With Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity software, customers access a single dashboard to centralise security operations and asset security management for Honeywell and non-Honeywell assets. The software helps simplify, strengthen and scale security operations for asset-intensive businesses facing evolving cyber security threats. It can improve performance at a single site or across an enterprise by increasing cyber risk visibility while also decreasing cyber security management inefficiencies. This software is complemented by a broad portfolio of Honeywell cyber security professional services delivered by certified OT cyber security experts with extensive industry domain expertise in Honeywell and non-Honeywell environments.

Nozomi Networks' OT & IoT threat and anomaly detection complements the Honeywell Forge Cybersecurity portfolio to help customers identify and respond to cyber threats before they penetrate their OT network.
