October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month. According to a study by the University of Maryland, there is a hacking attempt every 39 seconds. And, the average cost of a data breach in 2020 will exceed $150 million.

We live in a connected world. These connections allow for a pace of commerce and communication previously unimaginable.

As everything becomes more connected, threats to the cyber security of commercial facilities and industrial equipment grow every day.

Traditionally, when working with operationally sensitive equipment such as HMI/SCADA Systems, the established practice has been to “Air-Gap” your equipment and prevent any access from the outside world. Globalization, regulations, & advanced data analysis techniques have made this practice obsolete and costly to your bottom line. Plants that choose to be “Air-Gapped” lose out on new innovations that allow for increased oversight and efficiency optimization to plant systems.

Now, you can connect to your facility and equipment from anywhere without compromising the security of your operations.

The Preferred Cloud Remote Monitoring Platform offers three levels of encrypted, secure, and continuous analytics on your equipment, while recommending cost saving and preventative maintenance options to reduce downtime and emergency service.
