Tenable and Siemens Energy Expand Collaboration on OT Cybersecurity
October 26 2023 - 9:00AM
Tenable®, Inc. the Exposure Management company, today announced
that it has expanded its partnership with Siemens Energy to further
secure operational technology (OT) environments in the energy
sector. Building on years of collaboration, Siemens Energy will
integrate Tenable OT Security into their Omnivise T3000 control
system as a network intrusion detection system (NIDS), in addition
to already leveraging Tenable OT Security for asset discovery and
vulnerability management. Siemens Energy's decision to bring
Tenable into this flagship offering joins existing collaboration on
their recently rebranded cybersecurity service offering, Omnivise
OT Security, powered by Tenable.
Tenable and Siemens Energy’s collaborations bring together
cybersecurity and OT knowledge bases to address a key challenge for
the energy sector: securing an ever-changing asset base that
bridges the digital and physical world. Energy sector worksites
typically involve unique configurations of equipment from many
manufacturers and increasingly involve a fluctuating set of
networked digital devices. If companies fail to keep up with the
onslaught of new devices and new threats, they can end up with
cybersecurity blind spots and increased risk in the physical and
digital systems that produce and move electricity and fuel.
“Siemens Energy brings deep OT knowledge to cybersecurity
challenges and has become a leader in securing energy work sites,”
said Marty Edwards, deputy CTO for OT/IoT, Tenable. “We are
particularly honored that Siemens Energy has chosen Tenable OT
Security as the right solution set not only for their expanded
service offerings, but to integrate into their industry-leading
control systems.”
“Tenable OT Security provides much-needed visibility into the
cyber health of OT systems that sit at the heart of energy
businesses,” said Leo Simonovich, Vice President and Global Head of
Industrial Cyber and Digital Security at Siemens Energy.
“These capabilities strengthen our Omnivise T3000 cybersecurity
and enable easier compliance with regulations that increasingly
emphasize monitoring and detection. Tenable has a well-earned
reputation for vulnerability discovery and we believe there is more
value for our customers that can be leveraged from this powerful
security package,” said Matthias Fels, Global Head of Product and
Portfolio Management for Controls at Siemens Energy.
The integration of Tenable OT Security is expected to come in
the next Omnivise T3000 service pack update for Release 9.2.
Meanwhile, Siemens Energy technicians are already helping Omnivise
OT Security customers understand Tenable's full capabilities and
how to apply those capabilities to enhance cybersecurity across
their worksites. Siemens Energy experts will work with customers to
properly deploy Tenable’s powerful cybersecurity tools across their
asset base, enabling network intrusion detection, asset discovery,
and network-based anomaly detection, in addition to vulnerability
management. Periodic contextualized reports from Siemens Energy
help customers quantitatively analyze risks and continuously mature
their cybersecurity capabilities.
