Reducing OT Security Risks from Day 1

Continuously monitoring your OT network from day one, from creating an inventory early on, thorough ongoing risk assessment, and better planning of segmentation, enables constant risk reduction.

Continuous Network Monitoring to Reduce Risks

Traditional OT security projects start with an initial assessment of the environment, followed by architectural design and finally, implementation of monitoring, detection and response capabilities that are integrated into the existing security operations. The issue with this approach is that it continues to leave the network exposed to risks, such as external and internal threats and malware infections, for a significant amount of time. The process of analyzing and implementing security solutions can take many months, and when done without proper visibility into the network, it can make steps like network segmentation even harder. Early implementation of network monitoring solutions from day one significantly reduces the risk to the network and eases the assessment, design and implementation of the OT cyber security processes.

Benefits of Continuous Monitoring OT Networks from Day 1
Continuous Visibility and Inventory
Automate asset discovery and inventory management to have ongoing updated accurate view of the OT network and changes made.
Enhance Design and Implementation
Improve processes based on insights from the operational network – ensuring full coverage of needs and reducing errors in execution.
Reduce Security Risk Exposure
Detect suspicious behavior, malware infections and potential attack vectors – taking actions early to raise security level from day one.
Increase Network
Availability
Detect misconfigurations, anomalous network behavior and network failures – reducing the likelihood of operational downtime.
Security Policy
Enforcement
Monitor new connections and activities by internal employees to enforce security policies, increase awareness and improve resilience.
