SSH Communications Security (SSH), a global leader in secure access solutions, announces that a new independent report from a leading analyst, Industrial Cyber, has recognized SSH’s PrivX OT and NQX products for their strong capabilities in Industrial Secure Remote Access (ISRA) and secure site-to-site connectivity.

Industrial Cyber emphasizes that ISRA has become a foundational security control for operational technology (OT) environments as remote connectivity becomes essential for maintenance, diagnostics, and emergency response.

Some key trends accelerating ISRA adoption include:

• increasing regulatory pressure through frameworks such as IEC 62443 and NIS2
• growing reliance on remote operations together with the need to better control third-party access
• the shift from perimeter-based security models toward Zero Trust approaches that enforce identity-first, continuously validated access.

SSH’s Solutions Recognized
Industrial Cyber identifies two SSH solutions as strong fits for modern OT security requirements in their Vendor Profile: SSH Communications Security (SSH) for OT security:

PrivX OT – A purpose-built ISRA solution offering passwordless, keyless, and just-in-time remote access for industrial environments. Features include microsegmentation, credentials management, protocol isolation for OT systems, and integrated privileged access management (PAM).

NQX – A quantum-safe, high-speed encryption solution enabling network encryption for site-to-site connectivity.

Analyst Quote:
“SSH’s approach allows organizations to strengthen access governance, prepare for emerging security requirements, and do so in a way that minimizes operational disruption — an alignment that is not easily achieved in the industrial space.” -Jonathon Gordon, Directing Analyst, Industrial Cyber

“I’m happy to see a leading research group like Industrial Cyber highlight our strengths in modern, identity-driven access controls and encryption for complex OT environments. Earlier this year, KuppingerCole Analysts ranked us as an Overall Leader in OT secure remote access. Now our strategic partnership with Leonardo S.p.A - a leader in Defense, Aerospace and Security – opens new market opportunities in numerous sectors, including railway, smart cities, transportation, ports & logistics, energy infrastructures, road infrastructures, airports, oil & gas, and nuclear,” states Rami Raulas, CEO of SSH.
