Protect my OT networks from ransomware
In the last five years, over 90% of cyber attacks resulting in shut-downs of industrial operations were ransomware. Today’s ransomware attack tools & techniques trail nation-state tools & techniques by less than five years.
Waterfall protects against OT ransomware attacks by making the network entry points that such attacks utilize nonexistent.
With Waterfall you get
The strictest international standards and regulations require or recommend Unidirectional Gateway protection for industrial networks. Unidirectional Gateways are stronger than firewalls so agree with all industrial security standards, regulations and best practices.
Unidirectional Gateways provide protection for OT networks so strong that unidirectionally-protected enterprises do not need to shut down OT systems in an "abundance of caution" when ransomware compromises IT networks.
Unidirectional network designs highlight OT dependencies on IT networks and help to eliminate those dependencies. With IT dependencies out of the way, OT systems can keep working normally when ransomware impairs IT networks and servers.
No OT targeting

How it works
Connect
An industrial network safely to an IT network
Protect
The industrial network with hardware enforced technology
Replicate
Real-time operational servers to the enterprise IT network
Waterfall’s Industry-Specific Solutions
Cybersecurity for power plants
Power utilities rest easy knowing that remote cyber attacks cannot reach through their Unidirectional Gateways to mis-operate control systems responsible for worker and public safety, for preventing damage to long-lead time turbines and other equipment, or for assuring continuous and efficient production of electric power.
Cybersecurity for oil & gas
Owners and operators of offshore platforms, pipelines and refineries rest easy knowing that no cyber-sabotage attack is able to penetrate Unidirectional Gateway hardware to put at risk worker or public safety, the environment, long-lead-time equipment and reliable production and operation, without unplanned shutdowns.
Cybersecurity for rails
Rail and metro system operators rest assured when Unidirectional Gateways are deployed to protect vital networks including switching systems, electric power systems and operations control centers from cyber attacks originating on IT or Internet networks, no matter how sophisticated such attacks are now, or might become in the future.
Cybersecurity for facilities
Data centers, airports, government and military campuses and other very important facilities operators sleep well knowing that Unidirectional Gateways are unbreachable in the face of attacks traversing Internet-exposed IT networks to put public safety, important equipment and continuous & connect operations at risk
Cybersecurity for water Treatment
With Unidirectional Gateways deployed, municipal leaders can be confident of continuous and correct operation of their automation systems and water treatment infrastructure , even in the face of the most sophisticated of attacks coming across the Internet, both today and long into the future.
Cybersecurity for manufacturing
Nobody wants to be in next week's headlines explaining how another dozen plants were taken down by ransomware or other cyber attacks. Neither ransomware nor the most sophisticated of the Internet's attacks can breach Waterfall's Unidirectional Gateways to pose any threat to product quality or to continuous, and correct manufacturing operations,
