Industrial organizations overestimate remote access security, new global report finds

“The State of Industrial Remote Access 2026” reveals rising vendor risk, visibility gaps, and accelerating shift toward unified OT access platforms

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Industrial organizations worldwide are entering 2026 with growing confidence in their remote access security posture — but new research commissioned by Secomea shows that confidence often exceeds operational reality.

According to The State of Industrial Remote Access 2026 industry report[1], based on a global survey of 400 senior leaders across manufacturing and critical infrastructure, most organizations rate their session visibility and regulatory readiness as “good.” However, deeper analysis reveals significant structural gaps in vendor oversight, credential hygiene, and auditability.

The report identifies a widening “confidence-to-evidence gap” in industrial cybersecurity: while compliance confidence rises quickly at moderate levels of visibility, full vendor session auditability remains uncommon.

 

The State of Industrial Remote Access 2026
The State of Industrial Remote Access 2026

 

Key Findings

Vendor access is the primary risk multiplier

As vendor ecosystems expand, incident likelihood rises sharply. Organizations managing 21–100 external vendors report the highest exposure levels. Risk concentrates where vendor session visibility is partial and credential reviews are infrequent.

Vendor-related risk, the report concludes, is not primarily driven by vendor behavior — but by how organizations structure and govern vendor access.

Partial vendor visibility is the global norm

Only 43% of organizations report full audit trails of vendor sessions. The majority operate with partial visibility, creating compliance and forensic blind spots.

Absence of vendor visibility correlates with universal incident exposure.

Zero trust adoption delivers measurable impact

Zero Trust depth shows a clear stepwise relationship with:

  • Higher session visibility
  • Improved vendor auditability
  • Faster enablement speeds
  • Reduced incident volatility

Organizations implementing all five core Zero Trust principles reach visibility levels not achieved through tooling alone.

Governance and IT/OT alignment predict outcomes

Nearly 70% of organizations now operate under shared IT/OT governance models — the structure most consistently associated with balanced security, operational speed, and auditability.

Where alignment weakens, vendor-related incident exposure nearly triples.

Tool fragmentation erodes control

Most organizations rely on multiple parallel access tools — VPNs, OEM utilities, PAM solutions, and emerging OT-dedicated platforms.

Session visibility declines measurably as tool stack complexity increases. Organizations using three or more remote access tools report lower visibility and higher friction than those operating consolidated environments.

Consolidation momentum is accelerating

The data shows a clear market shift toward identity-centric, unified OT remote access platforms.

Compared to non-users, organizations using OT-dedicated platforms report:

  • Higher average session visibility
  • Stronger full audit trail rates
  • Lower incident exposure
  • Faster vendor enablement
  • Stronger IT/OT alignment

The report concludes that consolidation is not about replacing every legacy tool, but about governing access through a single operational control layer.

A structural shift, not a tactical upgrade

Remote access has evolved from a convenience tool to a strategic control surface for industrial operations.

As regulatory pressure intensifies and vendor ecosystems expand, the industry is converging toward:

  • Federated vendor control models
  • Shared IT/OT governance
  • Identity-based access enforcement
  • Time-bound, session-based permissions
  • Unified auditability

The report describes this transition as a move from fragmented, reactive access to standardized, secure, policy-driven remote operations.

About the report

The State of Industrial Remote Access 2026 is based on a global survey of 400 OT, IT, compliance, and executive leaders across manufacturing and critical infrastructure sectors. The study examines architectural patterns, governance models, vendor access practices, Zero Trust adoption, regulatory alignment, and operational performance indicators.

About Secomea

GFL Sports & Entertainment, Inc. Launches as Publicly Traded MMA League, Introducing a New Ownership Model for Athletes and Fans

GFL Partners with DealMaker to Launch $5 Million Equity Raise and Announces Senior Leadership and Advisory Appointments

LAS VEGAS, March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — GFL Sports & Entertainment, Inc. (OTC: GFLE) today announced its public market launch and unveiled the next phase of development for the Global Fight League (GFL), a new professional MMA organization built on a shared-ownership model. Through a collaboration with DealMaker, a registered broker-dealer and investor platform, GFL is opening a public equity raise of up to $5 million, creating a transparent structure designed to align athletes, fans, and partners through participation in the league’s long-term growth.

