Secure the OT Perimeter Without Disrupting Operations

The OT perimeter isn't defined by firewalls alone. It's defined by how data moves.

As IT and OT environments become increasingly connected, organizations need better control over how data moves between operational systems, business applications, and third parties. Yet many file transfers still rely on legacy processes, unmanaged scripts, manual handoffs, and insecure transfer methods that create unnecessary risk.

Globalscape helps organizations secure, govern, and automate data movement across IT, OT, and external environments, without requiring costly rip-and-replace projects. 

The OT Challenge

Anchor ID:

#the-ot-challenge--20700

Risk Often Lives at the OT Boundary. Most organizations focus on securing systems. But risk often emerges where data crosses between IT, OT, and external environments. 

Common Challenges:

Legacy Systems

Legacy Systems: Critical OT systems often can't be easily replaced, upgraded, or patched.

manual transfers & USBs

Manual Transfers & USBs: Removable media and manual file movement create visibility, security, and compliance concerns.

Scripts & Homegrown Processes

Scripts & Homegrown Processes: Custom automation introduces operational risk and dependency on institutional knowledge.

Third-Party Access

Third-Party Access: Contractors, suppliers, cloud platforms, and partners expand the attack surface.

Globalscape offers a user-friendly, robust way to secure and modernize data movement across IT and OT. Organizations can:  

  • Reduce Cyber Risk by centralizing and securing file transfers with encryption, audit logging, authentication controls, and policy-based governance.
  • Modernize without replacing OT systems
  • Improve security and visibility while preserving existing operational infrastructure.
  • Replace scripts with automation to reduce manual effort, eliminate fragile processes, and improve reliability with workflow automation.
  • Strengthen compliance and governance by gaining centralized visibility into transfers, users, policies, and audit activity.
  • Secure third-party connectivity by controlling how data is exchanged with vendors, contractors, suppliers, and partners.
  • Reduce the attack surface by supporting secure IT/OT architectures that maintain separation between trusted and untrusted environments.
