Protecting Intellectual Property in Modern Manufacturing

Manufacturing companies face critical risks as proprietary designs flow into unauthorized AI apps, trade secrets are exfiltrated through digital channels, production data lies exposed in external communications, and confidential product specifications are inappropriately shared with vendors. Traditional security approaches cannot protect intellectual property in today's manufacturing environment.

Solution & Benefits

Secure your designs and production processes without impacting innovation

Challenge 1

Exfiltration of Product Design Specifications

The Problem

Design specifications, CAD files, and production process documentation create significant IP risks when maliciously exfiltrated through common channels or inappropriately shared with suppliers or contractors.

Our Solution

AI-powered data lineage that identifies proprietary design content, technical specifications, and manufacturing documentation with high precision across all apps, browsers, endpoints.

Your Benefit

Protect your competitive advantage by securing IP without impacting user productivity in your manufacturing process.

Challenge 2

Shadow AI Risks

The Problem

Design engineers and production teams using unauthorized AI apps create substantial IP risks by submitting proprietary designs, manufacturing processes, or supplier information to third-party platforms.

Our Solution

Browser plugins and lightweight endpoint sensors monitor AI interactions before submission, preventing sensitive designs and proprietary manufacturing processes from entering third-party AI apps.

Your Benefit

Allow productivity-enhancing AI adoption in manufacturing workflows while preventing IP exposure through unauthorized channels.

Challenge 3

Inappropriate Sharing with Supply Chain Partners

The Problem

Manufacturing staff frequently share confidential designs, pricing information, or proprietary processes with unauthorized suppliers or contractors, often without recognizing the risks.

Our Solution

Granular policy controls that allow appropriate sharing with authorized partners while preventing oversharing of proprietary information based on content classification, user groups, recipient domains, encryption and expiration settings.
