ColorTokens, a specialist in zero-trust microsegmentation, and Nozomi Networks, an expert in OT and IoT cyber security, are collaborating to deliver visibility and protection across operational environments.

They are seamlessly uniting Nozomi’s AI-powered threat monitoring with ColorTokens’ breach-ready microsegmentation.

Together, the two Californian companies now offer universally compatible integration across the Nozomi platform, including on-premises and cloud-based deployments, making it easier for organisations to secure complex industrial and healthcare environments without disrupting operations.

“Nozomi Networks’ ability to monitor assets and network traffic from the endpoint to the air, including monitoring at the process control level, is truly unique,” said Rajesh Khazanchi, CEO of ColorTokens. “Our integration brings those insights into a zero-trust model, giving customers a way to proactively contain threats while accommodating the unique nuances of OT environments.”

Nozomi’s flexible deployment model complements ColorTokens’ support for cloud-based and on-premises installations, enabling users to adopt zero-trust security regardless of their infrastructure maturity, system sensitivity or architecture. Moreover, Nozomi is widely recognised for AI-driven threat detection for OT, adding an intelligent layer of protection that accelerates response time and reduces risk in critical infrastructure sectors.

“We’re excited to expand our ecosystem with ColorTokens,” said Chet Namboodri, Nozomi Networks senior vice president. “This partnership gives organisations a powerful combination of deep OT visibility and microsegmentation enforcement, critical for preventing lateral movement and minimising the impact of today’s most sophisticated cyber attacks.”

This integration empowers users in sectors such as healthcare, manufacturing and energy to detect and isolate anomalies automatically in real time, and prevent lateral threat movement across hybrid OT and IoT networks. It allows flexible deployments to match operational needs from cloud to edge, and advances zero-trust security without compromising uptime.

ColorTokens (www.colortokens.com) is a provider of enterprise microsegmentation and breach containment, dedicated to making organisations breach ready. By preventing the lateral spread of ransomware and malware, it protects complex network infrastructures through its Xshield platform that visualises traffic between workloads, devices and users, enabling the enforcement of granular micro-perimeters, swift isolation of critical assets and effective breach response.

Nozomi Networks (www.nozominetworks.com) protects the critical infrastructure from cyber threats. Its platform combines network and endpoint visibility, threat detection, and AI-powered analysis for faster, more effective incident response.
