OT Cyber Defense & Engineering
Network Security
With network security, you can manage the OT attack surface, block unauthorized communication, prevent data leakage, and detect anomalies at the network level.
Secure Asset Management
With Asset Management in OT, you ensure asset visibility, detect missing or new assets, manage patches, establish a base for effective risk assessment, and support asset obsolescence management.
OT Asset Management
Comprehensive tracking and management of all OT assets, including hardware, software, and network devices. This process involves maintaining a real-time inventory of assets, identifying any unauthorized devices, and ensuring that each asset complies with security protocols.
Vulnerability and Patch Management
This service regularly identifies vulnerabilities within OT assets and ensures timely application of security patches. Due to the sensitive nature of OT environments, patches must be carefully managed to avoid disrupting operations, making this a specialized process that balances security with operational stability.
OT Threat Detection and Response
A set of tools designed to detect potential threats using various host- and network-based technologies. These systems alert security teams, providing them with the opportunity to investigate and respond for possible cybersecurity incidents.
OT CSOC (Cyber Security Operations Center) - SIEM and XDR
This service involves setting up a dedicated OT CSOC equipped with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and Extended Detection and Response (XDR) capabilities. SIEM collects and analyzes logs and alerts across the OT network, while XDR provides cross-layer detection, monitoring multiple data sources for comprehensive threat response.
OT Network Anomaly Detection
This solution uses advanced algorithms and machine learning to identify anomalies in network traffic that may indicate a cyber threat. Establishing a baseline of normal activity, it quickly spots deviations that could signal malicious activity, allowing for a rapid response.
OT Threat Intelligence and Situational Awareness
This aspect gathers intelligence on potential threats and provides situational awareness for OT environments. It keeps teams informed about emerging threats, attacker tactics, and known vulnerabilities relevant to OT, empowering them to take proactive defensive measures.
OT SecOps (Security Operations)
A set of activities and processes involved in the day-to-day management of an OT environment, including real-time threat monitoring, application whitelisting to ensure only approved software operates, and securing the use of removable media within the OT environment.
Endpoint Detection and Response
Monitors endpoints (e.g., workstations, servers, and control devices) for suspicious activities and threats, providing real-time detection and response capabilities. In OT environments, this helps secure endpoints without interfering with critical processes.
Application Whitelisting
Restricts execution to pre-approved applications only, preventing unauthorized or malicious software from running on OT systems. This technique ensures only trusted applications are used within the OT environment, mitigating the risk of malware or unauthorized software.
Removable Media Scanning Kiosk
These are secure kiosks designed for scanning removable media (such as USB drives) before they’re connected to OT systems. This reduces the risk of introducing malware from external devices, a common vector for cyberattacks in OT environments.
Secure Access
A set of policies, procedures, and technical controls that govern the use of system resources to ensure the system can be accessed by authorized users, programs, processes, and other systems.
Secure Remote Access
Provides a secure framework for remote connectivity to OT systems, particularly essential for remote monitoring, maintenance, and support. Secure remote access solutions include multi-factor authentication (MFA), encrypted VPNs, and session monitoring to prevent unauthorized access.
Privileged Access Management (PAM)
Manages and controls access for privileged users within the OT environment. PAM restricts access based on user roles, monitors privileged sessions, and logs activities to detect misuse of permissions. This is vital in OT, where unauthorized actions by privileged users could disrupt operations or lead to severe security breaches.
