New Cyber Appointment for SolutionsPT

Cheadle-based industrial IT solutions specialist SolutionsPT has bolstered its cyber security offering with the appointment of cyber security and network expert, Lee Carter.

Previously a Principal Cyber Security Engineer at systems integrator, Capula, Lee has extensive experience of the security requirements of specialist environments such as power generation, utilities and nuclear. In his new role as Industrial Network and Cyber Security Product Manager Lee will provide consultancy and technical direction to SolutionsPT’s varied client base, carefully monitoring trends in the cyber security space to ensure SolutionsPT’s cyber security offering remains at the cutting edge.

As part of its focus on the growing cyber security market, SolutionsPT has recently added Claroty, the leader in Operational Technology Cyber Security, to its product suite.

Founded and expressly built for OT networks, Claroty delivers Continuous Threat Detection (CTD), providing visibility and vulnerability monitoring, as well as leveraging behavioural analysis techniques to provide on-going real-time threat detection. Users can proactively manage remote access and get an enterprise wide view of their networks, bringing multiple sites or plant locations into one single operations view.

Lee Carter, Industrial Network and Cyber Security Product Manager, said: “I was attracted to the role at SolutionsPT because it has a suite of leading edge products such as Claroty that are used by some of the most well-known companies around the world and  – crucially  – it is capable of integrating those product sets to ensure that security, backup, monitoring and availability products all operate in total harmony.”
