Neeve Introduces OT SASE to Energy Industry

At the Inductive Automation Ignition Oil & Gas Collective in San Antonio, Neeve’s William Behn addressed a pivotal bottleneck facing today’s critical energy operations: while modern SCADA platforms like Ignition have leaped into the future with agile architectures and powerful data models, underlying OT networking and cybersecurity layers remain tethered to outdated, rigid paradigms. Complex cellular setups, vulnerable jump boxes, and traditional VPNs continue to expose critical field assets while burdening operational teams with fragile point-to-point connections.

To solve this divide, Neeve highlighted how an OT SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) framework brings zero-trust principles directly to distributed industrial infrastructure. By replacing legacy remote access with an identity-driven, cloud-managed edge fabric, operators can instantly simplify multi-site connectivity, enforce granular least-privilege policies, and modernize their Ignition environments without introducing cybersecurity friction.
