Agilicus Joins Global Cybersecurity Alliance to Push OT Standards
Agilicus has entered the International Society of Automation’s Global Cybersecurity Alliance, signaling a push to integrate zero-trust architecture into the ISA/IEC 62443 framework. This partnership aims to bolster the security of critical infrastructure by moving away from traditional perimeter-based defenses toward identity-centric access control.
Don Bowman, CEO and founder of Agilicus, noted that the collaboration will specifically target emerging challenges, including AI-driven threats and compliance requirements such as NERC CIP. For the International Society of Automation, the addition of a cloud-native provider represents a strategic effort to modernize the defense of industrial networks, ensuring that security measures keep pace with the increasing connectivity of operational environments.
