Rockwell Automation, Inc., the world’s leading company in industrial automation and digital transformation, has announced the launch of SecureOT, a comprehensive solution suite designed to strengthen industrial cybersecurity. This offering helps manufacturers and critical infrastructure operators safeguard essential processes and establish resilient, secure operational environments.
As industrial systems become more interconnected, organizations face an accelerating wave of cyber threats targeting operational technology (OT). Many legacy systems were not originally built with cybersecurity in mind, and conventional IT tools often fall short in protecting these complex, aging infrastructures. SecureOT bridges this gap by delivering technologies and expertise purpose-built for the unique demands of modern industrial operations.

Combining the SecureOT Platform, specialized professional services, and managed security offerings, Rockwell Automation’s new suite provides unified, end-to-end protection for diverse, legacy, and highly regulated industrial environments.
“Cyber threats to industrial operations are evolving faster than ever, and legacy defenses simply can’t keep up,” said Matthew Fordenwalt, Senior Vice President, Lifecycle Services, Rockwell Automation. “SecureOT is more than a brand – it’s a strategic shift in how industrial organizations approach cybersecurity. We’re combining deep industrial expertise with OT-specific technology and services that help customers stay ahead of threats and keep operations running safely.”
Built for industrial complexity
SecureOT is designed for the specific challenges of OT environments, providing comprehensive protection across all levels of cybersecurity maturity. SecureOT Platform delivers real-time asset visibility, risk prioritization and vulnerability management across diverse vendor ecosystems.
Through its professional services, SecureOT offers strategic advisory, assessments and implementation support to help organizations strengthen their security posture. Its managed security services provide continuous 24/7 monitoring and incident response from Rockwell’s dedicated OT Security Operations Center (SOC) and Network Operations Center (NOC).
SecureOT aligns with globally recognized frameworks, including NIST CSF, NIS2 and IEC 62443, and takes a vendor-neutral approach to securing industrial control systems and technology stacks.
“Industrial organizations need cybersecurity strategies built for the realities of OT,” said Hollie Hennessy, OT/IoT cybersecurity lead analyst at Omdia. “Rockwell Automation’s SecureOT addresses that need with a layered approach that integrates asset visibility, vulnerability management and managed detection services in one framework. It’s a significant step forward for industrial cybersecurity maturity.”
Real results
SecureOT is helping industrial leaders transform their cybersecurity posture:
- A leading oil & gas producer achieved full OT asset visibility and remediated critical risks across remote operations in just six months.
- A large beverage manufacturer migrated their aging industrial network and compute installed base to a fully managed and supported infrastructure across more than 150 sites globally.
- An energy company doubled its NIST CSF maturity scores while delivering measurable ROI to executive leadership.
- A power utility gained secure, real-time visibility into remote substations – achieving NERC CIP compliance and reducing costs through agentless monitoring.
With SecureOT, industrial organizations can confidently mitigate risk, help maintain uptime and run safer operations, no matter where they are in their cybersecurity journey.
