OTfuse for Cimplicity adds another layer of network protocol security

About OTfuse Simplicity

Evolving security best practices require protections at both the application layer and the network layer. Cimplicity is application robust, but it is application software that runs on Windows workstations and generic IP networks.

Cimplicity is not, by itself, a network product and cannot mitigate unauthorized network communications. Therefore, best practices suggest that every production environment should augment the network where Cimplicity resides with additional network-level security tools.

OTfuse Cimplicity is specifically designed to provide network security for Cimplicity 6.x installations. It is the only product on the market that provides native deep packet inspection of six proprietary protocols GE Cimplicity and allows automatic and real-time protection. OTfuse alleviates the cost of hiring a team of security specialists to continuously monitor and deal with a flood of anomaly alerts and eliminates the delay required for manually reviewing security risks before any response to a threat can be made.
