• Plants with regular contractor and vendor traffic that need every incoming USB drive checked before it touches the control network
• Sites without a full-time security team, where operators or maintenance staff need to run media checks themselves
• Teams already using TXOne Portable Inspectors that want automated pattern updates and centralized log collection
• Asset owners with removable-media policies to enforce, for example utilities scoping NERC CIP-003 and CIP-010 controls for removable media and transient devices [PENDING Jim/Phil sign-off on this mapping]
• Cleanroom and gowned environments (pharma, semiconductor, food), where the touchscreen works through cleanroom gloves

• Cleans USB drives in under a minute (TXOne claim) before they reach OT systems
• Touchscreen interface built for operators, not security analysts
• All-in-one unit with no keyboard or mouse
• Fanless design with no airflow filters to service
• Secure transfer of malware-free files from external media to secure OT transfer devices
• Collects and aggregates Portable Inspector audit data for reporting in ElementOne
• Regular detection pattern and software updates

What does Safe Port actually do? It scans removable USB media for malware and cleans it before the media is used in your OT environment. It also collects scan and audit logs from TXOne Portable Inspectors and sends them to ElementOne.

How fast is it? TXOne rates it at up to 7,200 files per minute, measured in their lab, and says it sanitizes a USB device in under a minute. Real results depend on the drive's contents and system configuration.

What happens when it finds malware? Safe Port supports three scan actions: Log, Clean, and Lock.

Which file systems can it scan? FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, and exFAT.

Does it need an internet connection for updates? No. It supports both online and offline pattern updates, so it can run at sites with no internet connection.

Does someone need security training to use it? No. It's designed for non-technical users, with a touchscreen interface and simple scan results.

Can operators use it with gloves on? Cleanroom gloves are supported. General work gloves may work, with reduced touch sensitivity.

Does it need a keyboard or mouse? No. Everything runs from the touchscreen.

How does it work with Portable Inspector? Safe Port pushes pattern updates to Portable Inspectors automatically and collects their scan and audit logs for aggregation in ElementOne.

Where can it be installed? Indoors, in an operating range of 0°C to 50°C and 0–90% non-condensing humidity. It's fanless, so the case can get hot; keep it out of direct sunlight.

What maintenance does it need? Very little. The fanless design means there are no airflow filters to clean or replace. Keep detection patterns up to date.
