Data Mediation for Critical Infrastructure.
Protect the operational systems that energy, water, transport and communications networks depend on, keep them running, and bring AI to them safely.
The challenge
Critical infrastructure runs on operational technology and heritage systems built to last for decades, often on protocols that modern security tools were not designed for. Replacing or patching them is slow and risky.
AI-enabled attacks target exactly these systems, while operators are expected to use AI to improve reliability and efficiency, without putting operations at risk.
The answer
TomorrowX places a trusted Data Mediation point in front of the systems the organisation already runs. It acts on data in motion, across any protocol, with no changes to the applications. The same point protects what was built and connects it to what comes next, so protection and progress happen at the same time. For security and risk leaders, it clears items from the board’s technology audit list. For Chief AI Officers, it removes the constraints that hold AI back.
What Data Mediation clears for Critical Infrastructure
Protect · Cyber · For security and risk leaders
Clear the board’s technology audit list
On the list, and how it is cleared
- No visibility across operational and heritage protocolsMulti-protocol observability: Every data journey seen, read-only, without changing anything.
- Control systems receiving unexpected commandsData Shaping: Only expected commands and values reach each system.
- Systems that must keep running but cannot be patchedZero-day and Daybreak protection: Protected at the boundary while patches are prepared.
- Resilience gaps when a system failsStand-in systems and resilience: Services kept available while the system recovers.
Progress · AI · For Chief AI Officers
Remove the constraints on AI
The constraint, and how it is removed
- Operational data out of reach for AIData Connection: Connected live and in place, read-only first, with no systems integration.
- Security will not approve AI near operationsAI Data Guard: Data shaped before any model sees it, under the operator’s own policy.
- Models that cannot be trusted to act on operationsAI evaluation on live data: Evaluated against real operations in Listen Only first.
- Platform moves that put operations at riskMigration and cutover assurance: Data journeys observed and compared before cutover.
Who it is for
- Chief information security and chief risk officers
- Chief AI officers and AI programme leads
- Chief executives and boards accountable for resilience
- Operational technology and engineering leads
Where it is needed
Wherever Critical Infrastructure needs to solve a problem in the data path. Data Mediation sits in front of any system, across any protocol, with no changes to the applications, so it can be applied wherever the problem is.
TomorrowX is open to testing it on new use cases. A Proof of Capability and Value shows within a week, on the organisation’s own data, whether it solves the problem.
