About - OA Technologies

Mission

OA Technologies mission is to restore a foundation for the cyber security of the digital infrastructure we all depend upon by applying true Zero Trust cybersecurity principles to routers, networking appliances and other critical smart hardware.

Why This Matters

Over 90% of routers made for small-to-midsize businesses, homes and offices in the USA are currently manufactured in China or nations in their sphere of espionage – and come pre-compromised or with deliberate baked in vulnerabilities.

Even if you put aside the geo-political threats, the issue goes deeper than that. In the Consumer, SMB and SME space:

Router OEMs are not responsible or accountable for cybersecurity – and certainly not rewarded by the market for it.
Cyber Security solution providers are not responsible for the security of hardware they depend upon.

The result is the mess we are all in now.

At Faction Networks, we understand that if you cannot trust the router you are running on, then your Zero Trust Networking (ZTNA) firmware and software is worthless. Just about everybody else in the cybersecurity industry just looks away and ignores this problem. We are solving it.

What We Are Doing About It

In our joint venture with Davolink, Faction Networks is applying Zero Trust to networking hardware. There will be two product lines:

Faction Pods and Portals – to be released in Q1 2026. A unique secure networking appliance to protect vulnerable OT and IOT devices and machines without having to change existing routers and network software, with “scan and click” deployment in minutes and minimal to no IT support required.
Zero Trust Routers – targeted for Q3 2026. A line-up of true Zero Trust routers based on Davolink’s commercial product line with “Faction Inside” for OT and IOT cybersecurity.

Pods and Portals are ‘adopted’ into a totally decentralized and secure private Faction Network via an out-of-band method that is impervious to cloud attack. The result is a combined solution for Zero Trust Security for IT, OT & IOT that has no visibility or exposure to Cloud attacks and can deployed and managed with minimal or no IT support.

While Made-in-America and secure supply chain are critical requirements for this new foundation, they are not sufficient. OA Technologies will apply Zero Trust principles on an ongoing basis that sets a new gold standard for Cyber Assurance working together with ORION and Assured Information Security (AIS) and ORION – and more partners to come.
