Belden Inc. has announced a strategic partnership with Radiflow to deliver automated OT threat detection and rapid network enforcement for critical industrial operators. As industrial operational technology networks expand rapidly, security teams face growing cyber risks.
It means that having the knowledge of operational risk only is not enough for today’s industrial setting. Organizations need to take actions in real time based on threat intelligence. Although OT security solutions are quite effective in detecting risks, threat security enforcement still requires lots of manual processes. But this collaboration will close the gap between threat detection and automated access control. In other words, it will help industrial operators decrease the response time significantly.
The combination of Belden and Radiflow helps solve this problem through the creation of an integrated security cycle. Radiflow’s risk intelligence solution offers continuous asset discovery and detailed risk assessment. Belden provides a reliable network infrastructure and access control solution. In other words, a combination of these two solutions will convert asset risk data into immediate network restrictions automatically.
Advanced AI Integration and Automated Threat Control
Radiflow’s CIARA solution offers a precise mapping of industrial networks. At the same time, it uses AI-powered threat intelligence to detect critical risks instantly. iSID and CIARA solutions are seamlessly integrated with Belden NAC, previously known as macmon NAC. While iSID provides real-time event context, CIARA enriches Belden NAC with updated risk scores per asset. Thus, Belden NAC triggers automatic access-right adjustments the moment a risk posture changes. This capability delivers a continuous, contextual response that modern industrial networks demand.
“This partnership reflects exactly where Belden is heading: delivering security solutions that are comprehensive and immediately actionable in the field,” said Alexandre Peixoto, VP Security at Belden.
“With Radiflow’s CIARA & iSID platform providing continuous, data-driven risk intelligence and exposure detection, combined with Belden enforcing it at the network level, joint customers across manufacturing, energy and critical infrastructure get both the insight and the response from day one.”
Furthermore, this alliance strengthens network resilience across global industrial sites.
“Belden’s network infrastructure expertise is a natural complement to Radiflow’s risk intelligence capabilities,” said Ilan Barda, CEO, Radiflow. “Together, we give industrial operators what they’ve been missing: a direct, automated path from identifying a threat to enforcing the right response at machine speed, without putting operations at risk.”
Ultimately, this partnership underscores Belden’s commitment to complete industrial connectivity solutions. Currently, security solutions from Radiflow protect numerous global facilities. Therefore, this integration offers immediate scale to joint customers across the Americas and EMEA.
