Carrier Awarded Security of Tech Award at Data Centre World London 2026 for Nlyte Device Management

Carrier today announced it has been awarded the Security of Tech Award at Data Centre World (DCW) London 2026 for Nlyte® Device Management, part of the Carrier QuantumLeap™ integrated data center solutions offering. The award recognizes an industry-leading platform designed to secure one of the most critical and historically overlooked elements of modern data center infrastructure; intelligent rack-mounted power distribution units (PDUs). Carrier is a part of Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions. 

As data centers become increasingly distributed and digitally connected, intelligent PDUs have evolved from passive hardware into networked endpoints that require the same level of cybersecurity rigor as traditional IT assets. Nlyte Device Management addresses this growing risk by delivering centralized, automated and scalable protection across multi-vendor device environments, helping organizations strengthen their security posture and operational confidence at the infrastructure edge. 

“As part of our Carrier QuantumLeap strategy, we are focused on delivering integrated, software-driven intelligence across the entire data center lifecycle,” said Christian Senu, Vice President, Data Centers & Mega projects, Carrier. “Nlyte Device Management extends enterprise-grade security directly to intelligent power infrastructure, helping to close a critical gap in how data center operators protect the systems that power the digital world.” 

Nlyte Device Management integrates advanced security capabilities directly into the firmware lifecycle of intelligent PDUs and other edge-connected devices. The platform enables bulk firmware update automation, centralized policy enforcement and granular device configuration across leading PDU vendors. By embedding security controls into device operations at scale, organizations can reduce misconfiguration risk, limit attack surfaces and support consistent security practices across diverse environments. 

The solution’s vendor-agnostic architecture and real-time monitoring capabilities are designed to address non-traditional attack surfaces. Features such as anomaly detection, automated discovery of unauthorized devices, firmware integrity validation and compliance-ready audit logging provide a layered defense model designed to help prevent unauthorized access and mitigate emerging cyber threats. 

“This award reinforces Carrier’s commitment to redefining data center security through Carrier QuantumLeap data center offerings,” added Enzo Greco, President, Nlyte Software. “By securing the widely deployed yet often under-protected devices in the data center, Nlyte Device Management helps set a higher benchmark for protecting critical infrastructure at scale.”
