Help AG, the cybersecurity arm of e&enterprise (formerly known as Etisalat Digital) and the region’s trusted security advisor, has partnered with Waterfall Security Solutions, the global leader in industrial cybersecurity

With this partnership, Help AG will assist industrial clients in the UAE to securely connect their IT and OT environments for safe and optimal performance. Help AG’s industrial clients will benefit from Waterfall’s Unidirectional Security Gateways and related products to tackle the security challenges involved in IT-OT convergence, as well as Waterfall’s long experience in helping organisations to integrate IT and OT environments safely and securely. 

Commenting on the partnership, Stephan Berner, CEO, Help AG, said, “One of our key focus areas is helping our clients in the industrial sector to safely integrate their IT and OT systems. For this reason, we are very pleased to partner with Waterfall Security Solutions, a leader in the field of ICS/SCADA cybersecurity. Waterfall’s Unidirectional Gateway technology meets the security needs of modern industrial organisations, and our UAE clients now have full access to their patented solutions.”

Waterfall provides a family of products based on their flagship Unidirectional Security Gateways. The gateways provide industrial control systems with absolute protection from targeted and other attacks from external networks, as well as secure enterprise-wide visibility and safe remote access for OT systems. The gateways enable safe IT/OT integration, without the threats to physical operations that firewalls always introduce.
