See Everything That Happens on Your OT Systems

When something goes wrong in your OT environment, you need answers fast. Who accessed that PLC? What commands were run? When did the configuration change? WALLIX captures every privileged session with video-style playback, giving you complete visibility for investigations, audits, and operational insight.

THE CHALLENGE

You Can’t Secure What You Can’t See

The Visibility Gap in OT

  • No Record of Privileged Actions

    Someone accessed the SCADA server last night. What did they do? Traditional logs show a connection was made, but nothing about what happened during the session.

  • Slow Incident Investigation

    When production stops unexpectedly, finding the root cause means piecing together fragments from multiple log sources. Hours pass while you’re still gathering data.

  • No Real-Time Awareness

    You find out about problems after they’ve already impacted production. By the time you know someone did something risky, the damage is done.

  • Audit Evidence Gaps

    Regulators and auditors ask who accessed critical systems. You have connection logs but can’t demonstrate what those users actually did.

HOW IT WORKS

Complete Visibility in Four Layers

WALLIX captures every privileged session at multiple levels – from connection metadata to keystroke-level detail. Real-time monitoring lets you watch sessions as they happen, while recordings provide evidence for later investigation.

  • 1

    Session Recording

    Every privileged session is recorded automatically. Graphical sessions (RDP, VNC) are captured as video-style recordings you can play back. Text sessions (SSH, Telnet) capture every command and response.

  • 2

    Metadata Extraction

    Beyond video capture, WALLIX extracts searchable metadata from sessions. Window titles, application names, typed text (via OCR), and executed commands are all indexed.

  • 3

    Real-Time Monitoring

    Watch active sessions as they happen. Security teams can observe sensitive operations in real-time. If something looks wrong, intervene immediately.

  • 4

    Alerting and Analysis

    Configure alerts for specific activities – commands that shouldn’t be run, access at unusual times, sessions exceeding duration limits.

Recordings cryptographically signed and stored securely. Evidence integrity maintained for legal and compliance requirements.

FAQ

Common Questions

Text sessions are very compact – typically kilobytes per session. Graphical sessions use more storage but WALLIX applies intelligent compression. Typical: 50-200 MB per hour of active graphical session.

No perceptible latency. Recording happens at the gateway level without intercepting the session stream.

Yes. WALLIX indexes session metadata including executed commands, window titles, and OCR-extracted text.

Retention requirements vary by framework. WALLIX supports configurable retention policies with automatic archival.

WALLIX recordings are designed for evidentiary use. Cryptographic signing ensures integrity. Chain of custody is maintained.
