When an old pump breaks down and a warning light flashes red in a control room, it may not seem dramatic at first—but it can quickly escalate. Major outages often originate from poorly maintained digital systems: an outdated controller, a vulnerable protocol, or a configuration left untouched for years.
Critical supply systems across Europe are increasingly reliant on devices that are outdated and hard to maintain. Even minor faults can quickly snowball into major disruptions, with potentially devastating consequences for society.
This is where Clearsight comes in. The project is developing an intelligent monitoring system for OT (Operational Technology) networks, which are often classified as critical infrastructure. The system continuously checks equipment security, detects suspicious behavior, and alerts the responsible teams when intervention is needed.
The goal is to give companies and authorities an early, clear overview of their security posture. The technology is also being designed to withstand the ultimate test: deployment in Ukraine during wartime conditions.
