The article says Net One Partners has signed a distributor agreement with Xage Security to bring Xage’s zero trust platform to manufacturing and critical infrastructure customers, especially in Japan. The goal is to help these organizations secure modern environments where traditional IT systems, operational technology (OT), and now AI-driven systems are increasingly connected. The piece explains that digital transformation, IT/OT convergence, remote operations, IoT, and digital twins are all expanding the number of users, devices, and connections that need protection, which is driving demand for a more unified, identity-based security model.

In practical terms, Xage’s platform is presented as a single system that combines secure remote access, privileged access management, zero trust segmentation, and asset protection across IT, OT, and AI environments. The article says this is meant to give customers stronger identity-based access control, continuous verification, and fine-grained segmentation without disrupting industrial operations. It also notes that Net One Partners sees this as a way to expand its OT security business in manufacturing and critical infrastructure, while preparing customers for future AI-enabled operations and more complex cyber risks.
