TEL-AVIV, Israel, June 24 /PRNewswire/ — Waterfall Security Solutions(R)
Ltd., the leading provider of secure unidirectional connectivity for Process
Control Systems, Industrial Networks, SCADA systems, Remote Monitoring and
Segregated Networks announced today a new partnership agreement with
OSIsoft(R), the global leader in software infrastructure for real-time
information and performance management. The agreement follows successful
installations of the Waterfall SCADA Monitoring Enabler for OSIsoft PI(TM) at
several major utilities worldwide.

Waterfall’s patent pending solutions enable effective, hardware-enforced
network segregation (“air gapping”) and provide top-level and impenetrable
security for operational and critical industrial networks. Waterfall’s SCADA
Monitoring Enabler (WF-SME(TM)) for OSIsoft PI is a high performance solution
for replicating, in real-time and with high-throughput, PI information, from
within secure SCADA networks and industrial control environments, to a
replica PI server residing on corporate, public or 3rd party networks. This
makes the PI data fully available to external users, without exposing the
critical and industrial networks, in any way, to external hacking and
cyber-terror threats. The WF-SME for OSIsoft PI has already been successfully
deployed at critical utilities in North America, Europe and Israel. The
WF-SME is a powerful and robust solution for achieving NERC-CIP, CFATS and
other compliance and cyber-security regulations.

“Waterfall Security Solutions Ltd. is proud to become an official OSIsoft
partner” said Lior Frenkel, Co-Founder and CEO of Waterfall Security
Solutions, “The PI platform is the world leading brand name in real-time
information management for utilities and critical infrastructures. Our
solutions, providing secure connectivity for critical industrial networks,
provide PI users with cyber security protection which is required by almost
all regulations and state-of-the-art security practices. “
