Achilles Threat Intelligence Software

Wurldtech Achilles Threat Intelligence Software protects mission critical connected devices and systems against newly discovered attacks within days of discovery, and without the need to shut down operations to implement a patch. Wurldtech protection protocols and rulesets, coupled with industry-leading Intrusion Protection Systems (IPS / IDS) provide protection to mission critical control systems. 

Working with 8 of the world’s top 10 Automation suppliers plus key Operators (Asset Owners), Wurldtech discovers and analyzes new and ever-changing vulnerabilities. From those vulnerabilities Wurldtech develops the protection profiles and rulesets for commercial IPS/IDS.
