Why Manufacturing & Engineering Choose
Iron Core

Your production floor can’t afford downtime, your designs are proprietary, and your government contracts demand CMMC compliance. Iron Core delivers managed IT, cybersecurity, and OT security built for manufacturers, machine shops, and engineering firms across NJ and Eastern PA.

Industry Risk
Manufacturing is the most-attacked industry globally. Ransomware targeting OT systems can halt production for weeks. Intellectual property theft costs U.S. manufacturers billions annually. DoD contractors face CMMC certification deadlines.

What We Deliver

OT/IT Network Segmentation: Proper segmentation between your office network and production floor systems. Protect PLCs, SCADA, and CNC machines without disrupting operations.
CMMC & NIST 800-171 Compliance: Full implementation of CMMC Level 2 and NIST 800-171 controls for DoD contractors. System Security Plans, POA&Ms, and assessment preparation.
Intellectual Property Protection: DLP policies, access controls, and monitoring that protect your CAD files, engineering drawings, proprietary processes, and trade secrets.
Production Continuity Planning: Disaster recovery that accounts for both IT systems and production equipment. Minimize downtime when ransomware, hardware failures, or weather events strike.
Remote Access & Multi-Site Security: Secure VPN, zero-trust access, and site-to-site connectivity for multi-facility operations. Engineers can access systems safely from anywhere.
Endpoint & IoT Device Management: Security for every connected device — from engineering workstations to shop floor sensors. Patch management, monitoring, and threat detection across your entire operation.
