years, the perpetrators of advanced and opportunistic cyber threats have demonstrated an increased willingness to target industrial and operational sites. Schneider Electric and BitSight see this partnership as an important step in strengthening their commitment to improving the security and resilience of their communities, in particular, by detecting IoT protocols exposed on the Internet' says the group.

Schneider Electric will merge its in-depth knowledge of IoT protocols and systems with BitSight's market-leading detection and exposure management capabilities.

The aim of this collaboration is to strengthen industrial security and optimize visibility into industrial infrastructures and industrial control systems (ICS) at risk of cyber-breach.
