Acquisition Strength Fend's recent acquisition by OPSWAT in 2024 positions it as part of a larger cybersecurity ecosystem focused on critical infrastructure protection, offering an opportunity to cross-sell integrated security solutions and leverage combined resources for expanded market reach.

Niche Expertise Specializing in advanced data diode technology and physically protecting connected equipment from cyberattacks, Fend appeals to organizations in energy, water, and manufacturing sectors seeking highly secure data communication solutions.

Sector Focus Fend services critical infrastructure industries with complex security needs, making it an ideal partner or solution provider for businesses in utility, government, and industrial sectors looking to enhance their cyber resilience.
