A power generation company aimed to advance its IT/OT convergence efforts through a comprehensive security review and recommendations.
Challenges
The organization sought clarity on the following critical areas:
- Vulnerability assessment of internet-facing assets.
- IT-OT operations audit, including on-site physical assessment.
- Visibility into OT networks and risk assessment from an IT-OT perspective.
- Cybersecurity threat modelling tailored to industrial operations.
The Solution
Our team conducted detailed site visits and interviews with both IT and OT stakeholders. We also facilitated a full-day cybersecurity threat modelling workshop to assess potential risks.
A comprehensive security audit report was delivered, covering:
- VA/PT results with actionable insights.
- OT-specific findings with a clear risk score (scale of 5).
- Identified automation asset anomalies requiring urgent fixes.
- Blind spots in the OT network and corresponding threat vectors.
- Current security posture analysis based on control coverage.
- Security scores are assigned to each existing security control.
- A mapped-out risk profile and step-by-step remediation plan.
Outcomes
The engagement resulted in a strategic security roadmap aligned with Industry 4.0 readiness.
It is clearly defined:
- "Must-have" controls to meet critical compliance and risk standards.
- "Nice-to-have" controls for improved long-term maturity.
The company is now better prepared for Industry 4.0 integration with improved visibility, risk awareness, and security governance.
