Case Study: The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey enhances OT cyber risk management with Claroty

The Path to Enhanced Cyber Risk Management – Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) and Claroty

The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey (PANYNJ), one of the largest transportation agencies in the U.S., manages a vast and complex critical infrastructure environment spanning airports, bridges, tunnels, seaports, rail, buses, and the World Trade Center. Facing growing OT cybersecurity risks, IT/OT convergence challenges, and new regulatory requirements, PANYNJ needed a purpose-built platform to improve visibility, threat detection, vulnerability management, and secure remote access. It selected Claroty after an extensive evaluation process.

Claroty implemented its OT cyber-physical systems platform across PANYNJ’s environment, with most critical systems onboarded in the first 8–10 months and the overall rollout nearly complete after two years. The solution now provides real-time threat detection and improved visibility into OT and IT-OT communications, helping PANYNJ identify suspicious behavior, malware, unauthorized access attempts, and operational anomalies. With Claroty, PANYNJ has strengthened its OT cyber risk management posture and improved the resilience and safety of essential services.
