Operational technology (OT) secure remote access software is designed to protect remote connections between operators and OT environments, which typically involve industrial equipment and machinery. If compromised, these environments pose both physical and digital risks. Companies utilize OT secure remote access software to manage user access, assign privileges, and monitor activities for any anomalies, threats, or misuse. These tools are generally managed by IT and security teams experienced in handling complex industrial systems. As more equipment becomes connected and remote workforces expand, the need for secure access to OT environments has grown. While OT secure remote access software shares features with privileged access management (PAM) software and IoT security software, it is uniquely tailored to safeguard critical operational environments, which neither PAM nor IoT security tools are specifically designed to protect.
