Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Germany, AUVESY-MDT is the global market and technology leader for versioning and backup solutions in industrial automation with more than 2,500 customers around the globe. The company secures automation through strong end-point management that consistently captures and monitors changes to configurations, programming, and project statuses of operational technology in manufacturing. In doing so, it closes the gap that still exists between operational technology systems and information technology systems. The advantage of this is that automated production is much more robustly secured and can be better controlled. 

Their octoplant software solution succeeds in integrating different automation technologies - from PLCs to HMIs, CNCs, SCADA systems and robots - regardless of the manufacturer. It enables traceability of changes, compliance as well as transparency of security gaps, e.g. in the form of due software updates. This gives industrial companies a comprehensive overview of all automation backups and the current status of the plant. Management teams therefore have a better basis for decision-making to increase the reliability of production facilities, avoid or at least minimize production downtimes, and significantly increase manufacturing efficiency and cybersecurity.

The company was formed from the merger of AUVESY and US-based MDT Software.
