MDR Providers for Manufacturing
MDR providers with OT/ICS monitoring experience and the ability to protect both IT and operational technology environments.
Manufacturing-Specific Considerations
- •OT/ICS visibility is critical — many MDR providers only cover IT environments
- •Network monitoring is essential for detecting lateral movement into OT networks
- •Response actions must account for operational safety — you cannot isolate a production line controller
- •Air-gapped or partially connected networks require specialized deployment models
