Managed IT & Security for Manufacturing
Protect uptime, safeguard IP, and align OT/IT—without blowing up shift schedules
What keeps manufacturing leaders up at night
- Ransomware and IP theft disrupting production and supply commitments
- Legacy Windows, PLC/HMI, SCADA, and historian systems with limited patch windows
- OT/IT convergence without clear ownership, segmentation, or change control
- Customer and regulator audits (CMMC/800-171, ISO 27001) with evidence gaps
- Multi-site sprawl, vendor access, and remote plants with thin support
Outcomes TorchLight delivers
- Forecastable uptime with maintenance windows matched to shift schedules
- OT network segmentation (Purdue model), least-privilege access, and vendor controls
- EDR on IT endpoints plus feasible security controls for OT assets
- Compliance-ready policies, risk assessments, and evidence packs for audits
- Single-point vendor coordination across MES/ERP, OEMs, and plant systems
