Honeywell OT Cybersecurity opens first Security Operations Centre in Europe - in Bucharest

Honeywell announced in December the launch of its first security operations centre (SOC) in Europe, based in Romania. The SOC focuses on operational technology (OT) cyber threat detection, prevention and management in industrial environments and critical infrastructure. It is staffed by OT cybersecurity experts to serve Honeywell’s customers across the globe in meeting their growing needs for cybersecurity solutions.

A growing number of industrial organisations may not have the appropriate in-house cybersecurity expertise or may have limited funding to grow their security teams. Our OT managed security service solutions provide companies with 24/7 access to OT cybersecurity analytics and experts with highly specialized and diverse cybersecurity skills without the need to significantly grow an internal team of experts.

“We are excited about opening our new centre in Bucharest because of the talent, internet infrastructure and support from local governmental partners,” said Ronald Binkofski, Honeywell president for Central and Eastern Europe. “The centre recently received the ISO 20000-1 certification, demonstrating that our organisation has invested in the best people, processes and technology to deliver world-class services for cybersecurity monitoring and incident response.”
