SCADAfence

What SCADAfence does

SCADAfence is an Israeli operational technology (OT) and industrial control system (ICS) cybersecurity company founded in 2014, headquartered in Tel Aviv. The company built a passive network-monitoring platform that provides visibility into OT and IoT networks, automated asset discovery, and near real-time threat detection for industrial environments, underpinned by a patented granular adaptive baseline engine designed to minimize false positives in complex industrial networks. Its core technology targets critical infrastructure operators — energy grids, utilities, oil and gas, refining, water, and manufacturing — where attacks on industrial sectors rose 140% in 2022.

In July 2023, Honeywell International Inc. acquired SCADAfence to strengthen its OT and industrial cybersecurity software portfolio. Post-acquisition, the product has been repositioned as Honeywell Cyber Insights, an on-premises OT cybersecurity solution that integrates with the Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity+ Cyber Watch platform for multi-site governance and compliance monitoring. Distribution runs through Honeywell's global enterprise field sales organization, selling quote-based annual subscriptions bundled with professional deployment services to enterprise customers across Honeywell's industrial verticals.

Prior to acquisition, SCADAfence raised approximately $39.5M across six rounds from 2015 to 2023, with strategic investors including JVP, Global Brain, Rapid7, Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu Ventures, and Prosegur. The platform has been recognized in third-party rankings including Cyber Magazine's Top 10 OT Security Solutions (2025) and ABI Research's profile of leading ICS cybersecurity companies. Revenue is not separately disclosed as the entity operates as a subsidiary within Honeywell's Process Automation segment.