As a publicly traded company, GFL is introducing a model that expands access to ownership beyond traditional private capital. At a time when institutional investors are acquiring stakes in professional sports franchises and leagues, GFL is structuring participation to allow a broader base of stakeholders — including athletes and fans — to invest in a global sports property.

GFLE Executive Chairman Vince Hesser said, “The sports industry has evolved into one of the most valuable investment sectors in the world, yet public access to ownership has been limited. The Global Fight League is building a transparent structure that aligns performance, participation, and long-term value creation across athletes, fans, and investors.”

Hesser is a seasoned executive and private investor with more than $2 billion in transactions across sports, media, real estate, and international business, including leadership roles spanning more than 100 MMA events.

GFLE has entered into an alliance with DealMaker to provide the regulatory, technical, and investor-engagement infrastructure required to support a public capital raise, compliance, and investor relations. Trusted by organizations such as the Green Bay Packers, DealMaker has raised more than $2.3 billion in capital across more than 900 offerings and is accelerating a new model of community-driven sports investment.

GFLE also announced that Jeffrey Pollack has joined the organization as Senior Advisor to help guide the GFL’s strategy, governance, and growth.

“GFL opens ownership to fans and athletes from the start,” said Pollack. “The massive influx of institutional capital into sports reflects a multi-trillion dollar opportunity for investors around the world. We believe the athletes and audience that power the industry also deserve access to ownership in the value they help create.”

Pollack brings more than 25 years of senior leadership experience driving innovation and growth at the league and team level. He was President and CEO of the XFL, and has held senior positions across the NFL, NBA, NASCAR, Professional Bull Riders, and World Series of Poker.

Pollack is assembling GFL’s Business Advisory Council, which initially includes: Kevin LeGrett, former President of iHeart Sports and West Coast Division President at iHeartMedia; Basil DeVito, a veteran sports and television executive with senior leadership experience across the WWE, XFL, Breeders’ Cup, and NBA; Laura Gentile, former ESPN Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer and founder of espnW; Bruce Smith, founder of Hydrow and CEO of Sensor Bio; and Gareb Shamus, founder of Comic Con and co-founder of the International Fight League.

GFL is founded on a vision developed by Darren Owen, a longtime MMA executive, promoter, and producer. As Commissioner of the Global Fight League, Owen’s primary focus will be competition, event production, and athlete relations.

Owen has started to establish the league’s Athlete Performance & Wellness Council, bringing together elite fighters and trusted industry voices to help guide standards for the athlete experience. The council includes Tyron Woodley, Benson Henderson, Ilima-Lei Macfarlane, Cat Zingano, Héctor Lombard, Jessica Aguilar, legendary broadcaster Mike Goldberg, MMA athlete-relations icon Burt Watson, and Dr. Jen Welter, a leader in athlete psychology and mental wellness.

“GFL was built to put athletes first on fight night and throughout their entire career,” said Owen. “From performance and wellness to preparation, recovery, and long-term financial planning, our commitment is to support and respect fighters as people and professionals.”

As part of its formal launch, GFL also announced that Scott Parker has been named the league’s Chief Marketing Officer. Parker is a marketing leader with senior experience at PepsiCo, Disney/ESPN, TuneIn, and the XFL, including the launch of the SEC Network and the College Football Playoff.

GFL is building toward a 2026 debut season, with additional details to be announced as the equity raise progresses over the next four to six months. The league plans to launch with four teams in New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and London, featuring a unified team structure in which men and women compete side by side as part of the same organization.

GSMA Calls for Regulatory Readiness for Direct-to-User LEO Satellite Services

New paper recommends developing adaptive and proportionate regulatory frameworks for Direct-to-User LEO satellite services

BARCELONA, Spain, March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A new era of Satellite services, enabled by Low-Earth-Orbit constellations, requires a fresh approach to regulation worldwide, according to a position paper released today by the GSMA.

