Context & Need
The client provides energy efficiency services to industries, managing 25 industrial sites in Italy and operating on a large territorial area. With the increasing reliance on digital technologies and internet connectivity, the client’s network became vulnerable to cyber threats. The need arose for an intelligent system to protect the network from cyber attacks and ensure the continuity of operations.
The Solution
Innovatech implemented a unified threat management system through a central console that monitors and controls all security appliances. The solution includes the installation of two clustered firewalls at each site, creating multiple security domains and separating the industrial part (SCADA – Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) from the office network. This approach enhances cybersecurity defense by spreading multiple layers of protection across computers, networks, programs, and data.
