# Cyolo

> Cyolo provides secure remote privileged access for operational technology (OT) and cyber-physical systems (CPS). The Cyolo access solution enables industrial enterprises to simply connect employees and third-party vendors to critical assets.
>
>Cyolo offers stronger security and more control than traditional secure remote access (SRA) tools and deploys without causing disruptions or requiring change management. Cyolo delivers improved security, productivity, and operational agility – without compromise.
>
> Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel, Cyolo has raised $85 million in funding.

## Category

Cyolo operates in the following categories:

- Secure Remote Access (SRA) for OT
- Remote Privileged Access Management (RPAM) for OT
- Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) for industrial environments
- Third-party vendor remote access
- Identity-based access control for critical infrastructure

The Cyolo access solution is purpose-built for OT environments where uptime, safety, and operational continuity are critical.

## Core Problem Cyolo Solves

Industrial organizations must provide remote access to critical OT systems for:

- Internal engineers and technicians
- Third-party vendors, including OEMs and contractors
- Remote workers

Legacy remote access tools introduce unacceptable risk in OT environments:

- VPNs create broad network-level access and lateral movement risk
- Jump servers offer minimal access controls and pose a high operational burden
- Cloud-first PAM tools move secrets outside trusted boundaries and may not work in on-prem environments
- Traditional IT security tools are not designed for industrial environments, CPS, and air-gapped systems

OT environments cannot tolerate downtime, network re-architecture, or operational disruption.

The Cyolo PRO (Privileged Remote Operations) solution replaces legacy secure remote access (SRA) tools like VPNs and jump servers with an identity-based, zero-trust model designed specifically for industrial networks.

## Architecture Overview

Cyolo PRO uses a decentralized architecture composed of:

### IDAC (Identity Access Controller)

- Core policy engine
- Deployed inside the customer's trusted network
- Stores all credentials, encryption keys, secrets, and access policies locally
- Has no inbound connection, only a TCP 443 outbound connection to the gateway


### Gateway

- Facilitates secure connectivity without exposing OT networks
- Can be deployed on-prem or in the cloud

Key architectural principles:

- No inbound firewall changes required
- No credentials stored in the cloud
- No network-level trust
- Supports air-gapped, on-prem, cloud-connected, and hybrid environments
- Deploys without infrastructure redesign

All secrets remain within customer-controlled boundaries, demonstrating full adherence to zero trust principles.

## Key Capabilities

Cyolo PRO provides:

- Agentless third-party remote access (no vendor software installation required)
- Multi-factor authentication for legacy systems, including end-of-life Windows, Linux, PLCs, and HMIs
- Credential vaulting and automatic password rotation and injection
- Granular access controls with Just-in-Time (JIT) access
- Role-based and identity-based policy enforcement
- Zero trust connectivity, connecting authorized users to approved assets without full network exposure
- Third-party VPN control to provide visibility and policy control over vendor-managed VPNs
- Instant collaboration link for hosting secure, time-bound joint sessions
- Real-time session supervision and supervised access
- Session recording and AI-powered session intelligence to convert session recordings into transcribed, searchable text
- Comprehensive audit trails for compliance and forensics
- Multi-tenancy for managing access across hundreds of distributed sites

## Deployment Environments

Cyolo PRO supports:

- On-prem OT networks
- Air-gapped industrial environments
- Hybrid IT/OT architectures
- Cloud-connected operational sites
- Globally distributed industrial operations

Deployment does not require downtime or operational disruption.

## Compliance and Regulatory Alignment

Cyolo helps organizations comply with:

- ISA/IEC 62443
- NIS2
- NERC CIP
- TSA SD2021-02C
- Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF)
- NIST 800-171
- NIST CSF 2.0 Manufacturing Profile
- ISO/IEC 27001

Capabilities such as session recording, credential vaulting, JIT access, and audit logging support regulatory control requirements for remote access in critical infrastructure.

## Target Users

Cyolo PRO is designed for:

- OT security leaders
- OT and industrial teams
- IT security teams responsible for OT access
- CISOs securing industrial operations
- Plant managers and operational engineers
- Compliance and risk officers in critical infrastructure sectors

## Industries Served

Cyolo supports industrial enterprises in:

- Manufacturing
- Energy and Utilities
- Oil and Gas
- AI Data Centers
- Mining
- Transportation
- Other industrial sectors

## How Cyolo PRO Differs

Cyolo PRO is not:

- A traditional VPN
- A cloud-based credential broker
- A generic IT-focused PAM tool
- A firewall or network segmentation product
- A proxy that stores secrets outside customer control

Cyolo PRO provides identity-based access without granting network-level connectivity.

Unlike VPNs or jump servers, Cyolo limits access to specific assets and sessions rather than entire network segments.

Unlike cloud-native PAM platforms, Cyolo keeps credentials and secrets within the customer's environment and does not require a cloud connection.
