Orro has launched its Operational Technology (OT) focused division called Orro Critical Infrastructure to be led by Christopher Mahar as managing director.
Through this increased capability, Orro can now offer specialist services in the planning, building, and running of highly available and secure industrial OT environments, covering network, cyber, distributed cloud and private LTE wireless infrastructure.
According to Orro, the offering is an Australia and New Zealand first that assesses and stabilises existing critical infrastructure assets, working with industry regulators and clients to recommend and transform key elements as well as enhanced safety outcomes. These services will then be securely connected and operated by Orro\’s dedicated OT SOC/NOC practice.
“This new service comes as we continue to expand our full-stack production ready offering, driving our vision of delivering Securely Connected Everything for our customers,” Orro CEO Daniel Greengarten said.
“We’re looking forward to collaborating with Australia’s operational technology community, and to assisting our customers to plan, build, run, and secure their critical infrastructure.”
“We have invested in our operational capabilities, establishing a specialist OT team to help us transition and provide complete confidence to our customers which will enable them to focus on the business of their business.”
Orro will launch a new Security Operation Centre (SOC) specifically for OT customers and environments, providing real-time protection against potential attacks.
“Orro Critical Infrastructure is focused on navigating the nuances of OT production environments, in which the IT elements of OT can be effectively managed using pragmatic best practices from both disciplines, while prioritising production, safety, and security outcomes,” Mahar said.
“Orro’s experience working in close partnership with customers that manage extensive OT environments highlighted the need for increased critical infrastructure capabilities. Existing Orro customers across a range of sectors including energy, transport and logistics, healthcare, retail, as well as a variety of state government entities, can all benefit from these expanded capabilities.”
Last month, Orro launched a managed observability service underpinned by Cisco’s ThousandEyes and its One Touch Control digital delivery platform.
The managed observability service integrates telemetry data from across an organisation’s technology stack, whether cloud, network, applications, or IoT environments into a centralised dashboards that provide real-time visualisations.
