New Analyst Report Gives Claroty the Highest Scores Possible in the Vision, Asset Discovery & Identification, Risk Posture Management, and Privileged Remote Access Criteria

NEW YORK, June 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Claroty, the cyber-physical systems (CPS) protection company, today announced that Forrester Research named the company as a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave™: Operational Technology Security Solutions, Q2 2024. In the report, Claroty received the top score among the Strong Performers in the strategy category, as well as the highest scores possible in the criteria of asset discovery and identification, privileged remote access, risk posture management, and policy and rule management within the current offering category.

According to the Forrester report, operational technology (OT) security solutions customers should look for providers that “understand the unique challenges and characteristics of industrial control devices and how to secure them without affecting device performance or daily operations.”

The report continues, “Claroty is ideally suited for industrial organizations, including healthcare, that need to manage assets, threats, and vulnerabilities across a diverse IoT and OT environment.”

Forrester also recommends customers “look for OT security vendors that can solve multiple cybersecurity use cases with a platform of capabilities that can seamlessly integrate with the existing cybersecurity technology portfolio and evolve over time.”

Per the report, “Claroty offers a modular platform to secure interconnected extended IoT (xIoT) and OT devices. Claroty’s product vision is to facilitate a shift from a network to an asset-centric OT security strategy grounded in Zero Trust principles, which fits well with the macro trends of IoT device proliferation and the collapse of traditional network boundaries between IT and OT environments. Claroty has a comprehensive and ambitious roadmap that balances incremental feature updates combined with quantum leap forward improvements, like advanced smart scanning, organized into an insightful challenge-solution style.”

Additionally, the report states, “Claroty has extended its passive and active discovery capabilities with Claroty Edge, which is a portable host-based executable that can discover assets in a local subnet or easily be transported to a remote location for a point-in-time collection of hard-to-reach devices. Reference customers rely on Claroty’s active and passive asset discovery capabilities and appreciate the ability to load third-party data like SBOM documents to enrich asset information. Risk posture management features include the ability to run simulations to evaluate the impact of applied remediations to the risk score.”

This report comes on the heels of Claroty’s market-leading move to redefine CPS protection by launching the industry’s most comprehensive, unified platform to secure all CPS, including OT, enterprise IoT, and connected medical devices (IoMT). The Claroty Platform leverages unrivaled industry expertise to deliver the deepest asset visibility and broadest solution set in the market today. Platform capabilities that Claroty believes align to key criteria in the Forrester Wave report include:

Asset Discovery and Identification: Claroty helps users quickly operationalize their Asset Inventory with a precision-driven and “right-for-me” approach that employs multiple, distinct asset discovery methods, paired with visibility orchestration capabilities and an AI-powered analysis engine to deliver the fastest time-to-value.Privileged Remote Access: Purpose-built for the specific needs of the OT domain, the newly enhanced Claroty xDome Secure Access uses the industry’s deepest asset profiles and policies to provide privileged access and identity management & governance for first and third-party users.Risk Posture Management: Claroty’s CPS-native Exposure Management solution equips customers to understand their current CPS risk posture, allocate their existing resources to improve it more efficiently and effectively, and ultimately accelerate their journey to CPS security maturity – no matter their starting point.Policy and Rule Management: Claroty’s Network Protection solution drives effective network segmentation and anomaly detection with the industry’s first out-of-the-box zone and communication policy recommendations for various CPS based on in-depth insight into operational context and best practices.

“We believe that Claroty was named a Strong Performer because our unified platform eliminates the need to purchase and maintain multiple point products,” said Yaniv Vardi, CEO of Claroty. “Our dynamic comprehensive approach is why Claroty is so well-equipped to secure mission-critical infrastructure while offering the quickest time-to-value and a lower total cost of ownership.”

January 11, 2025

Docking Drawer, the leader in in-drawer outlet solutions, is set to showcase its newly configured Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas this February 2025.

SAN RAMON, Calif., Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Docking Drawer’s Unwavering Dedication to Safety

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality.”

