Rockwell Automation Strengthens Industrial Cybersecurity with New Security Operations Center in Singapore

2026-02-09 10:00 Last Updated At:10:15

New facility delivers 24/7 threat monitoring, rapid response and AI-driven cybersecurity for industrial operations across Asia Pacific.

SINGAPORE, Feb. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Rockwell Automation, the world's largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, has launched a Security Operations Center (SOC) in Singapore, enhancing cybersecurity resilience for industrial customers across Asia Pacific.

The new facility is part of Rockwell Automation's global network of Managed Security Services and delivers 24/7 real-time monitoring, advanced threat detection and rapid incident response through its SecureOT™ Security Monitoring and Response capabilities. Designed to address the growing convergence of IT and OT environments, the SOC helps industrial companies detect, respond to and recover from cybersecurity incidents faster and more effectively.

Located within Rockwell's Asia Pacific headquarters in Singapore, the SOC serves as a regional hub for Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services. It integrates vendor-neutral data ingestion, contextualized threat intelligence, and risk-based prioritization, enabling industrial teams to focus on the most critical vulnerabilities across complex, multi-vendor environments while ensuring rapid response and step-by-step remediation guided by Rockwell's cybersecurity experts.

"Cybersecurity is now inseparable from digital transformation," said Marcelo Tarkieltaub, regional director, Southeast Asia, Rockwell Automation. "Our new regional SOC hub in Singapore reflects our commitment to helping manufacturers connect, automate and protect their operations end-to-end. Having multiple capabilities under one roof allows for deeper collaboration and faster response, delivering stronger protection for our customers' critical operations. It enables them to test and engage with our capabilities firsthand, an important step for organizations evaluating the right partners for their cybersecurity journey."

 "The opening of our regional SOC reinforces Singapore's role as a cybersecurity hub for the region. We look forward to deepening our collaboration with local agencies, academia and partners to strengthen industrial resilience and upskill new cybersecurity talent. In fact, we've recently onboarded several young professionals with cybersecurity majors, building their expertise to support global clients in the industrial security space."

Companies in the region face growing threats such as data theft, extortion, and ransomware, in part due to Asia Pacific's critical role in global supply chains and its position as a technology and manufacturing hub. Rockwell Automation's 10th Annual 2025 State of Smart Manufacturing Report found that cybersecurity has risen to the second most critical external risk for manufacturers in Asia Pacific, with nearly half of respondents planning to deploy AI and machine learning for cybersecurity use cases within the next year.

Rockwell Automation's SOC leverages Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR), a technology platform that combines automation, AI and analytics to streamline and accelerate responses to cyber threats. This enables Rockwell's Managed Detection and Response services to offer customers a single pane of glass view of cyber incidents and actions across multiple sites, as some global manufacturers need to monitor more than 100 locations.

Aligned with Singapore's national ambition to build a secure digital economy, the facility complements Rockwell's collaboration with the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) and industry partners to advance industrial cybersecurity maturity across the region. It will also host training workshops and customer simulations, giving participants hands-on exposure to real-world OT threat scenarios.

The new SOC builds on Rockwell's SecureOT™ Solution Suite, which encompasses Strategic Advisory, Managed Industrial Networking and Infrastructure, Asset Management, Risk and Vulnerability Management, and Incident Response services.

Rockwell Automation Strengthens Industrial Cybersecurity with New Security Operations Center in Singapore

Rockwell Automation Strengthens Industrial Cybersecurity with New Security Operations Center in Singapore

PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands, March 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- KuCoin, a leading global crypto platform built on trust, today announced the launch of KuCoin Skills Hub, an evolving open skills marketplace designed to give AI agents broader crypto-native access through standardized, modular capabilities. KuCoin Skills Hub is compatible with mainstream agent frameworks and development environments, helping retail users access crypto through more intuitive natural-language interactions while enabling institutions, developers, and quantitative teams to build automated research, trading, and asset management workflows more efficiently. Rooted in KuCoin's belief that technology should serve people and be built on trusted, transparent infrastructure, the launch marks a further step in modularizing crypto capabilities for practical AI adoption in real-world use cases.

As AI agents evolve from conversational tools into execution-oriented systems, crypto infrastructure must become more accessible, composable, and action-ready. Historically, fragmented tools, complex interfaces, and technical barriers have limited advanced crypto workflows to a relatively narrow group of users. KuCoin Skills Hub is designed to help close that gap by converting complex underlying functions into structured skills that can be accessed more naturally and deployed more broadly.

Trust, security, and execution control remain central to the platform's architecture. KuCoin Skills Hub incorporates safeguards around permission control, credential isolation, sensitive data protection, execution boundaries, and exception handling to support more secure and controllable deployment in real-world environments.

Through natural-language interaction, users can access market insights, monitor signals and market activity, and query exchange data more efficiently through the Skills Hub. Support for deeper interaction scenarios such as wallet operations, on-chain insights, liquidity provision, staking, lending, and yield strategies will be introduced in future releases, enabling a more unified workflow for insight, decision-making, execution, and broader ecosystem participation.

"AI is changing how people interact with the crypto economy, but the real value of technology lies in whether it can serve real users on top of infrastructure they can trust," said BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin. "Built on KuCoin's expanding ecosystem and broader crypto-native AI initiatives, KuCoin Skills Hub is designed to transform complex crypto capabilities into more intuitive, scalable, and usable modules — making crypto more accessible for everyday users while giving institutions and developers a more flexible foundation for the next generation of intelligent applications. We see this as an important step toward a more open, practical, and trustworthy AI-enabled crypto ecosystem."

Looking ahead, KuCoin Skills Hub will continue to expand its skills library, data sources, protocol integrations, and operational capabilities, further strengthening the open infrastructure layer needed for the next phase of AI-enabled crypto innovation.
