"SecurityMatters' SilentDefense(TM) operates as an automatic and passive monitoring solution that analyzes the behaviors of network users and devices, including machinery status, remote or on-site employee access, and potential hacker activities within the network," said Danielle VanZandt, Industry Analyst for Security. "It leverages patented machine learning capabilities to monitor the IT/OT ecosystems from three central angles--network, protocols, and semantics. It combines this machine learning with a vast industrial threat library and a comprehensive protection program to deliver timely and actionable updates regarding new threats."

SilentDefense(TM) empowers operators to customize and filter the data displayed on its dashboard and allows users to investigate historical data. This information is particularly helpful for evaluating unusual IT/OT network activity and determining whether a piece of equipment needs repairs due to maintenance failure or machine hacking and controlling.

Notably, SilentDefense(TM) is self-configuring and needs minimal human interaction, which reduces labor costs on monitoring efforts. It has built-in integration capabilities with all major security information and event management (SIEM) solutions, a vast range of IT asset management integrations, and almost all firewall applications available on the market.

"With established offices in Europe and the US, SecurityMatters has developed its business worldwide in industries such as electric utilities, water, oil and gas, chemical, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and critical infrastructure," noted VanZandt. "Its year-over-year customer acquisition growth rate of 100% is a testament to its customer centricity and desire to provide clients with an overall superior experience."
