Censys and Rilian Technologies have announced a strategic partnership to improve cyber defense and critical infrastructure security across the Middle East, according to a press release.

The collaboration expands access to Censys' Internet and industrial control system (ICS/OT) intelligence for government and commercial organizations in the region. Censys provides global security teams with detailed intelligence on Internet-facing assets, including support for 26 protocols, 68 vendors, and 226 ICS fingerprints to identify and monitor industrial systems.
