Washington DC – October 29, 2025 – Corsha, the pioneer of the Machine Identity Provider (mIDP) platform, has partnered with Dragos Inc., the global leader in OT cybersecurity, to revolutionize how industrial and operational systems are secured. This collaboration merges Corsha’s continuous machine-identity authentication with Dragos’s industrial-grade threat detection, giving organizations unified visibility, trust, and control over every machine connection.
As operational environments evolve and Zero Trust principles extend into OT, this partnership provides the missing link: real-time identity verification for every machine and every action. The integration eliminates blind spots in machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, blocks lateral movement, and ensures that all industrial connections are authenticated and authorized before data ever flows.
Key Highlights
- Identity-Driven Zero Trust for OT - The integration unifies Corsha’s dynamic machine-identity management with Dragos’s asset discovery and threat detection, delivering continuous authentication and policy-based microsegmentation across critical networks.
- Prevent Unauthorized Machine Activity - Corsha enforces identity-based access at the machine level, while Dragos continuously monitors for anomalous or malicious communications, helping security teams stop ransomware and supply-chain attacks before they propagate.
- Accelerated Incident Response - Machine-identity context enriches Dragos’s high-fidelity detections, giving analysts actionable intelligence to isolate compromised assets and restore operations faster.
- Compliance and SANS Alignment - The joint solution helps organizations meet SANS Five ICS Critical Controls and other Zero Trust frameworks by continuously verifying machine-to-machine communications, enforcing defensible network segmentation, and enabling auditable identity governance
Strategic Impact
For industrial enterprises, manufacturing, public-sector agencies, and critical-infrastructure operators, Corsha + Dragos represents a new frontier of machine-level visibility and trust. Together, they bridge IT and OT security by bringing cryptographic identity, continuous authentication, and behavioral enforcement into environments traditionally secured by perimeter defenses alone.
