IT That Keeps Production Running

Manufacturing depends on uptime. TotalCareIT delivers reliable, secure IT infrastructure that protects production systems, supply chain data, and proprietary designs—so the line never stops because of technology.

IT Challenges Manufacturers Face

As manufacturing becomes more connected and data-driven, the stakes for IT reliability and security have never been higher.

OT/IT Convergence

Production floor systems increasingly connect to business networks. Without proper segmentation and security, a network breach can halt production lines.

Ransomware Risk

Manufacturing is the #1 targeted industry for ransomware. Attackers know production downtime creates massive pressure to pay.

Supply Chain Security

Customers and partners increasingly require cybersecurity certifications. Proprietary designs, pricing, and supplier data must be protected.

Legacy Systems

Critical production software often runs on outdated operating systems that can't be easily patched, creating security vulnerabilities across the network.

How TotalCareIT Serves Manufacturers

We understand the intersection of production technology and business IT, and we design solutions that protect both.

🏭

Network Segmentation

Properly segment production floor (OT) systems from business networks to prevent cross-contamination while maintaining necessary data flow.

🛡️

Industrial Cybersecurity

Multi-layered security designed for manufacturing environments, including endpoint protection, network monitoring, and threat detection across IT and OT.

💾

Backup & Recovery

Verified backups for ERP data, production configurations, CAD files, and business systems with tested recovery plans that minimize downtime.

📊

ERP & MES Support

IT infrastructure support for your ERP, MES, and production management systems. We ensure the underlying technology is reliable and performant.

🔧

Legacy System Protection

Secure legacy production systems that can't be updated by isolating them, monitoring access, and implementing compensating controls.

📋

Compliance Support

Meet customer and supply chain cybersecurity requirements including NIST, CMMC, and industry-specific standards for manufacturing.

Compliance for Manufacturing

Manufacturers face growing cybersecurity requirements from customers, insurers, and regulators.

NIST Cybersecurity Framework — Industry-standard framework for managing cybersecurity risk

CMMC — Required for manufacturers in the defense supply chain

ITAR/EAR — Export control compliance for defense and dual-use technology manufacturers

ISO 27001 — Information security management system certification support

Cyber Insurance — Meet the controls insurers require for adequate manufacturing coverage

Supply Chain Requirements — Meet customer-mandated cybersecurity standards for your contracts

Frequently Asked Questions

We focus on the IT infrastructure that supports manufacturing operations—network segmentation, security, backup, and business systems. We work alongside your OT teams and equipment vendors to ensure IT and OT work together securely without interfering with production systems.
We isolate legacy systems through network segmentation, control access with strict firewall rules, monitor all traffic to and from these systems, and implement compensating controls. This lets you keep running critical production software while minimizing the security risk it creates.
We provide IT infrastructure support for all major ERP platforms. While we don't do ERP application development, we ensure the servers, networks, security, and backup infrastructure your ERP runs on is reliable, secure, and performant.
Yes. We connect multiple facilities with secure site-to-site networking, centralized monitoring, and consistent security policies across all locations. Our cloud-first approach means critical business systems are accessible from any site while maintaining proper access controls.
We schedule maintenance during non-production hours, use change management processes that include rollback plans, and test changes in controlled environments before deploying to production. For critical transitions like migrations, we plan phased approaches with clearly defined success criteria at each stage.
