Actelis Networks Receives Significant Expansion Order from Major European Natural Gas Operator, Continuing Critical Infrastructure Modernization

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Jan. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Actelis Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:ASNS) ("Actelis" or the "Company"), a market leader in cyber-hardened, rapid deployment networking solutions for IoT and broadband applications, today announced it has received an expansion order of approximately $150,000 from the major European natural gas transmission system operator with whom it announced its initial deployment in October 2023. This significant follow-on order demonstrates customer satisfaction and further validates Actelis' technology for critical energy infrastructure applications, while supporting the operator's ongoing efforts to maintain and upgrade to the highest security standards required for essential homeland security infrastructure.

The customer operates a high-pressure natural gas pipeline network stretching over thousands of kilometers in a large European country. As energy infrastructure has become increasingly recognized as a critical component of national and homeland security, operators face mounting pressure to modernize monitoring systems while implementing the highest levels of cyber protection. Actelis' cyber and temperature hardened networking solutions enable the operator to extend instant, fiber-grade connectivity over existing network infrastructure to monitor operational data across even the most remote locations, supporting quality control, system maintenance, and real-time measurement of natural gas characteristics including tank levels, inventory, temperature, and flow.

In recent years, the energy sector has faced heightened cyber threats targeting critical infrastructure. Actelis solutions offer advanced end-to-end encryption protocols at the device, transmission, and management levels to help protect against hacking, jamming, and denial of service attacks. The Company's hybrid fiber-copper technology delivers fiber-grade performance while dramatically reducing deployment time and cost compared to fiber-only alternatives – enabling rapid modernization of legacy infrastructure without extended construction timelines.

"This expansion order validates our position in the critical energy infrastructure market and demonstrates the value customers derive from our solutions in protecting and modernizing essential homeland security systems," said Tuvia Barlev, Chairman and CEO of Actelis Networks. "Energy networks represent vital national infrastructure that requires the highest levels of monitoring, security, and reliability. Our ability to deliver cyber-hardened, rapid deployment connectivity over existing infrastructure allows operators to achieve modernization goals efficiently while meeting stringent security requirements. This follow-on order reflects our customer's confidence in our technology and their commitment to expanding deployment across their network."

The expansion deployment is being executed in collaboration with Actelis' long-standing European partner, denk-stein:net GmbH, based in Germany, which serves customers across Germany, Austria, Hungary, and Switzerland.
