Honored to be named “Hot Company Secure Remote Access” at the Global InfoSec Awards during #RSAC 2026. As industrial organizations scale remote access across plants, vendors, and distributed operations, the need for purpose-built SRA has never been greater. “We’re proud to be recognized as the industry’s best remote access platform by Cyber Defense Magazine through its Global InfoSec Awards. As remote access becomes essential to industrial operations, organizations need security purpose-built for OT—not retrofitted from IT. This recognition reflects our focus on reducing risk while enabling secure, efficient operations across critical infrastructure.” — Ethan Schmertzler, Co-CEO, Dispel Proud of the team and grateful to our customers and partners driving this forward. 🔗 Learn more: https://hubs.li/Q047XThh0 #OTSecurity #Cybersecurity #ZeroTrust #CriticalInfrastructure #RSAC #InfoSec RSAC

One stat stands out: Implementing secure remote access can reduce overall cyber risk by more than 12%. That’s not theoretical. That’s measurable impact. It comes from: • Eliminating persistent pathways • Enforcing least privilege • Logging and recording every session • Designing for OT, not IT convenience The SANS Institute whitepaper lays out the architecture behind it.

Thanks to our partners Nozomi Networks and Cyderes, our customers, and everyone who connected with us at CS4CA Houston this week. It’s always great to spend time with the OT security community.
CS4CA Houston was a great one. 🚀 It was fantastic connecting with so many leaders across the OT and critical infrastructure security community. A few highlights: 💥 Great conversations at the Dispel booth about how Zero Trust Secure Remote Access can simplify secure connectivity for IT and OT teams while reducing operational friction. 💥 Thank you to the customers who joined Ethan Schmertzler for our customer breakfast — always valuable to exchange ideas with practitioners tackling these challenges every day. 💥 We wrapped it up with a great customer happy hour sponsored by Dispel, Nozomi, and Cyderes. Events like this remind me how strong and collaborative the ICS/OT security community really is. Looking forward to continuing the conversations.

The 2026 Gartner® Market Guide shows CPS secure remote access is evolving to meet operational demands, not just security requirements. • Legacy access complexity • Undocumented “shadow access” • Misalignment with safety-critical operations These gaps surface as operational friction over time. That’s why the market is moving toward purpose-built CPS secure remote access platforms. 👉 See what this shift looks like in practice: https://hubs.li/Q046sqcb0 #Gartner #OTSecurity #CPS #SecureRemoteAccess #CriticalInfrastructure

Great to see the OT community together at CS4CA Houston. If you're here for Day 2, stop by and connect with the Dispel team.
Always great to be in Houston for CS4CA. Make sure you swing by the booth to grab some fun Dispel socks and we can show the latest and greatest on Dispel. If attending the conference you can also register for the Wednesday HH with Dispel, Nozomi and Cyderes. https://lnkd.in/eJqYiHQc Jordan Dugosh Ethan Schmertzler Mark Lennon #cs4ca #dispel

𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲 ��� 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞. The longer it takes to deploy security, the longer attackers have to adapt. In this clip, Dispel Co-CEO Ian Schmertzler explains why deployment speed is one of the most overlooked indicators of cyber readiness — especially across multi-site OT environments. 🔗 Explore the Dispel Zero Trust Engine: https://hubs.li/Q0469w7B0 #OTSecurity #manufacturing #waterutilities #electricutilities #SecureRemoteAccess
