Typical Industry Pitfalls and Challenges

Over the years, we’ve uncovered recurring challenges and issues within the industry – many of which may already resonate with you.

  • Organisations jumping to a technology solution before anything else
  • Taking a blanket approach to OT security controls
  • Lack of communication across IT & OT
  • Lack of a strong business case for OT security
  • Organisations can’t quantify a true cyber security risk position
  • Underestimating the required effort to manage cyber threats
The Industrial Cyber Security Principle Method™

Our unique methodology is encapsulated in six foundational principles. This is the recipe for delivering a world-class industrial cyber security outcome. Each principle builds on the other to provide a comprehensive, strategic, and effective OT security posture that not only addresses immediate threats but also fortifies your operations against future cyber incidents.

Business-Driven

Industrial cyber security must be aligned with the primary business requirements of your organisation.

Risk-Based

OT security decisions must be tailored to the specific risks associated with each system or subsystem rather than implementing uniform security measures across all areas.

Enterprise-Wide

Adopt a holistic perspective across an organisation to enhance long-term value and maximise investment returns.

Methodical

Be meticulous and systematic with your OT security, ensuring actions are executed in the correct sequence for optimal effectiveness.

OT Security-Focused

Industrial cyber security must have a 100% OT focus, leveraging specialised OT security teams that adhere strictly to industry-specific standards and certifications.

OT Security-Compliance

Achieve and then maintain compliance with the necessary regulatory frameworks governing industrial cyber security.
