we are the guys who cracked stuxnet

We have been among the first to develop the field of ICS security. We have cracked the Stuxnet malware. We have helped asset owners in critical infrastructure and manufacturing to protect against nation-state level cyber attacks.

Now we are building game-changing software for assuring the security and reliability of complex OT infrastructures.

Langner is a software company specializing in cyber security for critical infrastructure and large-scale manufacturing. We did not just produce printed paper or fancy technical gizmos but results that changed the way cyber security, and national security in a larger sense, is seen.

Our analysis of the Stuxnet malware has triggered global changes in policy and defense. In cyber-physical security, we know what works and what doesn’t by decades of hands-on experience. We have given advice to the White House, the Pentagon, the US Senate, the United Nations, and many others.

We believe that OT/ICS security requires more than just technical point solutions — namely strategy and policy, and the indispensable knowledge of human experts, empowered by strong analytical tools. We believe that a combination of strategic thinking, sound technology, good data and skilled people can and will solve the most pressing cyber-physical security problems, and meet the challenge of building a reliable and safe Industrial Internet of Things.
