Shield brings prevention-first network security to critical infrastructure environments. Shield blocks malicious traffic at the network layer using the Global Threat Engine and 8.5 billion IP and DNS combinations refined since 2001.
Shield blocks known-bad traffic at the network edge against 8.5 billion IP and DNS combinations. No tuning. No alert fatigue. No downtime to deploy. Built for SLED, OT, healthcare, utilities, and the regulated environments that cannot afford either a breach or a service interruption.

Public sector and critical infrastructure security teams carry the same threat load as the largest enterprises, with a fraction of the headcount. The tools that work for big-budget SOC teams generate alerts that no one has time to read. Shield is built for the opposite reality.
You cannot afford a tool that requires a full-time tuning specialist, a dedicated SOC analyst, or a six-month deployment project. You need protection that runs itself.
Plant lines, hospital systems, water treatment, traffic systems, public services. None of these can come offline for a security tool to learn what normal looks like. Shield blocks on day one without baseline learning.
CMMC, NIST 800-171, HIPAA Security Rule, state procurement standards. Shield supports the network monitoring and access control requirements you need to evidence, with logs your auditor can pull.
Each environment has its own constraints, compliance frameworks, and procurement vehicles. The technology is the same. The framing is built for the buyer.
City IT, county security, school districts, and higher education. Shield blocks ransomware command-and-control traffic and reconnaissance scans without the SOC headcount you do not have.
SLED solutions →Plant networks, industrial control systems, and unmanaged devices. Shield runs in observe-only mode first so you see what is happening before anything blocks.
OT solutions →Hospitals, clinics, regional health systems. Shield supports HIPAA Security Rule network monitoring requirements and stops the outbound traffic patterns that signal ransomware staging.
Healthcare solutions →Water, power, gas, and regional utility cooperatives. Shield gives you visibility into what is on your network and blocks the inbound recon that precedes targeted attacks.
Utility solutions →City and county government, public services, and regional authorities. Shield deploys in hours, not months, and is sized for procurement realities and public-sector budgets.
Municipal solutions →Defense contractors, critical infrastructure suppliers, and regulated enterprises that inherit federal compliance requirements through their customers.
Compliance mapping →Most enterprise security tools assume budget, staff, and a tolerance for tuning. Public sector and critical infrastructure buyers have none of those. Shield is built around that constraint.
We support the buying motion you already use. If you have a preferred reseller, integrator, or contract vehicle, we will route through that partner. If you want to talk directly first, that is fine too.
Talk to our team, scope a proof of value, document success criteria, and sign through your standard procurement process.
Request a POVIf you already work with a reseller, integrator, or MSSP, we will collaborate with them on scoping, pricing, and deployment. Channel-led when you need it.
Find a partner →Some buyers want to see how Shield maps to CMMC, NIST 800-171, and HIPAA requirements before anything else. Start there and move into evaluation when ready.
See compliance mapping →Public sector and regulated buyers cannot afford to bet on an unproven vendor. Here is what we bring to the table when your CIO, your board, or your auditor asks.
Whether you are evaluating directly, working through a partner, or starting with a compliance conversation, we will meet you where you are.
