Dragos and Microsoft Expand Partnership to Strengthen Industrial Cybersecurity
Dragos has expanded its partnership with Microsoft to improve cybersecurity for industrial and critical infrastructure environments. The collaboration integrates Dragos’ operational technology (OT) threat detection, intelligence and incident response capabilities with Microsoft’s cloud and security platforms, including Azure and Microsoft Sentinel. The goal is to give asset owners and operators better visibility into industrial threats and to align OT security with broader enterprise security operations. The collaboration offers users a comprehensive OT security architecture in Microsoft environments for unified IT/OT security operations, improved visibility, reduced procurement friction and a future-ready foundation for securing AI-enabled automated operations.
Industrial organizations continue to face rising cyber risk as IT and OT environments converge. Integrating OT-specific telemetry and intelligence into enterprise security tools is a growing priority, as many security teams lack native visibility into industrial protocols and assets. By combining Dragos's OT visibility and threat intelligence with Microsoft's cloud, SIEM, and security operations, users gain seamless enterprise-wide cybersecurity. For defenders, the Dragos-Microsoft partnership reflects a broader trend toward unifying IT and OT security operations. By connecting industrial threat intelligence with cloud-scale analytics and SIEM capabilities, the collaboration aims to help organizations detect attacks earlier, respond more effectively and better protect critical infrastructure as digital transformation continues.
