Secure access.
Built for OT.
One platform to securely connect employees, vendors, and service providers to OT environments, with browser-based sessions, approval workflows, live monitoring, recordings, and audit evidence under your control.
Connectivity
No inbound
Connections initiated from your side
Oversight
Every session
Approved, recorded and auditable
Protocols
Browser + tunnels
RDP, SSH, VNC, HTTP(S) in-browser, plus tunnels for native tools
The problem
Remote access to OT has become fragmented.
Every new vendor, site and technology can introduce another access method. What starts as a practical solution quickly becomes difficult to control, monitor and audit.
01
Vendor VPNs
Each OEM and integrator arrives with a tunnel chosen for their convenience, not for your security team.
02
Jump hosts
Standing infrastructure that becomes a trusted path into OT, often with credentials no one remembers issuing.
03
Shared accounts
One login used by many hands. When something changes on an asset, attribution is guesswork.
04
Multiple remote tools
A different remote support product for every supplier, none of them under a single policy.
05
Uncontrolled file transfers
Files cross the boundary in both directions with little inspection and no consistent record.
06
Limited session visibility
Without monitoring and a recording, you find out what happened after it has already happened.
Otector brings these access paths together into one purpose-built platform.
The platform
One platform for controlled OT access.
Every capability works to the same model: control who connects, connect them securely, supervise the work, and prove what happened.
Control access
Approve who can connect, to which asset, for what reason, and during which time window.
Connect securely
Browser-based access to OT assets through the Otector platform and outbound Site Agent architecture.
Supervise work
Monitor live sessions, detect risky actions, guide operators, and control file movement.
Prove what happened
Retain recordings, transcripts, access logs, flow decisions, alerts and audit-ready evidence.
Where to start
Choose your access challenge.
For asset owners
Control access to your OT assets.
Decide who can connect, when they can connect, and what evidence is retained, across employees, vendors and service providers.
For asset ownersFor service providers
Support every client from one workspace.
Work across every Otector-enabled client from one portal, without client-specific VPN sprawl, while the client stays in control.
For service providersFor security teams
See and prove what happened.
Monitor sessions, detect risky activity, and produce evidence for audit and investigation across every site.
Security & architectureHow it works
Connections towards OT are initiated from your side.
Internal users and external engineers reach the same assets through different front doors, over a connection your architecture initiates. The Service Provider Portal has no direct network path into your OT environment.

Why Otector
Four things that make the difference.
01 /
Keep control of your OT
Define who can connect, to which assets, through which connection profile and during which authorised window.
02 /
Connect without opening inbound access
Use outbound-initiated connectivity to reach industrial assets without exposing a direct inbound path from the service provider or Otector into the OT environment.
03 /
Control more than the connection
Apply approval workflows, step-up authentication, file security, session recording and monitoring around every remote interaction.
04 /
One workspace for service providers
Give external engineers a consistent way to support multiple customers without giving them standing network access to client environments.
Platform capabilities
Everything you need around the session.
Otector is built to control the full interaction, not simply to establish a connection.
Industries
Built for environments where remote access must be controlled
Otector is designed for organizations that need to give employees, vendors, OEMs, integrators and service providers access to operational environments without losing control over scope, approvals, monitoring and evidence.
Manufacturing
Control OEM, integrator and maintenance access to production environments.
Healthcare
Govern vendor access to hospital infrastructure and technical environments.
Water utilities
Standardize access across treatment plants, pumping stations and remote sites.
Energy & utilities
Scope contractor and specialist access across distributed operational assets.
Pharmaceutical manufacturing
Control support for production, packaging, facilities and specialist systems.
Food & beverage
Govern remote support for production lines, utilities, OEMs and maintenance partners.
Use cases
Common remote access challenges Otector helps solve
Launching customers & partners
As we move towards our first commercial release, we are opening a limited number of places for launching customers and partners.
These are for organisations and providers who want early access to Otector and the opportunity to help shape the platform. And we are far enough along to show you, not just tell you about it.
Why now
Common reasons teams look at Otector.
“We need to reduce vendor VPN access.”
“We need evidence for remote OT sessions.”
“We need to standardise access across sites.”
“We need to know what service providers actually did.”
“We need a safer way to support maintenance windows.”
“We need to strengthen remote access for NIS2 and IEC 62443-inspired programs.”
Ready when you are
Bring control back to remote OT access.
Give teams the access they need while keeping approvals, monitoring, recordings and audit evidence under your control.
