Strategic Partnership Between Siemens and Senkron Digital in OT Cybersecurity

At a time when digitalization is redefining industrial systems, cybersecurity has become a decisive factor for the sustainability of critical infrastructure. In this evolving landscape, Siemens and Senkron Digital have signed a strategic cooperation agreement in the field of Operational Technology (OT) cybersecurity.

Under the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), Siemens and Senkron Digital aim to create value together by combining their complementary expertise in OT cybersecurity. The partnership establishes a framework for collaboration focused on strengthening the cyber resilience of industrial systems, supporting operational continuity, and delivering integrated solutions that address evolving customer needs.

A Holistic Approach to OT Cybersecurity

The collaboration is built on a comprehensive security approach designed to enhance the resilience of industrial facilities, energy infrastructure, and critical operations against cyber threats. Within this framework, the partners will jointly address customer needs emerging around Security Operations Centers (SOC), integrate advanced cybersecurity products and services in OT security solutions, and develop joint working models to address improvement areas identified through cybersecurity assessments.

Supported by joint marketing and awareness initiatives in the OT cybersecurity domain, this structure presents a long-term and sustainable security perspective that shapes the future of secure industrial systems.

A Shared Vision for Industrial Resilience

Siemens’ globally developed advanced cybersecurity technologies combined with SenkronDigital’s digital expertise in energy and industrial systems create a powerful synergy that positions security in OT environments as a strategic enabler of operational continuity, efficiency, and sustainability.

This strategic collaboration will enable industrial enterprises to progress securely and at scale in their digital transformation journeys while adopting a proactive and future-ready security approach to address the rapidly evolving threat landscape.

By supporting the adoption of innovative OT cybersecurity practices, this partnership positions itself among the collaborations shaping the future of industrial cybersecurity both in Türkiye and international markets.

“Resilient and Sustainable Industry Through OT Cybersecurity”

Emphasizing that security acts as a strategic enabler in industrial transformation, Senkron Digital Managing Director Ali İnal said:

“Türkiye is undergoing a powerful transformation that redefines its energy and industrial infrastructure through advanced technologies, placing digitalization at the center of growth, competitiveness, and sustainable development. Today, industrial systems form the backbone of a wide range of impacts from energy supply security and production efficiency to climate goals and global competitiveness.

Ensuring that this transformation progresses with high standards, uninterrupted operations, and predictability requires OT cybersecurity to be positioned as an indispensable pillar of the industrial ecosystem.

At Senkron Digital, we approach OT cybersecurity as a comprehensive value domain that strengthens operational continuity, supports data-driven decision-making, and enhances industrial resilience. Our strategic collaboration with Siemens provides a strong framework that advances the digital transformation of industrial facilities and critical infrastructure along the axes of security, scalability, and sustainability.

Through this partnership, we aim to develop integrated solutions that provide end-to-end visibility in OT environments, proactively manage risks, and support operational excellence. We believe that strong collaborations within this ecosystem from energy generation to digital infrastructure will position Türkiye as a regional reference hub in industrial cybersecurity.

This step represents a powerful and lasting value proposition that contributes to Türkiye’s long-term energy and industrial vision while helping build the resilient and sustainable industry of the future today.”

Kerim Oal, General Manager of Digital Industries at Siemens Türkiye, said:

“As digitalization accelerates across the industrial world, the security of operational technology environments has become more critical than ever. At Siemens Türkiye, we go beyond traditional approaches to OT security by adopting a multi-layered protection model based on the ‘Defense in Depth’ principle. The Memorandum of Understanding we are signing with Senkron Digital represents a strategic step toward implementing this vision in the field.

Through this collaboration, we aim to strengthen OT-specific SOC services by combining centralized log management and advanced SIEM analytics, enabling critical infrastructure operators to respond to threats much faster and more effectively. At the same time, we will support compliance with both local and global regulatory requirements, including the regulations of the Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EPDK) and the EU’s NIS2 Directive, while significantly enhancing our customers’ operational sustainability.

At Siemens, we combine our decades of industrial expertise and cybersecurity experience with innovative solutions such as Zero Trust architecture, Vilocify, and SINEC Security to deliver strong and comprehensive added value to our customers. We believe this collaboration will further elevate the level of cybersecurity across Türkiye’s critical infrastructure and industries, strengthening operational resilience through OT SOC services that provide 24/7 monitoring, incident management, and threat intelligence.”
