Why Trout?

Industrial Cybersecurity, Without Downtime

Industrial networks are more connected than ever — and more exposed.

Legacy systems, IT, and OT now share the same risk surface. But rebuilding your networks isn’t an option: it’s slow, costly, and would bring operations offline for days or weeks. Air-gaps don’t fit digital transformation, and compliance demands are only growing.

Trout solves this with a Secure Twin overlay — you gain modern security while keeping operations running smoothly.

Accelerating Industrial Security

Trout solution provides a simple, plug-in solution to Leapfrog sites to a Dynamic Security Maturity.

Trout Technology

Trout is a plug-in solution that gives visibility, access control, and protection, without disruption.

Trout is a drop-in appliance for OT networks — built to give IT teams visibility and control without the usual overhead. No more SSH’ing into devices to tcpdump, managing a fleet of agents, or fielding endless VLAN access requests.


Everything you need in one appliance

Plug & See. Connect Trout to your firewall or switch — see assets and protocol flows. No additional rewiring needed or VLAN work.

Visibility. Maps who talks to who across assets, behaviors, and protocols

Segment & Control. Define zones to isolate systems and enforce least-privilege access

Secure Remote Access. Grant on-demand, policy-driven access for contractors or remote teams — with visibility and control.

Log & Prove. Capture clean, structured logs from the edge. Feed them into your SIEM or use them for root-cause and audit trails.

Automate Compliance. Enforce security policies and automate audit-ready evidence.

FAQ

Trout - Secure Existing Networks Without Rebuilding Them

What is Trout?

Trout is a drop-in appliance for OT (Operational Technology) networks that gives IT teams visibility, access control, and protection — all without the complexity of agents or infrastructure overhaul.

What is Framer?

Framer is a no-code tool for building and publishing responsive websites—perfect for anyone creating modern, high-performance pages without coding.

How does Trout secure industrial environments without downtime?

Trout builds a “Secure Twin” overlay on top of existing infrastructure, meaning you get modern security capabilities (segmentation, access control, monitoring) without rewiring, downtime, or network redesign.

Do I need to know how to code to use Framer?

Framer is fully visual with no code needed, but you can still add custom code and components for more control if you're a designer or developer.

What are the core features of Trout’s appliance?

Visibility & Mapping of assets, protocols, and network behavior. Segment & Control via micro-zones and isolation. Secure Remote Access with policy enforcement. Logging & Audit Trails forwarded to your SIEM. Automated Compliance evidence and policy enforcement.

What is this FAQ component?

This is a free, responsive FAQ section for Framer. Drop it into any project, customize styles and text, and use it to save time on support or info pages.

Which use cases does Trout support?

Trout is used for CMMC/ISO27001 compliance, remote vendor access, inter-VLAN authorization, zero-trust architecture, time-bound maintenance access, 802.1X replacement, and industrial network segmentation.

How do I add this FAQ component to my project?

After duplicating, copy and paste the component into your Framer project. Then edit the questions, answers, styles, and animations as needed.

Does this require a full network redesign or rewiring?

No — one of the key selling points is that no rewiring or network redesign is required. Installation is intended to be non-disruptive, preserving existing address schemes and network architecture.

Can I customize the design of this component?

Yes, absolutely. The component is built using native Framer tools, so you can tweak fonts, colors, spacing, animations, and layout however you like.

Can Trout’s solution integrate with my existing identity and access systems?

Yes — it can use Microsoft 365 / Azure AD + MFA to control access, meaning you don’t have to manage a separate identity store.

Is this component responsive?

Yes, the FAQ component is fully responsive and adapts seamlessly to desktop, tablet, and mobile screen sizes.

Who is the ideal candidate for this solution?

Manufacturers, critical infrastructure operators, and DoD contractors who maintain legacy OT environments and need strong cybersecurity and compliance without disrupting production.

Is this component responsive?

Yes, the FAQ component is fully responsive and adapts seamlessly to desktop, tablet, and mobile screen sizes.

In Summary - Secure Operational Networks Without Rebuilding Them

Trout Software builds plug-and-play network & cybersecurity appliances that create secure overlays for industrial and manufacturing networks — enabling compliance (CMMC, ISO, IEC, NIS2), Zero-Trust segmentation, and secure remote access without rewiring or downtime.

Designed for factories, critical infrastructure, and defense contractors, Trout’s on-premise device discovers assets, segments traffic into micro-DMZ enclaves, enforces identity-based access via Microsoft 365 / Azure AD + MFA, and logs all activity for audit and incident response.

Unlike traditional firewalls or NAC systems, Trout protects legacy and unpatchable equipment through network-level encryption, policy enforcement, and continuous monitoring — bridging the gap between IT and OT security.

By combining agentless deployment, software defined networking capabilities, and real-time visibility, Trout delivers an immediate compliance uplift for organizations seeking to secure operational environments and protect sensitive information.
