About BlastShield
BlastShield is an OT cybersecurity product suite for protecting critical infrastructure like ICS and SCADA systems.
BlastShield by BlastWave is a cybersecurity suite designed to protect Operational Technology (OT), ICS, and SCADA environments from cyberattacks. It employs a zero-trust, software-defined perimeter (SDP) model to secure critical infrastructure. Key capabilities include network cloaking to make assets invisible to attackers, phishing-resistant secure remote access with passwordless MFA, and micro-segmentation to prevent lateral movement. The platform is aimed at industries such as oil and gas, manufacturing, government, and energy. It supports Windows, Mac, and Linux clients. While pricing is not publicly available, BlastWave offers a free trial and personalized demos. Support is available through a dedicated support portal with documentation.
