Bridewell has announced a strategic partnership with Forescout to help Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) organisations enhance their cyber resilience across IT and OT environments.

According to the companies, the partnership builds on Bridewell’s range of Managed Security Services (MSS) by integrating Forescout solutions to address customer’s requirements that aren’t being met by their existing tooling from other vendors.

Addressing gaps

“At Bridewell, we already offer a wide range of SOC services that cover IT and OT,” said Martin Riley, CTO at Bridewell.

“However, there are real gaps our customers have that aren’t being met by their existing investment in security tooling.

“Forescout have a great pedigree in helping organisations identify and manage their assets – particularly in the OT space.

“Working together will ensure we can help our customers address these gaps and deliver a complete, end-to-end IT and OT SOC capability.”

With traditional security tooling not always providing organisations with much needed capabilities across low-level security monitoring, asset management and vulnerability management for IT, OT and SCADA, Bridewell’s partnership with Forescout will ensure these needs are met through their solutions.

Ensuring compliance

“Bridewell’s experience in securing large scale CNI organisations provides them with the right expertise to augment our solutions with human expertise, through their managed security services.” added Andy Milne, RVP Sales Northern Europe at Forescout.

“This partnership will bring us closer to our mission of continuously identifying, protecting and ensuring the compliance of all cyber assets across the modern organisation.”
