The real strength comes when both sides work together. With clear separation, smart access control, firewalls and continuous monitoring, we give you the confidence that your entire system is secure.

Independent assessments of IT and OT security are essential, as each domain requires distinct strategies, tools, and risk considerations to ensure effective protection.

Principles, technologies and tools

Protecting data and system (IT)

The CIA Triad is a foundational model in cybersecurity, guiding the development of security policies, vulnerability assessments, and the design of effective information security systems. It represents three core principles:

  • Confidentiality: Ensures that data is accessible only to authorized individuals.
  • Integrity: Guarantees the accuracy, consistency, and trustworthiness of data.
  • Availability: Ensures that systems and information are accessible to authorized users when needed.

These principles form the basis for securing digital assets across all cybersecurity domains.

Securing industrial automation (OT)

IEC 62443 is an international cybersecurity standard for Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS). It provides a comprehensive framework for securing Operational Technology (OT) environments, addressing the roles of asset owners, system integrators, and product suppliers.

The standard is structured into four parts:

  • General concepts
  • Policies and procedures
  • System-level requirements
  • Component-level requirements

It promotes a risk-based, defense-in-depth approach to protect industrial systems from cyber threats while ensuring safety, reliability, and operational continuity.

Recommended technologies and tools

  • Firewalls and Intrusion Detection Systems: To block and monitor unauthorized traffic
  • Antivirus and Endpoint Protection: To secure devices like laptops, phones, and workstations.
  • Encryption and Cryptography: To protect sensitive data from unauthorized access.
  • Time-Controlled Physical Key Locks: To regulate external access to OT systems, ensuring secure and controlled connectivity to the operational environment.
