Case Study: Nesher Israel Cement achieves continuous SCADA protection and full OT visibility with Tenable Networks

Nesher Cement Secures Complex SCADA Environment from Cyber Threats

Nesher Israel Cement Enterprises, Israel’s largest cement producer (about 60% market share, 6 million tons/year), runs 24/7 high-temperature furnaces and a complex SCADA/ICS environment where safety and continuous production are critical. Facing growing sophisticated cyber threats, the company lacked full visibility into its industrial controllers and needed real-time, SOC-ready data to quickly detect and remediate threats without disrupting operations.

Nesher deployed Tenable.ot, combining passive monitoring with patented active querying, automated asset inventory, contextual real-time alerts, and policy-based detection. The solution gave 24/7 unified visibility and accurate alerts across its SCADA environment, accelerated incident response with intuitive visualizations, reduced false positives, and delivered a safer, always-on production environment and greater operational confidence.
