Industrial Defender and COMPUTER 2000 Bulgaria Partner for OT Cybersecurity Expansion

On July 8, 2026, Industrial Defender announced a distribution partnership with COMPUTER 2000 Bulgaria to enhance operational technology (OT) cybersecurity across Southeastern Europe. This partnership aims to provide critical infrastructure operators in Bulgaria, Macedonia, Kosovo, Croatia, Serbia, Albania, Romania, Hungary, Poland, and the Czech Republic with access to Industrial Defender's cybersecurity platform. The collaboration comes as the NIS2 transposition takes effect in the EU, imposing new compliance obligations on energy, water, and manufacturing sectors. The platform offers continuous OT asset visibility and automated compliance reporting, addressing a regional gap in OT-specific tools. Joint activities, including workshops and customer education events, are planned to facilitate the partnership. This initiative is crucial for operators needing to meet NIS2 requirements effectively.

Key Points: • Industrial Defender partners with COMPUTER 2000 Bulgaria to enhance OT cybersecurity. • The partnership targets critical infrastructure operators across nine Southeastern European countries. • NIS2 compliance requirements drive the need for OT-specific cybersecurity tools in the region.
