Overview

TXOne Element is a family of security inspection tools designed specifically for OT environments. One of its key components, Portable Inspector, is a USB-form-factor malware scanning tool that scans every asset at the IT/OT boundary. Another component, Safe Port, focuses on scanning all portable storage media. Both tools aggregate security insights into a centralized management console—ElementOne.

As digital transformation accelerates on a global scale, supply chain security has become a critical concern. In today’s OT environments, inbound and outbound assets, along with portable storage devices at the OT boundary, are under increasing scrutiny. Mission-critical OT assets are often highly regulated, restricting software installation. This creates a strong need for installation-free security tools that can perform essential security tasks without leaving a footprint—an area where TXOne Element excels.

Incoming assets and portable storage media are among the primary vectors for malware. The Element components work in synergy, cross-examining all devices entering OT environments, regardless of form factor, to uphold cyber hygiene. By doing so, TXOne Element simplifies compliance with stringent regulations and has already been successfully deployed to protect regulation-sensitive assets in transportation, pharmaceuticals, and energy.

Designed for seamless integration into daily operational protocols, TXOne Element prioritizes simplicity, allowing security functions to be executed by general personnel rather than requiring cybersecurity experts. Operating without a network connection or endpoint agents, Element provides an agentless approach to security investigation, making it the ideal complementary solution for seamless and efficient security operations.

How we are different

TXOne Element: Advanced Security Investigation for OT Environments


TXOne Element is designed to facilitate comprehensive security investigations for all assets and devices entering OT environments. It serves as a critical tool for regulatory compliance and proactive risk management.


-Investigation Without Installation
Most security investigation tools require software agents to be installed, which is often prohibited by the commercial terms governing the assets being inspected. TXOne Element overcomes this limitation with pre-installed hardware, ensuring a seamless inspection process that leaves no system footprint once security tasks are completed.


-Security for Today and the Future
TXOne Element not only detects malware but also identifies system vulnerabilities that could evolve into future threats. All collected system data from scanner points is centralized within the ElementOne management console, providing a comprehensive view of asset security and potential risks. This visibility is a cornerstone for proactive risk management.


-Seamless Security Integration
TXOne Element integrates three key components—the kiosk, the inspector tool, and the management console—into a cohesive security ecosystem. Whenever connected, these components automatically synchronize the latest threat intelligence, ensuring all tools remain up to date. This practical approach is especially crucial in OT environments, where network connectivity is often limited.
