Xona and Radiflow Partner for Increased Cybersecurity

In an era where cyber threats are ever-growing, Xona, a leader in secure access for critical infrastructure, has formed a strategic alliance with Radiflow, a prominent player in operational technology (OT) cybersecurity. This partnership aims to enhance cybersecurity for critical infrastructure operators and managed security service providers (MSSPs).

With the increasing complexities of cyber threats, organizations managing critical infrastructure require robust frameworks that provide both visibility and control. The collaboration merges Radiflow's advanced OT risk analytics and Xona's zero-trust secure access control platform, creating a comprehensive defense mechanism for industrial environments.

The Synergy of Technology

Radiflow is known for its capabilities in passive threat detection and risk quantification. Paired with Xona's secure access solutions, they offer a unified approach that fortifies critical infrastructure against unauthorized access and potential cyber threats. Bill Moore, CEO and Founder of Xona, emphasized the importance of this partnership by stating, "The threat landscape for critical infrastructure continues to intensify... operators need both visibility and control to reduce risk without disrupting operations."

The strategic alliance focuses on several core areas:

1. Real-Time Access Governance - By utilizing Radiflow's CIARA platform, operators gain insights into cyber risks that inform access decisions within the Xona platform. This ensures that security measures are adaptive and informed.
2. Asset-Aware Access Policy Enforcement - Radiflow’s iSID enables asset and network discovery that helps Xona administrators implement specific, least-privilege access based on roles, time, and operational systems.
3. Rapid Incident Response - Leveraging alerts from Radiflow's anomaly detection capabilities, operators can utilize Xona’s Centralizer for immediate session lockdown or isolation when suspicious activity is detected.
4. Unified Deployment across Distributed Environments - Both companies provide lightweight solutions that are easy to deploy in environments where bandwidth is limited or sites are geographically dispersed.

New Opportunities for MSSPs

This partnership not only strengthens security but also opens avenues for Radiflow's and Xona’s MSSP ecosystem, allowing them to provide differentiated, risk-informed authorized connectivity solutions. Ilan Barda, CEO and Co-founder of Radiflow, remarked, "Xona’s platform is a natural complement to Radiflow’s risk-based OT security solutions... Together, we can help our partners deliver greater operational value to industrial customers."

Collaboration will encompass joint engagements with selected MSSPs and channel partners, facilitating cooperative go-to-market strategies and co-branded solution offerings tailored for industries such as energy, water, oil and gas, manufacturing, and transportation.