When it comes to safety, no one in the industry matches the focus and innovation of Docking Drawer. Their Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages bring a unique, forward-thinking solution to an often-overlooked area in kitchen design. These safety outlets automatically de-energize an appliance garage power source when the cabinet door is closed, ensuring that appliances are safely powered off when contained inside the cabinet.

Docking Drawer is also the only company dedicated to creating in-cabinet electrical solutions that meet the strict code requirements of the Canadian marketplace. Their Safety Interlock Outlets are designed to make in-cabinet electricity compliant in Canada while offering consumers in all regions an additional layer of safety for in-cabinet power.

Advanced Limit Switch Technology

Docking Drawer’s Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages utilize an advanced Limit Switch system, designed to work seamlessly with power outlets concealed by a cabinet door. This intuitive feature detects when the cabinet door is closed, instantly cutting power to the connected outlet and all powered appliances.

Now Compatible with Any Appliance Garage Door

An updated Limit Switch feature now offers different switch options to accommodate all appliance garage door types, including traditional cabinet doors, pocket door setups, and more. The newly designed Limit Switch now offers two functions to choose from:

Power Off When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is ideal for traditional cabinet doors, where closing the door depresses the switch to cut power safely.Power On When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is perfect for pocket doors, where the door being pushed back upon opening activates the switch, turning the power on.

Customizable Connectivity

The flexibility of Docking Drawer’s solutions also allows for connecting multiple limit switches to a single safety outlet or vice versa, offering customization options to adapt to the unique demands of any project.

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality,” states Scott Dickey, founder of Docking Drawer. “Our Safety Interlock Outlets represent the culmination of our dedication to innovation and empowering homeowners and professionals with safer, more organized spaces—even beyond the kitchen and bathroom.”

Don’t miss the opportunity to experience the future of kitchen safety. Visit Docking Drawer at KBIS 2025 in Las Vegas this February to see firsthand how their Safety Interlock Outlets are revolutionizing appliance garage safety.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Over 85 governments from key mineral-producing and consumer nations, including 16 countries from the leading G20 economies, and 50 ministers and 13 vice ministers – have confirmed they will join the 2025 FMF Ministerial Roundtable on January 14, 2025.

The Ministerial Roundtable, a multi-stakeholder, government-led initiative, is the traditional opener of FMF, spurring international action to increase investment in mineral supply and build capacity in the Super Region of Africa, Western and Central Asia, and other supply regions. It is set to be the largest and most senior gathering of mineral resources officials in the world

Discussion will cover progress made over the past year on the three Ministerial Roundtable initiatives:

Development of an International Critical Minerals FrameworkEstablishment of Centers of Excellence to build capacity in sustainability (Morocco), talent development (South Africa), and technology innovation (Saudi Arabia).Advancements in Certification Systems to ensure responsible mineral sourcing.

His Excellency Khalid Al-Mudaifer, the Vice-Minister for Mining Affairs of Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, emphasizes that, “The meeting is an important step towards achieving sustainable development in the minerals sector globally. It is an ideal platform for delivering solutions, developing legislation on best practices in the field of sustainable mining, and exploring ways to invest in mining projects to achieve economic and social development in producing countries.”

Joining him are high-profile leaders, including ministers from supplier and financing like Brazil, South Africa, DRC, India, Egypt, Italy, Nigeria, Qatar, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Malaysia, Thailand, Morocco, Indonesia, France, USA and the United Kingdom, discussing opportunities for global cooperation.

“This year, discussions will seek to enhance collaboration between governments, industry, and communities to drive more investment in minerals, and development through value addition in supplier countries. We want to support the pressing need for sustainable mining practices, resilient supply chains, and value-driven partnerships in the minerals industry.”

Importantly, the outcomes of the Ministerial Roundtable are not confined to the event itself but form an ongoing, year-round program. Regional Coordination Groups will continue to drive the implementation of key initiatives.

“FMF is emerging as the largest global hub for minerals collaboration and action – no other platform brings together government ministers and senior industry leaders at this scale.” Al-Mudaifer concluded.
