Overview

Cyber attacks increasingly target operational system vulnerabilities as the connections between legacy and modern systems grow. As perimeters blur between IT and OT, identity becomes the only reliable principle to protect access to critical manufacturing resources, whether that is a PLC, an HMI, or a historian. Digital transformation towards Industry 4.0 starts with a strong IAM strategy that allows you to expose access at all levels with confidence.

Corsha’s platform embodies zero trust principles anchored in identity security to protect lifecycles, authenticate and govern the identities securing operational systems. Our Identity Provider for Machines allows OT enterprises to securely connect, move data, and automate with confidence from anywhere to anywhere. Corsha uses zero trust principles to build secure identity and access to diverse OT equipment from inside or outside your industrial network and brings innovation like automated, single-use MFA credentials to machine-to-machine communications. Strong identity, access, and encryption for machines helps track all connections, create a unified zero trust baseline, and securely move data across your industrial network in real-time. Bringing Corsha’s Identity Platform into industrial networks allows you to easily monitor, control, and regulate access to your OT assets and securely share data in real-time across OT and IT systems.

Corsha’s mission is to secure data in motion and bring strong identity and zero trust to machines, systems, and services across industrial networks and act as a bridge between OT and IT systems, helping organizations confidently embrace Industry 4.0

Key Capabilities / Features

Automated discovery, inventory and Strong Identity for every Asset connecting to your critical systems that goes beyond simple identifiers like IP or MAC Addresses.


Enforce Dynamic Access Control: Provide real-time visibility into machine activity as well as the ability to instantaneously halt, resume, terminate, or schedule access to any OT enclaves responsive to risk, threats, vendor access for patches, and more.


Retrofit Modern Identity, Access Control, and Observability for Legacy and Proprietary Equipment: Implement strong identity, one-time-use credentials, and short-lived PKI for controllers and HMIs without changing diverse vendor equipment or code anywhere.


Create a STIG'd Access Point to OT Enclave/Devices: Often IT security teams have a hard time accepting OT connections to IT environments because the OT equipment can't be STIG'd. The Corsha Gatekeeper creates a STIG-able access point which can then be connected back to IT systems.


Achieve ATOs and satisfy Zero Trust and NIST 800-82 controls easily: Corsha is already ATO’d across multiple networks and has worked with DoD customers to help accelerate technology adoption on the shop floor by bringing a strong security and compliance baseline.


How we are different

Advanced Focus on Machines
Corsha stands out for its specialized management of machines—from service accounts and automated systems, to a piece of industrial IoT equipment on a shop floor—in OT environments. By prioritizing this often overlooked security aspect, Corsha delivers a more thorough and nuanced protection strategy.


Proactive Access Control with Granular Security
While other solutions emphasize visibility and threat detection, Corsha takes a more proactive stance. Our platform not only identifies potential threats but also actively prevents unauthorized access and enforces stringent security measures in real-time. With granular control over interactions, Corsha ensures a higher level of security management, addressing both current and emerging threats.


Seamless Integration Across OT and IT
Corsha’s unified approach to identity and access management spans both OT and IT systems, enhancing overall security and operational efficiency. This holistic integration provides a cohesive solution that goes beyond just monitoring and visibility. By consolidating identity management under one platform, Corsha offers a more comprehensive option than other platforms who have narrower, specialized focuses.
