Copia Automation Joins the OTCC

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WASHINGTON, D.C., September 11, 2026 — The Operational Technology Cybersecurity Coalition (OTCC) is pleased to announce that Copia Automation has joined the coalition, bringing a backup-and-recovery lens to OTCC's growing network of organizations working to secure the nation's critical infrastructure.

Copia builds automated, versioned backups of PLC and controller code, paired with version control designed specifically for the plant floor: baseline integrity, full change history, drift detection, and a verified last known good state operators can restore to with confidence. The company describes its focus as closing the “recovery gap,” the window between when an incident is detected and when operations are fully restored.

“Too much of the conversation around OT security stops at prevention and detection, but the moment that actually determines the outcome of an incident is recovery,” said Tatyana Bolton, Executive Director of OTCC. “Copia has built real depth on that side of the problem, and their perspective rounds out the kind of end-to-end thinking this coalition is trying to bring to policymakers.”

“Collaboration with peers in the industry is paramount to securing our critical infrastructure. Copia’s primary focus is bridging the recovery gap, the space between ‘we’ve detected an incident’ and ‘we’ve successfully restored operations,’” said Adam Gluck, CEO & Founder of Copia Automation. “Through the OTCC, we will be able to provide insights and contributions that can help protect our nation’s critical infrastructure. This mission takes a village; no single organization can do it alone.”

With Copia's addition, OTCC continues to grow a membership spanning the full OT security lifecycle, united around advancing sound public policy for critical infrastructure.
