IT & security for Longview's industrial economy.
Because downtime is the whole ransom model.

Why it matters here

Manufacturers are ransomware's favorite victims

Downtime is the leverage

Ransomware operators price demands against your cost of standing still. A Longview fabricator with trucks waiting and delivery penalties has almost no tolerance for a locked ERP system — and attackers know it. Manufacturing ranks among the most-attacked industries in the country, and mid-sized plants without security staff are the preferred targets: valuable enough to pay, small enough to be soft.

The office network touches the plant

Most industrial compromises start with an ordinary phishing email in the front office and move sideways into production. If your business network and plant systems aren't segmented and monitored, one clicked link can idle the line. That segmentation is one of the first things we check in an assessment.

Your customers are starting to ask

Defense primes and large manufacturers now push security questionnaires and CMMC requirements down to their suppliers. Longview machine shops and component makers will need documented security programs to keep those contracts — we build and maintain that documentation.