 

 

The paper, ‘Regulatory Preparedness for Satellite Services’, urges policymakers to take proactive steps to modernise regulatory frameworks and outlines five guiding principles to promote innovation, ensure consistent user protection across technologies, safeguard essential public-interest needs, support investment across communications networks, and build consumer trust.

John Giusti, Chief Regulatory Officer, GSMA, said: “As LEO satellite services rapidly advance, they are transforming global connectivity, expanding coverage to underserved communities, strengthening resilience, and enabling new D2D services. Growing partnerships between mobile and satellite providers are accelerating innovation and enhancing the overall connectivity experience for users.

As these capabilities scale, governments are increasingly considering the need for greater regulatory alignment. Establishing comparable requirements for mobile and satellite providers delivering similar services will help ensure consistent consumer protection, support sustainable long-term investment, and safeguard national sovereignty — all while delivering greater value, quality, and trust for users.”

The GSMA paper comes at a time when new satellites are being launched, and operators are expanding into new markets and services. As LEO constellations scale rapidly, forward-looking regulatory frameworks will be essential to maximise the potential benefits of these new technologies.

Five core principles to guide regulatory frameworks

The paper sets out five principles to guide modern regulatory frameworks:

  1. Transparency and Predictability: Establish clear, consistent, and accessible rules for market entry so that both new satellite entrants and existing mobile operators can make confident, long-term investment decisions together.
  2. Regulatory Parity: Maintain a level playing field by ensuring that satellite providers face the same legal and regulatory obligations as mobile operators.
  3. Harmonisation: Align national policies with regional and international standards to reduce regulatory fragmentation, making it easier and more efficient for global satellite constellations to operate across borders.
  4. Collaboration and Consultation: Maintain open dialogue between governments, regulators, and industry to ensure that new policies are evidence-based, inclusive of all stakeholders and reflect market realities.
  5. Balance Innovation with Regulation: Support technological growth while ensuring satellite operators comply with national interests, such as consumer protection, data privacy and national security.

Huawei Releases 115 Industrial Intelligence Showcases with Global Customers; and Launches 22 Industrial Intelligence Solutions with Partners at MWC 2026

BARCELONA, Spain, March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — During MWC Barcelona 2026, Huawei released 115 industrial intelligence showcases, together with its customers, during Industrial Digital and Intelligent Transformation Summit 2026. The summit, titled Advancing Industrial All Intelligence, was held by Huawei to explore new practices in industrial intelligence with its customers, partners, and peers. Besides, Huawei announced the launch of upgrades to its SHAPE 2.0 partner framework. Huawei also showcased 22 new industrial intelligence solutions with partners, for the electric power, manufacturing and retail, finance, transportation, oil and gas, ISP, media, public service, and smart city sectors.

Huawei proposed the ACT Pathway: A replicable intelligence framework

AI technologies have advanced rapidly over the last year, with reasoning models and agentic workflows both maturing, and physical AI beginning to truly take off. This has allowed AI tools to begin entering core production scenarios and helped applications move from pilots to large-scale use. AI agents can also now better understand and interact with the physical world, and are now capable of making decisions independently.

Huawei introduced the ACT Pathway, and three key steps specified in the ACT framework were mandatory for achieving comprehensive industrial intelligence. The first step is “assessing high-value scenarios”. Huawei has helped customers identify over 1,000 core production scenarios where AI can play a big role. The second is “calibrating AI models with high-quality vertical data”. Huawei has built a 6-layer AI security framework to ensure every stage of the AI lifecycle is secure and trustworthy. The third is “transforming business operations with AI talent”. Talent that understands both industry and AI are needed. Huawei does this by three areas, including hands-on practice programs, CANN open-source communities, vertical industry communities on Huawei Cloud, and ICT Academies.

Huawei worked with customers to release global industrial intelligence showcases

During the summit, A number of Huawei’s customers joined on stage to launch 115 global showcases for industrial intelligence, including executives from Eskom, Shandong Port Group, Converge ICT, HM Hospitales, and PetroChina (Beijing)’s Digital Intelligent Research Institute, CNPC, providing reference for organizations of various sectors to embark on their journey towards intelligence.
