CHALLENGE

The IT/OT Convergence Risk

Modern manufacturing relies on connected Operational Technology (OT). However, legacy PLCs and industrial switches are often fragile and difficult to manage. A bad config push can stop a production line for hours.

Manufacturers struggle to gain visibility into these industrial networks, often relying on manual spreadsheets that are outdated the moment they are saved, leading to security gaps and compliance failures (IEC 62443).

  • Legacy OT equipment mixed with modern IT gear
  • Strict uptime requirements for production lines
  • Limited visibility into device-level config changes
  • Compliance pressure (NIST, NIS2, IEC 62443)
SOLUTION

Unified Industrial Management

rConfig provides a unified monitoring and backup plane for both IT and OT assets. Our non-intrusive backup methods ensure that fragile legacy equipment is safely archived without disrupting operations.

We enable plant managers to track exactly who changed settings on critical aggregation switches, ensuring accountability and rapid remediation if a change negatively impacts production.

  • Unified NCM for OT + IT on the factory floor
  • Real-Time Change Notifications on industrial zones
  • Automated Safe Backups for OT assets
  • Rollback Engine prevents downtime
  • Offline / Air-Gap Support for regulated sites
OUTCOMES

Production Continuity

Measurable impact in weeks not months.

  • Recoverability

    Ensured 100% of PLCs and industrial switches have a valid, recent backup available for disaster recovery.

  • Control

    Eliminated 'shadow engineering' changes by implementing strict drift detection across the plant network.

  • Firmware Updates with Zero Downtime

    Enabled campus-wide firmware updates with minimal impact on operations.
