Respect Your Elders.

That pump has moved water since before anyone in the control room was born. Trout secures your legacy pumps, PLCs, and RTUs for NIS2, NERC CIP, and the water sector, without laying a finger on them.

The Workhorse

Your pumps aren't the problem.

That lift-station pump from '89? Still moving water every day.

The PLC older than half your operators? Never missed a cycle.

Your RTUs don't crash, don't need reboots, and definitely don't ask for firmware updates. They are the backbone of the plant.

No regulation says you have to replace them. Respect your elders. They have earned it.

The Challenge

Protecting them is.

NIS2, NERC CIP, and water-sector rules want access control, audit logs, and segmentation. All reasonable.

Except your pump controller was built before any of that existed.

Most security tools want to install an agent. Good luck with that on an RTU running firmware older than the plant manager.

They also want a maintenance window. A city that needs its water pressure would like a word.

Rip-and-replace isn't compliance. It is a boil-water notice waiting to happen.

Free Sticker Pack

Show your pumps some respect.

Slap these on the pump house, the RTU cabinet, the SCADA console. Wherever a hard-working elder deserves a little love.

Trout's Approach

Secure the old-timers where they stand.

Compliance without rip-and-replace

Walk into a NIS2, NERC CIP, or water-sector review without swapping a single pump.

The Access Gate delivers the evidence reviewers look for, wrapped around your existing OT.

Nothing installed on your pumps

Trout uses overlay networking to protect pumps and controllers at the network layer. No agents, no installs, no “is this compatible?” conversations.

If it has an Ethernet or serial link, we have it covered.

What we deliver

  • Audit logs, always on, for NIS2, NERC CIP, and EPA reviews
  • Encrypted flows so a command cannot be spoofed
  • Asset inventory for every PLC, RTU, and pump controller
  • Incident replay to see exactly what happened
