Telefónica, through its venture capital arm Telefónica Innovation Ventures, has made an investment in cybersecurity company Nozomi Networks.
Telefónica’s investment—the amount wasn’t disclosed—added additional cybersecurity capabilities across industrial environments in the face of evolving threats to critical assets.
San Francisco, Calif.-based Nozomi Networks protects operational technology (OT) and IoT infrastructures across various verticals such as energy, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, logistics and the automotive industry. The investment came on the heels of a joint services agreement earlier this year between Nozomi and Telefónica’s cybersecurity company, ElevenPaths.
