Xona, the leading provider of secure access for critical infrastructure, today announced a strategic partnership with Forescout Technologies, a global cybersecurity leader. The integration between the Xona Platform and the Forescout 4D Platform™ will give industrial and critical infrastructure operators secure, policy-enforced access to operational systems, backed by continuous network visibility and automated enforcement.
As threats to industrial control systems intensify and compliance requirements become more demanding, the integration of Forescout’s continuous device visibility, intelligence, and control with Xona’s secure remote access capabilities enables operators to modernize security without compromising uptime, safety, or regulatory posture. This partnership ensures that every user and device interaction is authenticated, authorized, and audited—delivering secure, compliant, and uninterrupted operations across critical infrastructure.
Better Together: Unified Access, Visibility, and Control
The best of breed platforms combine the unique strengths of both organizations:
- Zero-Trust Access with Reduced Operational Complexity: Xona delivers secure, browser-based access to critical systems without requiring VPNs, clients, or network tunnels. When paired with Forescout’s real-time asset discovery, security teams can dynamically identify and import assets to configure identity-level controls. This ensures users only access authorized assets and systems, when they’re authorized to access them.
- Context-Aware Policy Enforcement: Forescout’s dynamic risk scoring and segmentation logic automatically influence access permissions and session behavior inside Xona. High-risk assets can be isolated, and user access can be denied or revoked in real time, preventing lateral movement and enforcing least privilege access across the OT environment.
- Built-In Compliance and Session Auditing: Xona’s high-fidelity session recording, file transfer governance, and policy-based controls are now enriched with live network telemetry from Forescout, simplifying audit prep for standards like NERC CIP, IEC 62443, TSA SD2, and OTCC-1. Every session is visible, controlled, and accounted for.
- Secure Vendor and Third-Party Access Without Exposure: Together, Xona and Forescout eliminate the traditional blind spots around remote access. Contractors, OEMs, and internal users can gain time-limited access with full oversight, without ever exposing underlying network layers or requiring standing credentials.
This integration is purpose-built to support energy and utilities, oil and gas, water, transportation and logistics, and healthcare organizations to drive operational resilience.
