FoxGuard Solutions helps critical infrastructure entities mitigate cyber security risks and address related industrial control system (ICS) regulatory requirements. Through its unique history, FoxGuard is well versed in the design, manufacture, and lifecycle management of Windows® based HMIs and control devices, which enables its team to offer relevant, field-ready products and services. Its flagship offerings, DisPatch and DisPatch ProNet security updates, are validated solutions that greatly reduce the burden of patch management. FoxGuard also provides a suite of network devices and onsite services that work together to create a strong security posture. All solutions are tested in a secure lab environment to ensure safe and smooth deployments.
Located in Christiansburg, VA, FoxGuard was formed in 2009 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of CCS-Inc. to serve the cyber security needs of America’s critical infrastructure. FoxGuard grew out of the increasingly urgent need some of CCS-Inc.’s customers faced with regard to protecting and updating control system devices. Utilizing its experience providing security solutions to the power industry, CCS decided to create a subsidiary to hone in on these issues.
Now partnering with OEM control system vendors and end users, FoxGuard continues to improve the processes surrounding its patch management delivery model and educate end users about the importance of timely, validated security update application. Team members are involved in working groups and committees that will help steer the future of critical infrastructure cyber security and compliance. Through its deployments and industry involvement, FoxGuard advocates proactive, layered security measures to defend against targeted ICS threats.
