will collaborate with Nozomi to provide
customers in the industrial manufacturing
and critical infrastructure segments advanced
anomaly detection, vulnerability assessment
and other cybersecurity solutions and
services, helping them to control, prevent
and mitigate risks to their operations and
business performance.
“The industry-wide transformation
taking place today enables our customers to
improve their business performance in ways
they never imagined, but it requires them to
expand connectivity across their operations,

so they can extract, contextualise and
apply new levels of rich data,” said Nathalie
Marcotte, Senior Vice President, Industry
Services and Cybersecurity, Schneider Electric.
“However, extending connectivity also
extends the attack surface for would-be
cybercriminals. Therefore, cybersecurity can
no longer be an afterthought. There’s too
much at stake, financially and operationally.
By adding Nozomi Networks to our family of
partners, we strengthen our ability to help

and threats to their operations and assets,
while reducing potential impact on their
business success.”
