  • [H2] Industrial Organizations Overestimate Remote Access Security, New Global Report Finds
  • [H2] Vendor access is the primary risk multiplier\nAs vendor ecosystems expand, incident likelihood rises sharply. Organizations managing 21\u2013100 external vendors report the highest exposure levels. Risk concentrates where vendor session visibility is partial and credential reviews are infrequent. Vendor-related risk, the report concludes, is not primarily driven by vendor behavior \u2014 but by how organizations structure and govern vendor access.\nPartial vendor visibility is the global norm\nOnly 43% of organizations report full audit trails of vendor sessions. The majority operate with partial visibility, creating compliance and forensic blind spots. Absence of vendor visibility correlates with universal incident exposure.\nZero trust adoption delivers measurable impact\nZero Trust depth shows a clear stepwise relationship with:\n\n Higher session visibility\n Improved vendor auditability\n Faster enablement speeds\n Reduced incident volatility\n\n  Organizations implementing all five core Zero Trust principles reach visibility levels not achieved through tooling alone.\nGovernance and IT/OT alignment predict outcomes\nNearly 70% of organizations now operate under shared IT/OT governance models \u2014 the structure most consistently associated with balanced security, operational speed and auditability.\nWhere alignment weakens, vendor-related incident exposure nearly triples.\nTool fragmentation erodes control\nMost organizations rely on multiple parallel access tools \u2014 VPNs, OEM utilities, PAM solutions and emerging OT-dedicated platforms.\n Session visibility declines measurably as tool stack complexity increases. Organizations using three or more remote access tools report lower visibility and higher friction than those operating consolidated environments.\nConsolidation momentum is accelerating\nThe data shows a clear market shift toward identity-centric, unified OT remote access platforms. Compared to non-users, organizations using OT-dedicated platforms report:\n\n Higher average session visibility\n Stronger full audit trail rates\n Lower incident exposure\n Faster vendor enablement\n Stronger IT/OT alignment\n\nThe report concludes that consolidation is not about replacing every legacy tool, but about governing access through a single operational control layer.\nA structural shift, not a tactical upgrade\nRemote access has evolved from a convenience tool to a strategic control surface for industrial operations. As regulatory pressure intensifies and vendor ecosystems expand, the industry is converging toward:\n\n Federated vendor control models\n Shared IT/OT governance\n Identity-based access enforcement\n Time-bound, session-based permissions\n Unified auditability\n\nThe report describes this transition as a move from fragmented, reactive access to standardized, secure, policy-driven remote operations.\nAbout the report\nThe State of Industrial Remote Access 2026 is based on a global survey of 400 OT, IT, compliance and executive leaders across manufacturing and critical infrastructure sectors. The study examines architectural patterns, governance models, vendor access practices, Zero Trust adoption, regulatory alignment and operational performance indicators.\nAbout Secomea\nSecomea is a Secure Remote Access (SRA) solution purpose-built for industrial networks and OT equipment. More than 8,000 customers worldwide rely on Secomea to manage secure remote access to their machines, prevent downtime and strengthen cybersecurity across their global operations.
