Rkneal is a world-class engineering firm specializing in industrial control systems (ICS), cyber security, and technical services. The Company’s extensive ICS background led to the creation of the Verve Security Center – a cyber security suite that works across the heterogeneous control system environment and supports multiple platforms in a single solution. Verve has been protecting Fortune 500 companies for the past ten years and this effort will continue to accelerate as ICS security becomes an even larger priority for global companies. Aldine partnered with the sponsor Connected Sensor Solutions.
