What Seclab does

Seclab (legally SAS SECLAB FR) is a French B2B cybersecurity vendor founded in 2011 and headquartered in Pérols, near Montpellier, with a sales office in Courbevoie (Paris). The company focuses exclusively on operational technology (OT) cybersecurity for critical infrastructure operators across energy, transportation, defense and aerospace, chemicals, and healthcare, with named customers including EDF, Total Energies, PG&E, SNCF, Alstom, Thales, ArianeGroup, Westinghouse, Sanofi, Arkema, Saint Gobain, Danagas, and a French government ministry.

The company's core offering is the Seclab Xcore Platform, which combines three hardware-anchored products: Xplore (non-intrusive OT asset discovery and anomaly detection), Xchange (physical network isolation via patented Electronic AirGap technology that operates without software updates and delivers 2-4 millisecond latency versus 1+ minutes for data diodes), and Xport (USB port isolation to block physical-medium attacks on field maintenance interfaces). Solutions are ANSSI-certified, classified as dual-use goods subject to export controls, and positioned as compliant with NIS2, IEC 62443, and ANSSI frameworks for critical infrastructure.

Seclab monetizes through one-time hardware and software sales bundled with annual maintenance subscriptions (minimum one-year term, automatic renewal) and optional professional services for installation, configuration, and training. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales augmented by a tiered channel program covering IT resilience partners, OT cybersecurity specialists, and regional integrators and distributors, with a strategic technology partnership with Stormshield for rail signaling deployments. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and products are sold exclusively to professionals, consistent with a niche, high-touch enterprise sales motion rather than a volume SMB model.

Core offering

Seclab designs, manufactures, and sells hardware- and software-based OT cybersecurity products that physically isolate critical industrial networks from cyber threats. Its core offering, the Seclab Xcore Platform, combines electronic network isolation, USB port protection, and OT asset discovery/detection appliances (Xchange, Xport, Xplore) sold primarily to critical infrastructure operators across energy, transport, defense, nuclear, and healthcare. Revenue is generated through one-time product sales, recurring annual maintenance subscriptions, and professional installation/training services.

Product overview

Seclab offers a unified OT cybersecurity platform called the Xcore Platform, comprising three integrated products: Xplore (discovery and detection), Xchange (physical network isolation via Electronic AirGap technology), and Xport (USB isolation). The platform provides defense-in-depth protection for critical industrial infrastructure through hardware-based isolation solutions that require no software updates to maintain security levels.
