Naval Dome

What Naval Dome does

Naval Dome is an Israel-based OT (Operational Technology) cybersecurity company founded in 2016 that builds endpoint protection software for mission-critical onboard systems in the maritime, offshore energy, and port sectors. The company's core technology is an "INSIDE-OUT" defense platform that protects each Human Machine Interface (HMI) individually rather than relying on perimeter-based firewalls, so that breaches are contained locally even if a single endpoint is compromised. The product suite includes the ND Secure Endpoint flagship system, the Port-Dome product for port infrastructure, and the TAS-1000 tiered line (Bronze, Silver, Gold) that maps to escalating levels of protection — from a self-install data-gathering agent at the low end to full DNV GL SL-4 cybersecurity with AI/ML lockdown enforcement and 24/7 global support at the top.

Naval Dome's differentiators include DNV GL type-approval at the highest SL-4 security level (achieved in February 2019), AI/ML-based anomaly detection for both known and zero-day threats, compatibility with legacy operating systems (Windows XP and above) and multi-OEM environments, and a "fit and forget" software agent that can be installed remotely without infrastructure upgrades. The company sells via annual SaaS subscriptions across three tiers and generates additional revenue from retrofit installation services, with the first reference deployment at the Port of Ashdod commencing in Q1 2020.

The company goes to market through direct enterprise sales and a layered channel: a classification society partnership with DNV GL for regulatory-grade credibility, an OEM integration license with Totem Plus that embeds its protection in marine automation and navigation products, and a strategic MOU with global ship manager Anglo-Eastern to reach large commercial fleets. Beyond its maritime core, Naval Dome has publicly positioned its platform for offshore rigs, and lists power grids, pipelines, and energy companies as additional addressable segments. The company operates from Ra'anana, Israel with a North American office in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Core offering

Naval Dome provides OT cyber defense software for maritime, port, and offshore energy operators. Its flagship ND Secure Endpoint and Port-Dome products use a proprietary 'Inside-Out' defense philosophy that protects each Human Machine Interface individually against internal and external cyber threats. Offerings are packaged as a tiered TAS-1000 subscription suite (Bronze, Silver, Gold) with the Gold tier delivering DNV GL SL-4 certified, AI/ML-enabled endpoint protection, secure remote access, and 24/7 Global Service Support.

Product overview

NavalDome offers a unified OT cyber defense platform called the 'Inside-Out' security platform for mission-critical onboard systems. The core product is the ND Secure Endpoint system, complemented by Port-Dome for port infrastructure protection. The product portfolio follows the TAS-1000 tiered model with Bronze (self-install agent, data gathering), Silver (asset inventory, dashboard monitoring, SaaS), and Gold (full SL-4 cybersecurity with AI/ML lockdown enforcement) tiers. Additional capabilities include a Cyber Monitoring Dashboard for fleet-wide visibility. All products are designed to protect maritime, offshore, and port OT systems using an 'inside-out' philosophy where each endpoint is protected individually rather than relying on perimeter-based defenses.

Direct peers

• Nozomi Networks: OT and IoT security vendor offering asset visibility, anomaly detection, and threat response for industrial control systems. Highly comparable to Naval Dome's AI/ML anomaly detection capability, with broader multi-vertical exposure and stronger commercial scale.
• Bayshore Networks: OT cybersecurity vendor focused on industrial protocol-aware deep-packet inspection and policy enforcement. Comparable in OT network and endpoint protection but without Naval Dome's maritime certification pedigree and inside-out architecture.
• Dragos: ICS/OT cybersecurity specialist focused on industrial threat detection, incident response, and asset discovery. Closely comparable to Naval Dome's OT endpoint and network protection approach, with deeper incident response services and stronger North American presence.
• Claroty: Well-capitalized OT cybersecurity vendor providing asset discovery, vulnerability management, and network segmentation for industrial environments. Directly comparable to Naval Dome in OT/ICS protection, though Claroty serves all critical infrastructure verticals while Naval Dome specializes in maritime.

Regional players

• DNV GL (Cyber Services): Maritime classification society that awarded Naval Dome its SL-4 type approval and also offers its own cyber services and Veracity platform. A partial partner/competitor dynamic: DNV GL certifies Naval Dome's product but also competes in adjacent maritime cyber assurance and advisory services.
• ABS Group (Advanced Solutions / CyberSafety): Maritime classification society subsidiary offering CyberSafety risk management, incident response, and advisory services to shipowners. Competes with Naval Dome in maritime cyber risk advisory while representing a different GTM model (services vs. software platform).

Broad incumbents

• Siemens Energy (Cybersecurity): Major energy and industrial automation vendor that has integrated cybersecurity services for offshore, power, and pipeline OT environments. Competes with Naval Dome in offshore energy and pipeline segments via embedded controls and managed security services.
• Kongsberg Maritime (Cyber & Automation): Maritime technology incumbent providing integrated automation, navigation, and control systems with growing cybersecurity offerings for vessels and offshore. Comparable in target customer and embedded maritime position, with far greater scale and product breadth than Naval Dome.
• Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity: Industrial conglomerate offering cybersecurity solutions as part of its Forge platform, serving process industries and maritime operators. Comparable in OT security capability but bundled with broader industrial automation offerings, not specialized in naval OT.

Emerging players

• Astaara: Specialty insurer and risk management firm focused on cyber and operational risk in the maritime and offshore energy sectors. Adjacent to Naval Dome through shared maritime cyber customer base, though Astaara monetizes through insurance and advisory rather than software.
