Rhebo and RAD provide OT Monitoring and Cybersecurity for Utilities and Industry 4.0

  • RAD integrates Rhebo’s solution on its high-performance SecFlow Industrial IoT Gateway 
  • Rhebo’s Operational Technology monitoring with anomaly detection adds cybersecurity to RAD gateway’s comprehensive functions 
  • System integration provides lean and cost-efficient solution via edge computing

Leipzig, Germany / Tel Aviv, Israel, June 8, 2021 – Rhebo, a Landis+Gyr company and a  leading European provider of OT monitoring solutions, today announced its collaboration with RAD, a global industry pioneer in the areas of industrial IoT (IIoT) and edge computing. The technology partnership integrates Rhebo's Operational Technology (OT) monitoring and anomaly detection solution within RAD's SecFlow IIoT gateways. The combined offering allows utility and critical infrastructure operators to gain complete operational visibility and ensure cybersecurity of their remote assets. Rhebo adds powerful substation-level monitoring with anomaly detection to the SecFlow’s built-in stateful firewall. As a result, novel attack patterns, malware activity and technical errors can be detected and addressed before disruptions occur. Secflow’s edge computing capabilities enable the hosting of Rhebo’s cybersecurity solution as a software container, avoiding the need to deploy additional appliances in the field.

»RAD’s Industrial IoT and utility customers are looking to protect their OT networks against cybersecurity threats with an integrated and powerful anomaly detection and protection solution,« said Ilan Tevet, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at RAD. »Rhebo is the perfect technological partner with a market leading OT cybersecurity solution and a broad range of customer references in the energy, power and water utilities, ICS, and Industry 4.0 markets. Together with Rhebo, we increase the value we bring to existing and potential customers.«

The RAD SecFlow portfolio includes ruggedized industrial IoT gateways with edge computing that provide secure connectivity over wireless or fiber optic networks to remote terminal units, smart meter aggregation devices and IoT base stations in distributed utility systems. In addition to a built-in integrated router, firewall and LTE modem, the SecFlow features advanced functionalities such as a PLC, LoRaWAN gateway, protocol converter and video surveillance DVR (digital video recorder).

Rhebo’s Industrial Protector adds continuous OT monitoring with anomaly detection to SecFlow’s market leading features and as such extends intrusion detection capabilities to the ICS/OT environment. This enables comprehensive asset inventory management for OT networks as well as identification of zero-day vulnerabilities and communication processes that might lead to malfunctions. 

»Operators of complex and critical infrastructure want to install as little additional hardware as possible in their networks,« added Rhebo CEO Klaus Mochalski. »The integration of Rhebo Industrial Protector within RAD’s SecFlow follows this requirement and optimally combines network with control functions as well as end-to-end OT cybersecurity in one single device.«
