NOMINATION HIGHLIGHTS

HyperSOC™ by HWG Sababa represents a next-generation approach to OT security, designed to protect critical infrastructure and industrial environments operating under stringent availability, safety, and regulatory requirements. HyperSOC embodies a future-proof OT SOC model by combining compliance readiness, data-centric operations, platform integration, and contextual threat intelligence into a unified operational framework tailored to IT/OT convergence.

Unlike traditional SOC or MDR offerings designed primarily for IT environments, HyperSOC is architected to secure complex OT and hybrid infrastructures end to end, where cyber incidents can have direct physical, safety, and societal impact. It delivers 24×7 monitoring and response across IT, OT, and IoT environments, providing unified visibility across sectors such as energy, utilities, manufacturing, transportation, and other forms of critical infrastructure operating at national and international scale.

At the core of HyperSOC is Pulse™, HWG Sababa’s proprietary orchestration platform, which integrates telemetry from both IT and OT security controls and industrial systems. Pulse™ correlates signals, enriches events with threat intelligence and operational context, and orchestrates detection, investigation, and response workflows while respecting the constraints of OT environments, where availability and safety take precedence over aggressive remediation.

HyperSOC actively supports compliance with OT-relevant regulatory and security frameworks, including IEC 62443, NIS2, NMR, CRA, sector-specific regulations, and national critical infrastructure requirements. It implements a standardized and scalable data strategy for OT telemetry, manages complex and heterogeneous security platforms, and embeds threat intelligence focused on industrial threats directly into SOC operations.

A key differentiator of HyperSOC in OT security is its continuous evolution through collaboration. The model is actively developed in cooperation with national institutions, critical infrastructure operators, and leading universities, ensuring alignment with real-world OT threat scenarios, geopolitical risks, and emerging attack techniques targeting industrial systems. This ecosystem-driven approach enables HyperSOC to remain ahead of evolving threats to critical infrastructure.

HyperSOC transforms OT security from a siloed, reactive function into a resilient, intelligence-driven operational capability that protects continuity of service and societal trust.
For organizations responsible for critical infrastructure, HyperSOC sets a benchmark for excellence in OT security, combining operational discipline, innovation, and collaboration to safeguard essential services.
