Operational Technology Meets Physical Security
Consider I.T. Solved.
Manufacturers cannot afford production interruptions, ransomware events, or facility security gaps.
Tight Technologies helps manufacturers create a secure operational environment across offices, production floors, warehouses, and remote locations.
Sound familiar?
What manufacturers tell us most.
01
Downtime stops production
An outage on the office network or plant floor costs real money by the hour.
02
Plant floor and office on one network
Machines, controllers and workstations need to be separated and protected.
03
Securing plants, yards and dock doors
Sites are large, busy and open at odd hours.
04
Customers asking about your security
Contracts and audits now include cybersecurity requirements.
How we help
One partner for the technology and the physical side, planned together.
01
Technology Services
Managed IT with 24/7 help desk, NOC and SOC. Responsive support with proactive monitoring, patching and security operations around the clock.
Network design and segmentation. Plant floor and office traffic kept apart, with reliable Wi-Fi across large sites.
Monitoring and tested backups. Reduce downtime on the systems production depends on.
Password and credential management. 1Password for your whole team, so shared logins give way to individual, auditable access.
Cybersecurity protection. Endpoint protection, email defense and security operations around the clock.
Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. Secure setup, with sensible permissions for shop-floor and office users.
Line-of-business and ERP support. We coordinate with your ERP, MES and quality-system vendors, and with the vendors who support your machines.
02
Physical Security
Video surveillance. Cameras for plants, yards, docks and parking, with footage available quickly.
Access control. Controlled entry for production areas, tool cribs, labs and offices.
Vehicle recognition and gates. Know which trucks and visitors are on site.
Environmental monitoring. Temperature, humidity and leak alerts for equipment rooms and sensitive materials.
Visitor management. Check-in and escorts for customers, auditors and vendors.
Where we focus
Keeping production running
Managed IT, monitoring, and tested backups that reduce downtime on the systems production depends on.
Compliance readiness
Support preparing for requirements such as CMMC, with documentation and controls organized.
Protecting facilities and people
Access control, cameras, and environmental sensors across one site or many.
Compliance conversations, made easier
Meet customer and contract requirements
Customers and agencies increasingly require manufacturers to show how they protect information. We help you answer and close gaps.
Ready-to-use policies and procedures. A policy library with the documents for the specific regulations that apply to you, kept up to date for you, with room for custom policies written for your organization.
Staff training tracking. A framework that records which employees have been trained on which policies, so you can show it when asked. It connects to Microsoft Entra ID or Active Directory, or accepts a manual CSV import.
NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC. For defense and federal supply chains, we help you understand the requirements and what your environment supports.
Customer security audits and questionnaires. Clear, consistent answers backed by records of your systems.
PCI DSS. Securing any card payments you accept.
NIST Cybersecurity Framework alignment. Organize safeguards around a recognized framework your customers understand.
Cyber insurance requirements. Help answering applications and renewals, and closing the gaps carriers find.
Tight Technologies provides technical and operational support. We are not a law firm or an auditor, and no vendor can make an organization compliant on its own. Rules that apply to you may include NIST SP 800-171, CMMC, PCI DSS, customer contract terms and your insurance carrier requirements; your counsel or auditor can confirm.
What working with us looks like
01
Assess
We walk the plant and review networks, accounts, vendors and site security.
02
Plan
A phased plan that protects production and meets customer requirements.
03
Implement
Changes scheduled around shifts and maintenance windows.
04
Run and review
24/7 monitoring and support, with regular reviews and records kept current.
Questions we hear
Can you work around production schedules?
Yes. We schedule changes around shifts and planned maintenance, and test before cutting over.
Do you provide policies and procedures, and track staff training?
Yes. Every client gets access to a current policy library covering the regulations that apply to them, and a framework that tracks which employees have been trained on each policy. Tracking connects to Microsoft Entra ID or Active Directory, or you can import staff by CSV.
Can policies be customized for our organization?
Yes. The policies stay current as requirements change, and we can add custom policies for the way your organization works.
Do you support plant floor systems?
We coordinate with your equipment and ERP vendors and secure the networks around them, without replacing your vendors.
Can you help with CMMC or NIST 800-171?
We help you understand the requirements and prepare. Your contracting officer, customer or assessor decides what satisfies them.
Who answers after hours?
Our help desk, network operations and security operations support runs 24/7.
