Over the past decade, operational technology (OT) environments have undergone a rapid digital transformation, becoming more connected than ever before. The adoption of machine learning, AI, and connected devices has unlocked new levels of insight, efficiency, and cost savings enabling real-time reporting, optimized productivity, and reduced downtime and labor costs. 

However, greater connectivity also brings greater risk. OT assets were not inherently designed with security in mind, and IT and OT teams often speak different languages, struggling to align security strategies. In-house teams may also hesitate to halt critical production for security updates, unaware of the potential consequences of inaction.

A Proactive Approach to OT Cybersecurity

Cyberattacks targeting OT environments are no longer rare—they are a growing and persistent threat. Attackers are leveraging AI-driven threats, ransomware, and zero-day vulnerabilities to compromise industrial systems. A single breach could lead to devastating downtime, safety risks, or regulatory violations.

To stay ahead of threats, organizations need a comprehensive, proactive security strategy—one that covers the entire attack continuum: before, during, and after a cyber event. By identifying vulnerabilities, implementing strong protections, and ensuring rapid response and recovery, manufacturers can limit the impact of cyber breaches and maintain business continuity.

How Rockwell Automation Can Help

Rockwell Automation takes the uncertainty out of OT cybersecurity by helping industrial organizations develop and implement a tailored security strategy aligned with their business objectives and risk priorities. With over 100 years of industrial automation expertise, deep OT security knowledge, and a comprehensive cybersecurity solution suite, we help manufacturers stay ahead of threats, mitigate risk, and build long-term cyber resilience.

Aligned with the six core pillars of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, our end-to-end OT security offerings empower organizations to:

Identify

vulnerabilities and assess risks

Protect

critical assets and data

Detect and respond

to evolving cyber threats

Recover

quickly to minimize downtime

Identify and Protect

Building the foundation for a strong cybersecurity program

Effective OT cybersecurity begins with visibility and proactive protection. Many industrial environments operate with aging infrastructure, unknown vulnerabilities, and limited security controls, making them prime targets for cyberattacks. It’s nearly impossible to implement a robust security strategy without first understanding the risks, compliance requirements, and security gaps your organization faces.

Rockwell Automation helps industrial organizations accurately assess risks, prioritize remediation efforts, and achieve regulatory compliance through:

Security Assessments – Security assessments lay the foundation for an OT security strategy. Assessments of all kinds – network architecture, penetration testing, risk assessments, and asset inventory give you the critical insight and data you need to establish a starting point for your strategy.

Verve Platform – Verve best-in-class Risk & Vulnerability management platform goes a step beyond a security assessment and provides a real-time, comprehensive look at your network and the assets connected to it from a single pane of glass view giving you deep asset visibility to help prioritize risks and protect critical assets.

Compliance & Regulatory Support -  Non-compliance can lead to fines, operational restrictions, and increased cyber risk. Rockwell Automation helps organizations align with key industry standards and regulations such as NIST 800-53 & NIST 800-82, NERC CIP, IEC 62443, and NIS2, helping them remain compliant while enhancing overall cybersecurity posture.

Detect and Respond

Real-time threat visibility and rapid incident response

Cyber threats don’t wait. Industrial organizations need real-time visibility and rapid response capabilities to detect and contain threats before they disrupt critical operations. 

Security Monitoring and Response - Security Monitoring and Response, backed by our OT Security Operations Center (SOC) helps manufacturers address security risks, resource gaps, and operational inefficiencies by providing:

Continuous, real-time monitoring to detect anomalies and suspicious activity
Advanced threat detection and analytics to help prioritize alerts, transforming raw data into actionable insights
Actionable threat intelligence to help mitigate risk and enhance security posture

Incident Response & Preparedness - Sometimes despite best efforts, cybercriminals still slip through. An incident response plan can help you:

Prepare internal teams through planning, assessments, and tabletop exercises
Respond rapidly with predefined playbooks and containment strategies
Recover effectively to minimize downtime and confusion

Partner Technologies - Our vendor-agnostic approach integrates seamlessly with your existing infrastructure and industry-leading partner technology for enhanced threat detection.

Recover

Restore critical operations as quickly as possible

A cyberattack can bring operations to a halt leading to lost productivity, financial losses, and regulatory repercussions. A robust recovery strategy can help industrial organizations maintain business continuity through a rapid and efficient return to normal operations, while safeguarding against similar incidents occurring in the future.

Recovery Planning & Support - Our team knows what it takes to get industrial organizations back up and running. We can work with internal teams to create a comprehensive recover plan for rapid return to operations after a security incident. 

Backup & Restoration Services - Comprehensive and tested backups are critical to restoring operations after a cyber incident. Our team can help create a successful strategy that includes configurations, firmware, operator interface files, and more, so if you need to restore a backup after an incident, you’re not starting from square one. 

Managed Services

End-to-end management for your industrial infrastructure

Managing industrial networks, compute environments, and security infrastructure is a complex and resource-intensive task. Many industrial organizations struggle with limited IT/OT security personnel, legacy systems, and increasing cybersecurity compliance demands. Without continuous monitoring and proactive management, organizations are opening themselves up to a wide range of vulnerabilities and security risks. Rockwell Automation’s Managed Services offerings provide 24/7 management of industrial infrastructure, enabling optimal performance, security, and compliance while freeing up internal teams to focus on core business priorities.

Network and Compute Managed Services - Proactive monitoring, maintenance, and security of industrial networks to help prevent disruptions and increase efficiency

Data Center Management - Continuous monitoring and patching for Industrial Data Centers (IDCs), maintaining high availability and resilience

Firewall Management - 24/7 remote monitoring, firmware updates, and security enforcements to protect against unauthorized access and help mitigate cyber risk

Rockwell Automation Managed Services help manufacturers reduce downtime, strengthen cybersecurity posture, and lower total cost of ownership (TCO) through continuous, proactive monitoring, maintenance, and security enforcement. Our services help industrial organizations get ahead of imminent threats before they occur, preventing critical downtime while helping improve compliance, risk management, and operational efficiency without overburdening internal teams.

Building Resilient Operations: Real-World Cybersecurity Wins

Case Study: Global Personal Care Leader

Church & Dwight was looking to prioritize strengthening OT cybersecurity and enhancing visibility across IT and OT networks while protecting operations and minimizing disruptions. Aware of the risks of inaction, their CISO, David Ortiz, turned to Rockwell Automation as a trusted partner to help modernize OT security without impacting production.
