In today’s world, cyber threats are evolving at an alarming rate, and critical infrastructure operators face unprecedented challenges. Yet, too often, Operational Technology (OT) security is left to outdated or IT-centric strategies that simply don’t fit. That’s where The Industrial Cyber Security Principle Method™ comes in. 

This white paper reveals a proven, structured methodology designed to meet the unique needs of OT environments while addressing the most common industry pitfalls.

The Principle Method is built on six foundational principles:

Business-Driven – Aligning security strategies with your core business objectives.

      Risk-Based – Tailoring security measures to the specific risks of each system.

      Enterprise-Wide – Creating a holistic security approach across your entire organisation.

      Methodical – Taking a systematic, step-by-step approach to implementing OT security.

      OT Security-Focused – Using specialised teams and tools dedicated to OT environments.

      OT Security-Compliant – Meeting and exceeding regulatory frameworks to achieve world-class security.

      This paper outlines how businesses can overcome recurring problems, such as applying blanket security measures, jumping to technology-first solutions, or struggling to quantify risk. With real-world examples, clear actions, and expert insights, you’ll discover a pathway to elevate your industrial cyber security and protect critical assets.

      If you’re looking to future-proof your operations and close the security gaps in your OT systems, this report is your roadmap to achieving confidence, resilience, and compliance.
