OT Cybersecurity Resources for Europe

‍

Multiple vendor systems, geographically dispersed plants and hard-to-reach endpoints make it difficult to effectively monitor, manage and protect control networks. Traditional IT security tools don’t work inside these environments, yet IT teams still need to understand what is going on with OT assets to effectively protect them from cyber threats. Because of this, building an effective and sustainable ICS cybersecurity program can feel like an overwhelming task.

Our specialized solution is created by engineers with decades of hands-on OT experience and tailor-made for complex industrial control system environments to protect the availability and safety of these systems, while also simplifying compliance requirements. Easy integrations into the broader security and enterprise ecosystem also empower IT teams with the same visibility, access, and situational awareness that they’re accustomed to on corporate networks.

Explore the benefits and use cases that our solution can help you with, including:

• Creating a solid foundation to apply effective OT security controls using an asset-centric methodology.
• Mitigating cyber threats quickly with actionable security data from vulnerability monitoring.
• Enhancing IT and OT collaboration with seamless, API-enabled integrations.
• Automating standards and regulatory compliance with pre-built policies and reporting templates for standards such as NIST, NERC CIP, NEI and the NIS Directive.

What does it mean to truly understand the OT environment? It begins with conducting an asset inventory to identify all OT assets within your environment. However, simply knowing what systems are present is not enough to fully understand and address security risks.

Many asset inventory or "visibility" solutions in the OT space stop at identifying only basic device information such as type, make, and model. To truly know your OT security risks and actively address them, you need deeper-level configuration details such as software versions, vulnerabilities, patches, firewall rules, and PLC key switch positions.

You also need to know when these configurations change. Keeping track of configuration changes allows you to quickly identify and respond to any unexpected or unauthorized alterations, reducing the risk of a security breach or compliance violation.
