Honeywell has completed its acquisition of Nextnine, a privately held provider of industrial cybersecurity solutions. The business will be integrated into Honeywell’s Industrial Cyber Security group and will strengthen Honeywell’s capability to offer multi-vendor, multi-site secure remote access, monitoring and support to protect industrial-control
systems and critical infrastructure against a growing threat of cyber-attacks.
“The addition of Nextnine’s technologies and talented employees enhances Honeywell’s position to deliver enterprise-wide, end-to-end industrial cyber security solutions that reduce cyber security risks, improve reliability, increase productivity and lower cost of operations to our combined customer base,” said Jeff Zindel, vice president and general manager of Honeywell’s Industrial Cybersecurity business unit.
“Nextnine is joining a recognized global leader in industrial cybersecurity,” said Shmulik Aran, CEO of Nextnine. “We will now be able to leverage Honeywell’s reach, network and managed security services offerings to grow the impact of our technology and to help more customers in a more holistic way.”
