We Ensure Secure Networking of IT and OT with Customized Infrastructure Solutions
The merging of automation technology and information technology is unstoppable. In highly automated systems, the convergence of IT and OT networks is becoming increasingly urgent. This trend underlines the growing importance of OT network security in the industrial environment.
Security projects must always take into account the perspectives of IT and OT, otherwise considerable production risks may arise. The different objectives of the two worlds - security for IT and availability for OT - as well as the essential security of people and the environment (safety) require a holistic approach.
At KRIKO, we combine expertise from the fields of IT, OT, automation and safety. Thanks to the diversity of perspectives and close cooperation between our teams, we guarantee the successful implementation of your IT/OT projects. We offer tailor-made solutions at network and software level, perfectly adapted to the requirements of your automation projects.

Information Technology
The integration of automation technology and information technology offers many advantages, such as the reduction of interfaces,use of the same hardware resources, greater transparency and data availability. Nowadays, production data in particular must be available quickly and reliably. It is important for efficient data analysis in order to extract important information from the data and then make the right decisions.
Thanks to the development of its own process information system KRIS, KRIKO Engineering has experience in handling high-performance database systems. A possible virtualization of data storage decouples the applications from the hardware used and can significantly increase the redundancy of a system. In this area, KRIKO Engineering offers various solutions from cold standby to high-availability systems, depending on the application.
How We Can Support You:
Planning and setting up virtual environments
Migration from physical to virtual environments
Planning and implementation of backup concepts
Setting up a domain (Active Directory)
Migration of devices from a workgroup to a domain
KRIKO Competences
Network Technology
Network technology now plays a central role in every major automation solution. The focus here is on reliable and secure data transmission. Network technology forms the basis for communication and data exchange in industrial systems and processes. Our trained network specialists cover the following areas:
Network architecture: designing and planning networks, including the selection of network devices, topologies and protocols to meet the requirements of the industrial environment
Switching and routing: configuration and management of network switches and routers for efficient and secure routing of data packets within the network, including across production sites
Industrial communication protocols: implementation and management of protocols such as Modbus, Profinet, EtherNet/IP, etc., which are widely used in industrial applications and enable communication between different devices and systems
Wireless networks: deployment and management of wireless networks such as WLAN, which are used in industrial environments for wireless communication between devices
Network management: monitoring, configuration and management of the network using tools and techniques to ensure smooth network functionality, performance, high data transfer speed and high network availability
Segmentation: Segmentation of networks into multiple virtual networks (VLAN), enabling efficient resource utilization and flexibility in industrial environments
