Censys, the authority for Internet intelligence and insights, announced a strategic partnership with Rilian Technologies, a leading provider of AI-native cyber defense solutions for sovereign nations and critical infrastructure. The partnership builds on Censys’ rapid growth in the Middle East, where it supports national cybersecurity authorities, energy operators, financial institutions, technology organizations, and users across nearly every country in the region.
Censys equips global security teams with the most comprehensive and continuously updated intelligence on Internet-facing hosts, certificates, and services, including industry-leading visibility into critical infrastructure through advanced industrial control systems and operational technology (ICS/OT) capabilities. Censys supports 26 protocols (such as Modbus, DNP3, Siemens S7, and BACnet), 68 vendors, and 226 ICS fingerprints for precise industrial asset identification. Additionally, defenders gain access to 4+ years of historical context for Internet-connected assets, enabling long-term tracking of threat infrastructure, asset identification, and exposure management.
The Rilian Defense Platform (“RDP”) is a modular, AI-native software platform that revolutionizes how mission-critical technologies are accessed, adopted, and automated across sovereign and sensitive environments. Built to remove friction at every step of the global technology supply chain, the RDP reduces the human lift, compliance burden, and integration overhead traditionally required to deploy cutting-edge tools. Additionally, the RDP provides customers with a unified interface that surfaces real-time insights, usage telemetry, and AI-driven recommendations.
