IT and Cybersecurity for Maquiladoras in Northern Mexico
BITS supports foreign-owned plants in Chihuahua, Ciudad Juárez and across northern Mexico. We run the network, protect the plant floor and report to your corporate team in English, from an office a short drive away.
What plant and corporate IT teams deal with
Downtime costs shipments
A network outage or ransomware incident on the line delays orders to customers across the border.
OT and IT grew up separately
PLCs, HMIs and office PCs often share one flat network that was never designed for today's threats.
Corporate audits keep coming
Headquarters and customers ask for evidence of controls, mapped to frameworks like NIST CSF or ISO 27001.
Lean local IT teams
One or two people support hundreds of users and several shifts, with little time left for security.
