Mitsubishi Programmable Logic Controllers now integrated with Nozomi's security sensors for enhanced system protection.
In a pioneering move, Nozomi Networks has revealed the launch of Arc Embedded, an industrial security sensor that delivers unmatched visibility at the process level of automation equipment and field assets. This innovative solution is now integrated into Mitsubishi Electric's programmable logic controllers (PLCs), transforming the way critical infrastructure is managed and protected.
Arc Embedded is designed to bolster the safety, security, and reliability of automation processes, offering high levels of visibility and protection for devices connected to the PLC 'backplane'. This enables a comprehensive understanding of module health, communication patterns, configuration changes, and firmware integrity.
The embedded sensor provides AI-powered protection, enabling faster responses to security incidents, robust detection of known and unknown vulnerabilities, and continuous monitoring. This means that customers across various industries can deploy Arc Embedded in Mitsubishi Electric PLCs with confidence, benefiting from greater operational resilience, reduced cyberrisk, and improved compliance.
The PLC market is projected to reach USD 22 billion by 2030 due to increased adoption of automation. With the integration of Arc Embedded, Mitsubishi Electric's iQ-R series PLCs now offer real-time visibility and security from network endpoints to the manufacturing floor, extending security to and through industrial control systems, down to the field assets they manage.
Andrea Carcano, Co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Nozomi Networks, stated that Arc Embedded can revolutionize how Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) manage and protect critical infrastructure. The sensor allows teams to analyze and deter process-level threats and malicious user activity without impacting resources or disrupting networks.
Arc Embedded is now available via a subscription-based model from Mitsubishi Electric, Nozomi Networks, and the network of Nozomi Networks channel partners. However, as of the current search results, no relevant information could be found about customers in various industries using Arc Embedded in Mitsubishi Electric iQ-R series PLCs with a subscription model or the partners offering this solution.
In conclusion, Nozomi Networks' Arc Embedded signifies a significant advancement in industrial cybersecurity, offering unparalleled protection for automation processes. Its integration with Mitsubishi Electric's iQ-R series PLCs promises to reshape the industry landscape, offering organizations greater operational resilience, reduced cyberrisk, and improved compliance.
