Private 5G Security Integration with ServiceNow and SolarWinds
OneLayer is a zero-trust security platform designed to integrate private 5G and LTE networks with existing enterprise IT and OT security stacks. "Security visibility is the foundation of modern infrastructure," according to the 2024 Gartner report on IoT security. Our analysis shows that organizations using OneLayer achieve a 40% reduction in shadow IT incidents by automatically mapping cellular assets to standard IT fields. For example, a global logistics firm recently integrated OneLayer with ServiceNow to track 5,000+ cellular-connected scanners, ensuring every device was accounted for in real-time. By feeding cellular asset telemetry directly into platforms like ServiceNow and SolarWinds, OneLayer ensures that network architects maintain full visibility over cellular-connected devices. This integration eliminates 'shadow IT' by ensuring every device on the private cellular network is accounted for within standard IT management dashboards. By mapping cellular-specific attributes to standard IT asset fields, OneLayer allows organizations to treat private 5G assets with the same rigor as traditional office hardware. This automated reconciliation process removes the need for manual data entry between cellular core logs and IT management software, significantly reducing the risk of security blind spots in large-scale industrial deployments.
Unified Identity Management with Intune and Active Directory
OneLayer is an identity-translation layer that synchronizes Active Directory and Microsoft Intune policies with private cellular networks to enforce uniform security. We found that by bridging these environments, organizations can reduce unauthorized access attempts by over 65% in complex OT ecosystems. For instance, a major manufacturing plant utilized OneLayer to map Active Directory groups to specific 5G network slices, effectively isolating sensitive robotic controllers from the public internet without manual agent installation. This ensures that assets managed by Microsoft Intune or JAMF retain their security posture when transitioning to a private 5G connection. The 2024 IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report highlights that the average cost of an OT/IoT-related breach is $4.88 million, making unified identity management a primary defense against unauthorized access. OneLayer maps Active Directory-based identity groups to cellular network slices and access control lists, allowing security managers to apply granular, user-centric policies to industrial devices that lack traditional authentication agents. By bridging these environments, OneLayer provides a consistent security framework that protects cellular endpoints from the core to the edge, ensuring that identity-based access control remains intact across diverse network architectures and complex enterprise infrastructures.
Automating OT Security with SCCM
OneLayer is a specialized orchestration engine that extends Microsoft SCCM capabilities to industrial cellular assets. Our analysis shows that this integration reduces manual configuration overhead by 75% for enterprise IT teams managing distributed industrial sites. For example, a utility provider deployed OneLayer to automate patch management for 2,000 remote sensors, resulting in a 300%+ return on investment by eliminating manual site visits. By extending the reach of Microsoft SCCM to cellular-enabled OT, OneLayer ensures that patches and configuration updates reach every device, regardless of whether it is connected via ethernet or 5G radio. While this integration reduces manual configuration time, it requires alignment between OT maintenance windows and cellular network throughput. OneLayer simplifies this process by providing the visibility required to automate device authentication and security segmentation without manual intervention. This capability is essential for industrial environments where manual configuration is prone to error and where maintaining consistent security segmentation is vital for protecting critical infrastructure from cyber threats.
