OT u0026 IoT Security

Industrial systems, medical devices, sensors, cameras, and connected infrastructure keep expanding the attack surface while operating outside traditional endpoint security models. Faction delivers Zero Trust for the OT and IoT that software cannot secure.

Most OT and IoT devices cannot run security agents. They lack the resources for encryption or a programmable interface, or they run legacy operating systems that can no longer be patched. The result is a growing population of connected devices that traditional, software-only tools simply cannot reach. And it is no longer only data at risk: an attacker who reaches connected OT and IoT systems can disrupt the business itself.

Faction Pods and Portals are secure networking appliances that extend an owner-controlled Zero Trust network to a physical location over Wi-Fi and Ethernet. Any device — regardless of age or capability — is protected simply by connecting it behind a Pod, with no software installed on the device itself. Whatever connects joins your private, owner-controlled network, where the keys belong to you and the control plane stays off the public internet.

• Protection for cameras, controllers, PLCs, SCADA, sensors, and legacy equipment that cannot secure itself
• Devices reachable only from inside the network, removing the public-internet attack surface
• Every device cryptographically verified before any access — no shared passwords, no anonymous connections
• App-based adoption with an owner-held key, out-of-band, with no IT ticket
• US-made, Cyber-Assured hardware that deploys alongside existing infrastructure — no rip-and-replace

The hardware also mitigates the threat from compromised routers and smart hardware already inside your network — extending owner-controlled trust to the devices that have, until now, been left out of Zero Trust entirely.
