Secure third-party access to isolated OT systems – offline, compliant, just-in-time, without internet exposure or added cyber risk

How do you collaborate with third-party experts when systems must remain offline, internet exposure is prohibited, and traditional remote access solutions are not an option?

In critical infrastructure, collaboration is increasingly constrained by a fundamental dilemma:

• Systems must remain isolated – internet exposure is prohibited

• Cybersecurity and regulatory demands continue to increase

• 3rd pardy remote access is still required – quickly, securely and without operational delay

Traditional remote access models were never designed for this reality.

At Power Connect, BifrostConnect invites dialogue with organizations facing exactly this challenge.

We design and deliver secure, just-in-time access to isolated OT environments, enabling external specialists to support commissioning, operations, and incident response without introducing permanent connectivity or increasing cyber risk.

Typical collaboration scenarios

• Commissioning: How can suppliers and integrators support setup and handover without being physically on site?

• Ad hoc operations: How do you grant temporary access when something breaks – without opening the network?

• Incident response: How do you provide immediate access when cyber, forensic or operational experts must work on offline or comprimied infrastructure?

Built for regulated environments

BifrostConnect is designed for organizations operating under strict security and compliance requirements. The solution supports:

• Strong authentication, including multi-factor

• Full logging, traceability and session documentation

• Audit-ready evidence for compliance and post-incident review

If these challenges sound familiar, let’s compare experiences and explore whether there is a shared way forward.
