OT Security

Security for industrial and operational environments, weighed against safety, availability and continuity.

In an operational environment the standard advice is often the wrong advice: you cannot patch a line that is running, and a control that trips a safety system is worse than the risk it was meant to close. We work with organizations running industrial, operational and critical systems, where security has to be balanced against uptime and physical safety rather than layered on top of them.

Business outcome

Better resilience in environments where downtime, safety impact and operational disruption carry consequences well beyond the balance sheet, and a management-level view of where the real exposure sits.

Deliverables

What you actually get. Scoped up front, priced fixed, and delivered by the people who scoped it.

How it runs

Four phases, agreed up front. The arc this practice follows, from the scoping call to the check that it held.

01
Safety constraints first
Scope, environment boundaries, safety constraints and the operational priorities security has to respect are established with the plant, not around it.
02
Review without touching
Architecture, segmentation, remote access and vendor connections are reviewed, and controls validated without interrupting a live process.
03
Report with feasibility
Findings are reported against business impact, safety impact and remediation feasibility, including the fixes that must wait for a maintenance window.
04
Rehearse and validate
Response is rehearsed through drills, and the changes are validated once the window arrives and the work actually lands.
