Our take
What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
- Darktrace OT
Best for: Teams wanting AI to learn normal plant behavior
Its place on the list comes from response, because Cyber AI Analyst investigates and ranks incidents and response actions can run on their own, which helps when no one watches the plant network full time. It runs as a hybrid deployment for mid-market and enterprise. Decide early which actions it may take without a human, since an automatic block on a control network can stop production.
