As our world becomes more dependent on technology and the internet, cybersecurity threats continue to rise. This is especially critical when it comes to our society’s critical national infrastructure such as energy, water, transportation, and other industrial systems. And this is where Awen Collective Ltd, a Cardiff-based software company, comes in with their mission to make society safer by increasing cyber resilience.

Their software helps industrial organisations detect, respond, and recover quickly from cyber-attacks, reducing the risk of devastating consequences.
OT Insight – Enhancing Network Visibility and Security
OT Insight is Awen’s flagship product that offers real-time visibility into OT networks with its innovative, passive monitoring capabilities. It analyses the network traffic and behaviour, detects anomalies, and alerts the security team to take prompt action. OT Insight gives industrial organisations actionable insights to assess and mitigate cyber risks, thus maintaining secure and resilient systems.
OT Defence – Protecting the OT Landscape
Awen’s OT Defence solution is specifically designed to protect critical OT infrastructure from cyber-attacks. It provides industrial organisations with automated threat detection and response, leading to faster mitigation and reduced risk. With its proactive threat intelligence, OT Defence anticipates, mitigates, and manages attacks before they can become critical, thus maintaining uninterrupted business operations.

Awen’s OT Cyber Range is a unique training solution designed to create cyber-secure professionals from within an organisation. With its realistic and immersive training environment, the range trains and prepares individuals to recognise, respond, and manage cyber threats within industrial OT systems.
