Teesside jobs to be created through international cybersecurity partnership

An industrial technology firm is set to create North East jobs with a new international partnership.

Specialist independent systems integrator Industrial Technology Systems (ITS) has announced it is partnering with US and Israel-based provider of industrial cybersecurity solutions Radiflow.

The firm will implement new operational technology (OT) cybersecurity services for preventing business interruption for its process manufacturing customers based on Radiflow’s portfolio of industrial cybersecurity technologies.

Mark Taylor, director of business development at ITS, commented: “Radiflow’s portfolio of game-changing industrial cybersecurity technologies empowers us to offer a new set of valuable services for our customers to maintain complete visibility and control of their OT and IT networks.

“The Radiflow technologies give us the essential tools to detect anomalies in real-time to the operations of a network and implement the appropriate measures to protect the facilities of customers from any cybersecurity weaknesses or vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious third parties.”

The firm, which specialises in process control and management information system solutions for regulated industries, anticipates that the partnership with Radiflow will create new jobs in its Middlesbrough headquarters.

David Moss, vice president of sales at Radiflow, added: “As we ramp up our presence in the process manufacturing space, we are seeing more and more system integrators, MSSPs and end users looking for OT cybersecurity solutions to address the risks of business interruption in operational environments.

“We have strong expectations for building a long term relationship with ITS and playing a significant role in helping the company better serve its customers.”
