Radiflow, a provider of industrial cybersecurity solutions for industrial automation networks, announced the availability of its iSID Industrial Cybersecurity App on Cortex by Palo Alto Networks – the industry’s only open and integrated AI-based continuous security platform. Building on Cortex allows partners to use normalised and stitched together data from customers’ entire enterprises to build cloud-based apps that constantly deliver innovative cybersecurity capabilities to joint customers.  

The Radiflow iSID industrial cybersecurity app on Cortex provides critical infrastructure and industrial cybersecurity through non-intrusive monitoring of distributed production networks. The app utilises data from Cortex Data Lake for added context to create a unique risk score for each device based on proprietary attacker models and defined defence strategies. Security analysts and risk managers can prioritise their actions based on the specific context of the OT network and the potential impact on the business if an attack occurred.

AI innovations for accurate security outcomes
