Case Study: Lillehammer Municipality improves OT remote access security with Cyolo

Lillehammer Municipality secures 80 pumping stations with Cyolo in 2 hours of training

Lillehammer Municipality's Water and Wastewater Department faced a significant security challenge with its outdated VPN-based remote access solution, which relied on a single password and no longer met modern security or emerging regulatory requirements like NIS2. To protect its approximately 80 operational facilities from cyberattacks, the municipality partnered with vendor Cyolo to implement its secure remote access solution, seeking a future-ready alternative that included mandatory two-factor authentication.

The solution from Cyolo was implemented with the help of partner Last Mile, featuring a decentralized, zero-trust architecture that kept all data within the municipality's network. The results included significantly improved security with two-factor authentication, full visibility through new logging functions, and seamless integration with existing systems. The Cyolo solution provided a non-disruptive deployment, a positive user experience, and ensured compliance with key regulations, ultimately giving the team greater control and peace of mind in their daily operations.
