Security at the edge.
Where the physical world
meets the network.
PacketViper deploys enforcement at the point where cyber and physical systems converge – autonomous, agentless, inline – without requiring cloud connectivity or central management to act.
The most vulnerable point in any CPS environment is the edge. That’s where PacketViper lives.
Security was designed for the core. CPS environments fail at the edge.
A city’s traffic management system is attacked. The breach entry point wasn’t the central operations center – it was a roadside cabinet, physically accessible, containing a controller running 15-year-old firmware with default credentials and a network port facing the municipal LAN.
By the time the NOC noticed anomalous behavior, the attacker had been inside for six days.
Central management consoles, cloud-based detection platforms, and enterprise SIEMs were built for environments where everything connects back to a data center. Industrial edge locations don’t work that way. They’re remote. They’re physically accessible. They run legacy equipment.
What attackers find at the edge
Legacy firmware. Default credentials. Flat networks. Physical access with a key. No enforcement at the cabinet level. 6 days before the NOC noticed.
Why central tools don’t protect edge assets
When the edge cabinet network connection drops, central detection stops. When physical access bypasses network security, the only protection that matters is the one already at that location.
Enforcement at the edge. Autonomous when it needs to be.
Remote Security Unit
Deploys at the edge – inside traffic cabinet racks, ICS control rooms, remote substations, water treatment pump stations. Self-contained enforcement and detection. No cloud dependency. No gap during outage.
Autonomous Operation
If central management connection drops – planned maintenance, network outage, active attack – the RSU continues enforcing the last known policy. When connectivity restores, it syncs. No gap. No window of vulnerability.
Transparent Bridge Installation
Goes inline on the existing network path. No reconfiguration of existing equipment. Nothing changes for the equipment it’s protecting. No agents. No firmware updates. No active scanning.
Physical Intrusion Detection
An attacker who breaches a cabinet and connects a laptop finds a network populated with services – and every probe they run generates enforcement action and logs their fingerprint.
Edge AMTD
Moving target defense deployed at the physical perimeter. Sensors rotating continuously. Every scan costs the attacker. Reconnaissance becomes expensive at the place it matters most.
SCADA Integration
Security events appear in existing operator displays via Modbus – field operators see security alerts in the same systems they use to monitor operations, without learning a new tool.
Air-Gap Compatible
No internet dependency. No cloud calls required for enforcement. Works in the most isolated edge environments.
Tested in the environments that matter.
Your blind spots are at the edge. RSUs close them.
For Security Teams
Edge locations are your blind spots. RSUs close them with enforcement that operates even when you can’t reach the site.
For OT Operators
The RSU doesn’t touch your controllers, doesn’t require firmware updates, and doesn’t introduce new failure modes into your edge infrastructure.
For Leadership
Physical security and cyber security converge at the edge. One platform covers both sides of that convergence – no separate physical security management layer required.

Cyber-physical security addresses environments where digital network threats can cause physical operational consequences - power outages, equipment damage, process disruptions, or safety incidents. PacketViper is purpose-built for these environments, enforcing inline security at the boundary between digital control systems and the physical processes they manage.
PacketViper deploys inline at the IT/OT boundary, enforcing security policies that understand both enterprise IT traffic and OT protocol communications. It prevents lateral movement from IT networks into OT, detects unauthorized commands to industrial devices, and maintains the operational isolation that the Purdue Model intended - in practice rather than just in theory.
