Gartner® has published its first Magic Quadrant™ for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Protection Platforms, recognizing Darktrace as the only Visionary in this category.

We believe The Visionary recognition highlights Darktrace’s AI-driven approach to securing industrial environments, where conventional security solutions struggle to keep pace with increasing cyber threats.

Darktrace / OT takes a fundamentally different approach to security. Rather than relying on external threat intelligence feeds or predefined attack patterns, Self-Learning AI continuously maps an organization’s unique operational landscape, identifying subtle deviations that signal cyber and operational risks. This enables real-time threat detection, proactive risk mitigation, and autonomous response, all without disrupting critical infrastructure. Our Key insights from the Report:

• Discover how Darktrace / OT’s Self-Learning AI enables real-time threat detection and risk-based mitigation without reliance on signatures or static models.
• Learn why organizations worldwide trust Darktrace to secure critical infrastructure while maintaining operational resilience.
• Explore how Darktrace / OT bridges IT and OT security, providing autonomous response and reducing the burden on security operations.
