Protecting the Backbone of Industry: Comprehensive IIoT/OT Security Solutions

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Operational Technology (OT) systems are the backbone of many critical industries, from manufacturing to energy and utilities. While these technologies bring tremendous operational efficiency, they also introduce significant cybersecurity risks if not properly secured.

Bramfitt Technology Labs (BTL) offers an IIoT/OT Security Architecture Review service designed to evaluate and enhance the security of your industrial systems. Our focus is on protecting your operational environments from cyber threats, ensuring the integrity, availability, and safety of your critical infrastructure.

Tailored Security Strategies for Industrial Environments

BTL’s IIoT/OT Security Architecture Review service is tailored to address the unique challenges of industrial environments. We provide a comprehensive analysis of your existing security framework and offer strategic recommendations to fortify your defences against evolving threats.

Our service includes:

  • In-depth security assessment: Reviewing the security architecture of your IIoT and OT environments, including control systems, PLCs, SCADA networks, and other industrial components.

  • Network segmentation strategy: Designing and implementing network segmentation techniques to isolate critical assets and minimise the impact of potential breaches.

  • Threat modelling and risk analysis: Identifying vulnerabilities specific to industrial systems and evaluating potential attack vectors to understand their impact on your operations.
  • Protocol security review: Analysing the security of communication protocols used in your industrial networks, such as Modbus, OPC-UA, and DNP3, to identify weaknesses that could be exploited by attackers.
  • Zero Trust approach for OT: Integrating Zero Trust principles into your OT security strategy, ensuring that every device, user, and connection is continuously verified and monitored.
  • Compliance and standards alignment: Ensuring that your security measures meet industry regulations and standards like IEC 62443, NERC CIP, and NIST SP 800-82 to protect your operations and maintain compliance.

How our IIoT / OT Security Architecture Reviews work

1. Initial Scoping and Assessment

We start by conducting a comprehensive analysis of your IIoT and OT systems, identifying critical assets, communication protocols, and current security measures.

2. Security Architecture Review

Our experts perform a detailed review of your existing security framework, evaluating its effectiveness in protecting against known threats and vulnerabilities specific to industrial environments.

3. Threat Modelling and Risk Analysis

We create a threat model to simulate potential attack scenarios, highlighting areas where your security defences may be compromised and need enhancement.

4. Network Segmentation Strategy

Designing a robust network architecture that includes segmentation to limit lateral movement within your systems, reducing the risk of widespread impact from cyberattacks.

5. Zero Trust Integration

We implement Zero Trust principles tailored to your OT environment, ensuring that all interactions within your industrial networks are continuously monitored and authenticated.

6. Compliance Alignment

Aligning your security architecture with relevant industry standards and regulations, ensuring that your infrastructure meets all necessary guidelines for operational safety and data protection.

7. Comprehensive Reporting and Recommendations

Delivering a detailed report with clear findings, actionable recommendations, and a strategic roadmap to enhance your IIoT and OT security posture.

8. Ongoing Support and Optimisation

BTL provides continuous support and guidance as you implement the recommended changes, ensuring your industrial systems stay secure against emerging threats.
