# Manufacturing Security

_Last updated: 2025-10-21_

Morphisec provides prevention-first security for manufacturers vulnerable to intellectual property theft and ransomware attacks. The solution uses Adaptive Exposure Management and Automated Moving Target Defense to harden security posture, protect sensitive data, and prevent costly damage by stopping attacks before they occur.

## The threat landscape

Threat actors target manufacturers for valuable intellectual property that can be sold at high prices. Manufacturing firms often rely on automated systems, connected devices, and legacy technology without ongoing security patches, which threat actors leverage to gain easy access.

## Morphisec's approach

Morphisec protects manufacturing operations through three primary mechanisms:

**Harden your security posture**
Adaptive Exposure Management, powered by Automated Moving Target Defense, zeroes in on security weaknesses and continuously adjusts to address new and evasive threats.

**Protect sensitive data**
Morphisec protects intellectual property and operational technology by continuously changing the attack surface to pre-emptively reduce facility exposure. The solution proactively prevents attacks at multiple phases, ensuring uninterrupted operations.

**Prevent costly damage**
Morphisec ensures availability and reliability of critical operational systems and infrastructure by strengthening anti-ransomware stance and stopping attacks before they do damage.

## Key benefits

| Benefit | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| Assurance | Users and operational technology are protected even when other safeguards fail. |
| Operational readiness | Eliminates attack dwell time and recovery efforts through proactive prevention, enhancing team efficiency. |
| Business continuity | Preventatively stops advanced threats to ensure availability of services and keep manufacturing systems online. |
| Improved cybersecurity posture | Boosts audit scores and helps achieve compliance, reducing cyber insurance premiums. |
| Enhanced visibility | Greater insight into network activities and potential vulnerabilities prevents disruptions and protects proprietary information. |
| Seamless integration | Ultra-lightweight agent secures operational technology and industrial control systems. |

## Fortune 500 case study

A Fortune 500 manufacturer deployed Morphisec across 18,000+ endpoints. The USA-based company generates $5B+ USD in annual revenue and uses Morphisec to keep attackers guessing against advanced threats.

## Customer testimonials

**Yaskawa Motoman ($50–250M USD revenue)**

A Senior IT Architect stated: "I have absolutely without a doubt seen ROI. It's the cost savings compared to other products, the performance of the product, and the amount of time saved by my team on issues that were happening before we installed Morphisec."

**VP of IT at $350M Manufacturer (in-memory attack prevention)**

"Morphisec stops in-memory attacks dead. It works. We had a ransomware attack on one of our small acquisitions and it wasn't successful. We tested those same attacks afterward using Morphisec, and it stopped it cold."

**CIO at Manufacturer with 10,000+ employees (cost comparison)**

"Dollars spent doesn't correlate to security value. We spent a lot of money on our MDR provider, and yet we still were breached and had to do a lot of work ourselves. After bringing on Morphisec, we were able to protect twice the endpoints at half the cost of our MDR platform."

**Manager, IT Security & Risk Management at $50–250M USD Manufacturer**

"I breathe much easier knowing that attacks from ransomware, zero-days, and other exploits are stopped, without any interaction from users or admins. Whenever we have questions or some 'quirk' comes up, the support team works with you until it is resolved. The agents are also very easy to deploy and update."

**VP of IT at $350M Manufacturer (complementary security layer)**

"We have SentinelOne and when we purchased Morphisec we wanted to have a complementary security layer because a lot of attackers target EDRs. EDR is signature-based, whereas the beauty of Morphisec is that it is in-memory and it's behavior-based. We value having Morphisec as an independent product to check and balance in case SentinelOne is compromised."

**IT Manager at $50–250M USD Manufacturer**

"Morphisec is enhanced security with uncompromised convenience. My experience with Morphisec for the last more than 3 years was excellent. Our security has become stronger. We can rely on Morphisec."
