Every modern company must think about cyber security and find new ways to prepare their organization and their customers or users for the risk of cyber attacks. In the industrial automation sector, Autegra helps companies improve their cyber readiness and develop effective solutions to address cyber risks.
Trying to support the norms required by Industry 4.0, the products used for digitization and modernization in production are becoming “smarter” and more interconnected than before. As a result, they become more vulnerable to cyber attacks. Network segmentation and ordinary software firewalls for these components are no longer a sufficient means of dealing with cyber attacks. The challenges of cyber attacks in infrastructure security can cause unplanned downtime, data loss, property damage, worker health risks and damage to the company’s reputation.
At Autegra, we find the best solutions, from maintaining the safety of consumer products to protecting critical infrastructure. We can help you reduce risk and enable compliance through Cyber Security Assessments that deliver actionable results.
From using industrial firewalls and virtual private networks (VPNs) as a simple and cost-effective way to protect your OT environment securely to implementing Identity Defined Networking (IDN), a solution based on cryptographic identifications to improve your critical network infrastructure on a local or shared network for unmatched highly secure networking, Autegra experts can help you develop a solution that best suits your needs.
When a customer needs to invest in a new machine, make a cost calculation or optimize a process, there are many questions that need to be resolved before the project can begin. An investment assessment should be made based on the available budget in relation to economic and overall benefits. Furthermore, it is important to create an overall time frame for the project and to list other values and risks that could lead to preventing the execution of the project at all.
This obviously requires a lot of time, knowledge and experience from the key person in charge. But this is the reason why you should choose an external project manager from Autegra, who takes over the handling and management of the project, so that you can focus on all the other important tasks in your business. Our project manager ensures that the project plan, together with the entire project team, maintains its goals and priorities – including brainstorming, design, production and assembly.
It is of fundamental importance to focus on these key points and priorities for a quality project outcome and creating success; The plan is closely monitored to ensure that all resources are used in the best possible way and that quality comes first. Regular meetings and constant reporting during the project ensure that all standards are met.
We will always examine what can be done regarding the finances and timelines of a particular project. Good communication is extremely important and is often the solution to challenges that may arise. We have many years of experience, which is known for creating value for our clients – you can leave your project to us.
Autegra offers engineering assistance for an agreed period of time or when the need arises. This means that an engineer from Autegra will be physically present in your company and be part of your project team or development department.
There are several good reasons to use our on-site services:
• We can cover the urgent shortage of professional staff at a critical time of project development,
• We can provide you with skills and knowledge that you or your employees do not currently possess,
• We can offer an idea based on our knowledge and skills.
Our engineers are used to working on different projects for a wide range of clients. Our field engineer is effective from the first day, he quickly gets to know the systems and solves the tasks for which he is in charge. You will have an engineer who is motivated and dedicated, which often leads to the improvement of an already established development department or team. Our engineers treat all data confidentially and make sure that all newly acquired knowledge is transferred at the beginning or end of the worker’s employment period.
As a client, it is possible to choose a long-term cooperation with us, where we provide the optimal amount of suitable engineers for your work. These engineers will be well versed in the appropriate products, methods and work needs, and are able to fully dedicate themselves as if they were a permanent part of your engineering staff.
