Xage Security and Yokogawa Engineering Asia Pte Ltd will collaborate to provide zero trust access, protection, and data exchange for autonomous industrial operations.
It is a major step toward industrial automation to autonomy while maintaining cybersecurity and human and environmental safety.
Xage and Yokogawa are developing security solutions that integrate the Xage Fabric to speed industrial plant transformation toward secure, autonomous operations. This means facilities will learn and adapt like humans without human interaction.
The plant and its integrated supply chain and industry partners operate autonomously in this optimal state.
“This partnership with Xage Security marks a strategic milestone for Yokogawa as we strengthen our commitment to safety and excellence in autonomous operations,” according to Charles Lim, industrial cybersecurity evangelist of Yokogawa Engineering Asia. “Xage’s cutting-edge security solutions align well with our vision of industrial automation and are instrumental in our next-generation initiatives.”
Creating a fully digital organization requires advanced and accurate security. Data management and security across OT, IT, and IIoT systems is a major barrier in automating processes. Local and remote asset security and access protocols are essential for data management.
Yokogawa strengthens its security solutions with strategic alliances as critical infrastructure security needs grow. These relationships allow Yokogawa to provide process industries tailored and creative solutions.
Yokogawa has set technology partner requirements to improve cybersecurity and resilience to maintain continuous operations during incidents, manage data sharing and network access permissions, and enforce audit and access policies for operational assets to address industry security needs and industrial autonomy.

Xage uses easily implemented and enforced zero trust policies for all users and assets, from ancient systems to the latest cloud technologies, to preventatively secure them. Using a distributed ledger, Xage protects data integrity and rigorously logs all actions in audit-quality logs.
Xage provides worldwide zero trust access and safety in sensitive locations including data centers and satellites. To ensure high implementation and service standards, the Yokogawa staff has thorough Xage product training and certification.
Kelvin Chin, regional director for APJ at Xage Security, adds, “Yokogawa is propelling the industry forward with its visionary approach to industrial autonomy, and by placing security at the forefront, they are demonstrating true leadership. We are proud to partner with Yokogawa as they lead the way in this field, and together, we are committed to securing industrial operations with robust zero trust architecture.”
This relationship between Xage and Yokogawa will transform industrial processes and enable industrial autonomy and cybersecurity.
