Skip the costly rip-and-replace cycle. With Trout, you can secure legacy PLCs, HMIs, and other unpatchable assets by placing them behind micro-DMZs — extending their life while meeting today’s security and compliance standards.

Skip the costly rip-and-replace cycle. With Trout, you can secure legacy PLCs, HMIs, and other unpatchable assets by placing them behind micro-DMZs — extending their life while meeting today’s security and compliance standards.

Operational environments must balance long-lived assets with increasingly dynamic conditions.

Challenge

Challenge

Industrial networks are full of systems that are too old to update yet too vital to retire.

  • They control essential operations, making replacement risky.

  • They cannot be patched to today’s security standards.

  • They leave compliance gaps auditors can’t overlook.

This tension leaves manufacturers stuck: pay millions to upgrade, or accept the risks of aging infrastructure.

Trout gives you a third option: protect what you already have. Instead of exposing legacy equipment directly, we wrap each device in its own micro-DMZ enclave.

That means:

  • Threats never reach your vulnerable assets.

  • Operators and analytics still see the data they need.

  • Compliance frameworks recognize your controls as modern and valid.

The device doesn’t have to change — the protection around it does.
