Product Details

BlastShield simplifies the challenge of microsegmentation by creating simple peer-to-peer encrypted and authenticated tunnels to each device or group of devices without complex firewall rulesets. IT and OT network staff and temporary contractors are permitted access to only the systems they are responsible for, and privileges can be granted and revoked in real-time. BlastShield prevents lateral movement by Secure Remote Access users within the network and can even provide lateral movement protection at Layer 2 for local network connections.

Why choose BlastWave for Network Segmentation?

Reconnaissance-Proof Software Defined Perimeter to prevent device discovery and vulnerability exposure with Network Cloaking
Phishing-Resistant Biometric Multifactor Authentication for Regulatory-Compliant Secure Remote Access
Delivers Least Privilege Access Policies and prevents Lateral Movement with Network Microsegmentation

Who Should Deploy This Technology?

Organizations that would like to reduce risk to their network through advanced segmentation, better user management, traffic encryption and network obfuscation.This technology will also assist in meeting Cyber Security requirements for “network segmentation including zones and conduits” as outlined in a number of frameworks and regulations including NERC-CIP, CMMC, NIST CSF, and IEC62443.

What Other Options Should Be Considered When Deploying This Technology?

If you currently do not have a firewall on the network perimeter between the IT systems and OT networks, deploying a Fortinet Rugged Firewall with the OT Security Pack is an excellent choice. If you also have requirements for continuous network monitoring, the IOT 365 AI based OT SIEM will provide visibility into cyber threats on the network and meet requirements for continuous security monitoring of OT environments.

FAQs

Q: What if I need to add more users
A: Additional Users can be added to account in 3 user packs please email or call us for a custom quote. Contact us at Sales@OTCyberDirect.com or call 1-508-289-1195 for more details.

Q: What if I have a system or a device that’s outside of my industrial control environment but for which I want to have a connection.
A: We have options available for this installation, but require some additional information to quote. Contact us at Sales@OTCyberDirect.com or call 1-508-289-1195 for more details.

Q: This technology has been described as Hybrid - what does that mean?
A: BlastWave provides redundant on-prem data collector gateways that pick up traffic just below the firewall and then sends that information via a secure, encrypted channel to an instance of AWS cloud where the control software is accessed and users manage the application. This reduces implementation cost, advanced security, and provides much easier support of the deployment.

Q: Is the BlastWave application easy to install and configure?
A: Yes, most organizations that have some networking expertise either internal or external to the organization can setup the initial system and see results in a few hours. Our support team is available via video conference to help troubleshoot any initial installation issues.

Q: What support is available for this application?
A: BlastWave provides installation support at no cost and first, second- and third-level support for more complex networking issues.

Q: What is the warranty on this equipment?
A: Please refer to the product data sheet for detailed warranty information.

Q: Do you ship outside of the United States?
A: No, but we can refer you to the International Team at BlastWave for assistance in purchasing outside the U.S.

Q: What if my network is more complex or I have multiple sites, can this technology be used?
A: Yes, but it would be helpful to understand the network and application so we can quote the appropriate gateway setups, including large gateways that can handle larger deployments. Contact us at Sales@OTCyberDirect.com or call 1-508-289-1195 for more details.
