Full Prevention for Every OT Endpoint. Two Editions, One Product.

Stellar Protect delivers prevention-first security across Windows 2000 through Windows 11. ICS Edition for the full prevention suite; Kiosk Edition for the most constrained legacy endpoints.

Stellar Protect blocks threats before execution with automated per-device baselines, 70,000+ OT applications recognized automatically, application lockdown, USB device control, and Cyber-Physical Systems Detection and Response (CPSDR). Deploy ICS Edition wherever the endpoint can run the full agent; choose Kiosk Edition for single-purpose systems that need the lightest possible footprint.

Your OT endpoints need prevention, not just detection. Stellar Protect delivers both ICS and Kiosk editions on the same platform.

IT-adapted EDR tools crash legacy systems, generate false positives on legitimate OT processes, and demand resources constrained endpoints cannot provide. Stellar Protect was built for the reality of OT. The ICS Edition is the full prevention suite: automated per-device baselines, the 70,000+ OT application recognition repository, full CPSDR behavioral anomaly detection, application lockdown, USB device control, network access control, and script-based plus fileless attack prevention. The Kiosk Edition is the lite counterpart: the same agent footprint scaled down for single-purpose endpoints, HMIs, and the oldest legacy systems that cannot run the full ICS agent. Both editions are managed through StellarOne. Both run in air-gapped environments. Both cover Windows 2000 SP4 through Windows 11 (ICS adds Linux malware scanning). If you have already invested in IT endpoint security, Stellar Protect adds the OT coverage it cannot provide.

Prevention Built for the Reality of OT Endpoints

Your production depends on systems IT security has abandoned. Windows XP runs batch processes. Windows 7 controls packaging lines. Server 2008 manages SCADA communications. These systems generate revenue every day, and IT EDR tools either cannot install on them or destabilize them when they do. Stellar Protect was built from the ground up for this reality. The ICS Edition is the flagship: full CPSDR, 70,000+ OT applications, automated baselines, network access control, and every prevention capability in the Stellar platform. The Kiosk Edition is the lite counterpart for the endpoints that cannot run ICS: the same proven agent architecture, with multi-engine malware scanning, USB control, operation lockdown, and script-based attack prevention in the lightest footprint Stellar offers. Pick ICS wherever the endpoint supports it. Pick Kiosk for everything else. Both editions are managed by StellarOne, both operate air-gapped, and both extend asset life 7-10 years without forced replacement.

Prevention-First, Not Detection-First

Application lockdown plus baseline enforcement blocks threats before execution, including fileless.

Windows 2000 Through Windows 11

Legacy OS support committed through 2031 across both ICS and Kiosk editions.

OT-Native, Not IT-Adapted

70,000+ OT applications recognized; multi-engine malware scanning on both editions.

OT Security Challenges

Critical challenges that Stellar Protect is purpose-built to solve

01 / 04

50.9% have endpoint protection in place; the other 49% run unprotected legacy Windows

IT Security Vendors Abandoned Your Legacy Windows Systems

Windows XP, Windows 7, and Server 2008 remain essential to production, yet IT security vendors dropped support years ago. Your most critical systems run without protection because the alternative is replacing millions in functional equipment.

01 / 06

CPSDR Behavioral Anomaly Detection

Cyber-Physical Systems Detection and Response analyzes machine operating behavior rather than user behavior. ICS Edition includes full CPSDR that detects deviations from established OT operational baselines, blocking fileless and living-off-the-land techniques such as Volt Typhoon class attacks before execution. Kiosk Edition provides script-based detection subset.

Key Capabilities

Full CPSDR in ICS Edition; script-based subset in Kiosk

Detects fileless and living-off-the-land techniques

Blocks behavior outside approved operational baseline

OT-native, not IT user-behavior analytics

70,000+ OT Application Recognition

ICS Edition ships with the 70,000+ OT application recognition repository built through partnerships with leading industrial device manufacturers. Legitimate industrial operations are recognized automatically without manual allowlist creation. Engineering software, SCADA communications, and PLC programming tools are trusted by default.

Key Capabilities

70,000+ recognized OT applications and certificates

Partnership-validated manufacturer certificates

Eliminates weeks of manual allowlist maintenance

Zero false positives on critical OT processes

Automated Per-Device Baseline Generation (ICS Edition)

ICS Edition generates a unique operational baseline for every protected endpoint, capturing the authorized state of configurations, files, and processes. Any deviation triggers immediate prevention. Baseline-locked prevention blocks anything outside approved behavior, including novel attack techniques, because anything not on the baseline is denied by application lockdown.

Key Capabilities

Automated baseline capture per endpoint

Real-time change detection and prevention

Protection for configurations, files, and processes

Prevention before execution, not after detection

Application Lockdown and Operation Lockdown

Trusted application baseline blocks unauthorized execution. Operation lockdown prevents changes to critical system configurations. USB device control stops unauthorized peripherals at the port. 81.9% of USB suspicious activity in OT environments involves file transfers (Nozomi Networks 2025 1H OT/IoT Security Report), and application lockdown with USB control closes that vector.

Key Capabilities

Trusted application baseline enforcement

Operation lockdown for critical system changes

Granular USB device control policies

Prevents unauthorized execution, both ICS and Kiosk

Multi-Engine Malware Scanning

Signature, behavioral, and heuristic engines combine for layered detection. ICS and Kiosk editions both include multi-engine scanning. Combined with baseline enforcement and application lockdown, layered prevention efficacy blocks even novel fileless and living-off-the-land techniques before execution (TXOne product testing and deployment data).

Key Capabilities

Signature plus behavioral plus heuristic engines

ICS and Kiosk both include multi-engine scanning

Script-based and fileless attack prevention

Works alongside application lockdown for layered defense

Full Air-Gap Operation

Stellar Protect operates with full prevention capability in air-gapped networks. No mandatory internet connection, no cloud dependency. Pattern and signature updates distributed via USB through StellarOne. 41% of organizations report no detection coverage at remote sites (SANS 2025), and Stellar Protect closes that gap without forcing connectivity.

Key Capabilities

No mandatory internet or cloud connectivity

USB pattern and signature update support

Full prevention capability offline

Designed for isolated OT networks

CPSDR Behavioral Anomaly Detection

Cyber-Physical Systems Detection and Response analyzes machine operating behavior rather than user behavior. ICS Edition includes full CPSDR that detects deviations from established OT operational baselines, blocking fileless and living-off-the-land techniques such as Volt Typhoon class attacks before execution. Kiosk Edition provides script-based detection subset.

Key Capabilities

Full CPSDR in ICS Edition; script-based subset in Kiosk

Detects fileless and living-off-the-land techniques

Blocks behavior outside approved operational baseline

OT-native, not IT user-behavior analytics

Protect Legacy Windows Systems Still Running Production

Windows XP, Windows 7, and Server 2008 remain essential to production. IT security vendors dropped support years ago. 83% cite replacement cost as primary barrier (iVOX 2025, N=550). Stellar ICS extends secure operational life by 7-10 years without replacing functional equipment, avoiding $2-5M in replacement costs per system (TXOne customer deployment analysis).

CPSDR: Cyber-Physical Systems Detection and Response

Machine-Behavior Analytics for OT

CPSDR analyzes how each OT machine actually operates, not how users interact with it. The agent establishes a behavioral baseline for every endpoint and blocks any deviation. Because anything outside the baseline is denied by application lockdown, CPSDR blocks even novel fileless and living-off-the-land techniques before execution. This is the ICS Edition capability. Kiosk provides a script-based detection subset only.
