With hybrid working and IT/OT convergence accelerating the growth of interconnected devices, many organisations have responded by deploying a broad range of security solutions across multiple vendors to reactively address network security threats. Leading to increased complexity and inconsistent protection across their networks.
At North, we understand that stronger network security is no longer optional. From mature IT environments to the emerging needs of IoT and Operational Technology (OT), we design and deliver integrated security solutions that strengthen your security posture, streamline operations, and adapt to evolving threats in real time.
Through strategic partnerships with leading network security vendors and expert-led services such as advanced OT vulnerability assessments, IT penetration testing, and tailored reporting, we provide the insight and tools needed for a robust, defence-in-depth approach.
Zero Trust Network Access
Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) is at the heart of how North secures IT, OT, and IoT networks, protecting data, users, and systems from threats such as ransomware, data exfiltration, and insider attacks, while ensuring business continuity.
ZTNA encompasses several strategies, technologies and services such as network segmentation, deep packet analysis, threat detection and prevention mechanisms, Network Access Control, two-factor authentication, and many more.
Few organisations have implemented a complete Zero Trust architecture. True Zero Trust strategies must deliver fine-tuned, context-aware policy enforcement, including the ability to allow or block connections to IT systems based on factors like asset vulnerability, user identity and location.
North helps bridge that gap by delivering security that’s embedded, adaptive, and aligned with your operational needs.
Discovery & Monitoring
IT and OT asset discovery and monitoring is the first step. Discovery is followed by network segmentation, patch management and IT/OT aware Network Access Control. It’s then possible to reduce risks from unexpected external connections, unsafe connections, human error, unnecessary traffic flows and erroneous or malicious commands to control systems
Consistent Security Approach
Our platform-based approach consolidates vendors and simplifies IT security architecture. This supports integrated detection and response, tailored incident handling, and resilient operations, even in high-risk environments. With specific capabilities for IT networks, IoT and OT environments, security is improved and centralised management enhanced.
Visibility & Control
With full network and OT visibility and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services, we can secure devices and connections through purpose-built signature based controls. North supports the deployment of capabilities such as protocol-aware firewalls, system-to-system interaction analysis, and endpoint monitoring to detect and mitigate threats.
Network Security for Operational Technology
Operational Technology (OT) systems like CCTV, access control, and building management were designed to operate in isolation. As IT/OT Convergence increases connectivity and functionality, these systems have become critical to real-time decision-making and business intelligence, not just control.
Today, OT environments face growing cyber threats, from insider threats and misconfigurations to targeted attacks exploiting legacy vulnerabilities. Many networks believed to be segregated are, in fact, exposed through overlooked ingress points.
North understands the unique risks of OT and the consequences of downtime and real-world impacts. That’s why our approach integrates secure networking, threat resilience, and visibility from the ground up.
Our OT Assessment service provides a starting point, reviewing current environments, identifying vulnerabilities, and aligning with industry best practice. From asset discovery to threat mitigation, we help you build secure, converged infrastructures that protect what matters.
