Rockwell Automation, Inc., the world's largest industrial automation and digital transformation company, is taking full action to block cyber threats with real-time response.

Rockwell Automation has launched a new Security Monitoring & Response service to help strengthen the security of operational technology (OT) environments.

The service provides 24/7 real-time threat detection and response capabilities, helping manufacturers effectively prepare for increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.

Industrial cybersecurity incidents and system vulnerability issues are acting as important security risks in the OT environment. In fact, a recently published smart manufacturing status report identified cyber threats and lack of security personnel as one of the five major obstacles threatening the manufacturing industry.

To address these challenges, Rockwell Automation operates an OT Security Operations Center (SOC) and a team of experienced security analysts to provide real-time threat detection and response services. This helps industrial organizations strengthen their security posture, close technology gaps, and improve operational efficiency.

This new service provides functions such as △24-hour real-time threat detection and response, △rapid incident response and problem resolution, △reporting system and scalability.

The new security monitoring service is designed to automate threat detection to reduce operational disruptions and financial losses, and maximize efficiency. In particular, it is expected to enable data-driven decision-making by providing real-time security visibility, and to enable even companies with a shortage of security professionals to maintain an effective response system.

“With cyber threats becoming increasingly sophisticated, manufacturers must be able to detect and respond quickly,” said Nick Creath, senior product manager, Cybersecurity Services at Rockwell Automation. “Our security monitoring and response services provide customers with a security solution optimized for OT environments, helping them strengthen their security posture and close the skills gap.”

Meanwhile, Rockwell Automation will be participating in the world's largest cybersecurity conference, 'RSA Conference 2025', held in San Francisco, USA from April 28 to May 1, to introduce its OT security solutions and the latest technologies.
