Challenge
Utilities are struggling to merge information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) applications and management without disrupting the cybersecurity, reliability, and performance of mission-critical protection and control applications.
Benefits
Thanks to the efforts of SEL and Juniper, utilities have a more integrated management platform for converged networks. Working together, SEL and Juniper have developed a true end-to-end unified circuit orchestration platform that enables more efficient and secure management of IT/OT networks.
Solution
SEL and Juniper Networks, trusted names in the converging realms of OT and IT, are developing a solution that allows true end-to-end network visibility, cybersecurity management, and control while maintaining the microsecond precision of critical control applications.
