As a leader in providing user-friendly, high-protection security products, ShareTech has found that security is the most primary key to the transformation of the Internet of Things. In most OT factories, they are facing 3 types of high risks, including remote connections, network connections and end-point connecitons. Bringing zero-trust architecture into the IoT environment is an important trend. ShareTech’s intranet protection equipment (INF series) or industrial control protection equipment (OTS series) can help OT intranets achieve five important protection points and gradually implement the zero-trust goal.

First, network micro-segmentation (Micro-Segmentation) is the most basic concept of the zero-trust security model to protect medical institutions from reducing potential attacks and damage caused by any hacker intrusion. Second, ShareTech SSL VPN supports a multi-factor authentication mechanism. In addition to authentication, it also supports third-party verification (Google/Microsoft Authenticator) to prevent unauthorized users from entering the enterprise's intranet. Only authorized users are allowed to access specific resources (such as hosts, systems, or databases). Third, the collaborative defense function of firewalls and switches can improve intranet security. By detecting abnormal behaviors and filtering packet traffic in and out of the network (such as IPS and Sandstorm), abnormal activities or potential threats can be detected which allows administrators to take immediate blocking action. Fourth, it supports WAF, which can block all websites. Organizations can set appropriate WAF regulations in the firewall to analyze and filter all traffic before HTTP/HTTPS access and requests to enter the websites. Malicious and suspicious connections and be effectively eliminated. Fifth, continuous behavior monitoring can record network and user activities to understand valuable information such as hacker-related attack attempts, abnormal access, and security events, which will help the unit’s subsequent investigation and analysis.

In addition, ShareTech also integrates other supporting services, such as Eye Cloud, a cloud management system, to help hospitals establish a complete management mechanism supporting effective monitoring and maintenance. We also provide social engineering, vulnerability scanning services, education and training, and security reports. From predicting events, proactive defense, tracing sources, and achieving dynamic optimization, it helps OT intranets fundamentally reduce information security risks.
