Frenos and Tecplix Partner to Deliver Continuous, Simulated OT Penetration Testing to Critical Infrastructure Operators
New partnership pairs Frenos's AI-driven simulated OT penetration testing platform with Tecplix's managed security operations and OT delivery expertise, giving operators a way to reveal every attack path without ever touching production.
CARLSBAD, Calif. and BENGALURU, India, June 18, 2026 — Frenos, the simulated OT penetration testing platform, and Tecplix Technologies, a global cybersecurity services provider, today announced a strategic partnership to bring continuous, simulated OT penetration testing to critical infrastructure operators. Together, the companies give defenders a safe way to see every attack path, prioritize what is truly exploitable, and act before adversaries do.
Under the partnership, Tecplix will deliver and support the Frenos platform for enterprises across energy, utilities, manufacturing, healthcare, transportation, and smart cities. Frenos brings a consequence-free digital twin, continuous simulated OT penetration testing, AI-driven vulnerability prioritization, and attack path analysis. Tecplix adds managed security operations and deep OT and ICS expertise. Together they give customers a clear path from insight to action, replacing reactive, point-in-time assessments with proactive, risk-based OT defense.
"OT teams do not need more data. They need to know what an attacker could actually do, without putting production at risk," said Brian Proctor, Founder and CEO of Frenos. "Tecplix brings the delivery muscle and OT depth to put that capability in the hands of the operators who need it most. Together we are giving critical infrastructure a safe place to test boldly and build real resilience."
"Our customers run some of the most critical environments in the world, where safety and uptime come first," said Jayakrishnan, Co-Founder and CEO at Tecplix. "Frenos lets us show them exactly where their real OT risk lives, and how to fix it, without ever touching a live system. It raises the bar for how OT security gets done across the markets we serve."
