OT & SCADA Security Assessment and Hardening

Prevent catastrophic downtime and safety incidents by securing your SCADA and industrial control networks before attackers or failures do.

Our leadership brings over 15 years of experience in high-security environments

Our OT & Scada Services

Industrial Asset Discovery & Mapping

We create a complete, real-world map of all PLCs, HMIs, historians, engineering workstations, sensors, and control network assets—including shadow systems and undocumented connections—so nothing critical is left unprotected.

ICS Protocol & Communication Path Review

We review protocols such as Modbus, DNP3, OPC, Profinet, and IEC standards to identify unauthenticated or unsafe command paths that could enable manipulation or disruption of physical processes.

Monitoring & Anomaly Detection Strategy

We define how to detect abnormal behavior in OT networks using passive monitoring and safe telemetry, enabling early warning without interfering with control systems.

OT Network Architecture Review & Segmentation Design

We analyze trust boundaries between IT, OT, and safety systems and design secure segmentation zones and conduits that limit blast radius while preserving operational workflows and vendor access.

Remote Access & Vendor Access Hardening

We secure VPNs, jump hosts, remote maintenance paths, and third-party access to ensure suppliers and integrators cannot become a backdoor into production environments.

Safety & Availability Risk Analysis

We explicitly model how cyber incidents could translate into safety events, environmental damage, or production outages, and prioritize controls based on real-world operational impact.

SCADA & Control System Security Assessment

We assess SCADA servers, control applications, and management systems for configuration weaknesses, insecure protocols, and unsafe access paths—without introducing risk to live operations.

Identity, Privilege & Engineering Workstation Controls

We design and implement least-privilege access models for operators, engineers, and maintenance staff, reducing the risk of accidental or malicious changes to critical processes.

Hardening & Configuration Guidance

We provide concrete, system-specific hardening steps for firewalls, switches, SCADA servers, engineering stations, and critical hosts—prioritized by risk and operational feasibility.

Our Engagement Methodology

Comprehensive security assessments tailored to your infrastructure and business needs

1. Executive Alignment & Scoping

Objectives, safety, constraints​

​

✅ Define improved segmentation and trust model

2. Architecture & & Asset Visibility

Understand the intended design​

​

✅ Review architecture, diagrams, and documentation
✅ Perform passive asset discovery
✅ Map zones, conduits, and trust boundaries
✅ Identify shadow systems and hidden dependencies​

5. Detection & Resilience Design

See and contain incidents

​

✅ Assess current OT visibility and monitoring
✅ Identify detection and response gaps
✅ Design safe, passive monitoring approach
✅ Define containment and recovery strategy

3. Threat & Risk Modeling

Model real-world failure scenarios

​

✅ Identify realistic adversaries and scenarios
