OT Security Gap Assessment

Prioritize actions based on IEC 62443



  Systematically assess organizational, procedural and technical OT security


  Identify security gaps and opportunities for improvement based on IEC 62443


  Prioritize specific measures according to risk and the need for action




You would like to understand where your OT security stands today and prioritize measures effectively?

Production environments that have evolved over many years are being expanded with new systems, interfaces, remote access and digital processes. This increases the demands on technical safeguards – responsibilities and processes also need to keep pace.


Individual areas are often already well protected, but an overall picture of the level of OT security is missing. As a result, it remains unclear where significant gaps exist and which measures should be implemented first. The OT Security Gap Assessment provides precisely this transparency.


Based on IEC 62443, we systematically assess organizational, procedural and technical security measures in OT, highlight gaps and identify specific opportunities for improvement. The result is more than a checklist: it provides a sound basis for further security planning.

From identified gaps to specific measures


The result combines a clear picture of your OT security level with specific, practical recommendations for action. This enables you to plan the next steps with a clear focus and integrate them into an ongoing OT security program.

Clarity for your OT security

  Understand your OT security maturity
Gain transparency into the security of your OT processes, responsibilities and technical safeguards.


  Identify gaps in your OT environment
Identify missing or inadequate safeguards in your production environment.


  Prioritize measures
Assess the need for action across your OT systems and processes according to security relevance.


  Develop your OT security with a clear focus

Combining technical visibility with security maturity


Designed to complement each other, our OT Visibility Scan and OT Security Gap Assessment combine technical visibility with an evaluation of existing safeguards – enabling well-founded priorities and targeted improvements to your OT security.




#1

OT Visibility Scan

Visibility into assets, network structures
and communication relationships

#2

OT Security Gap Assessment

Assessment of existing safeguards and identification of organizational and technical action needs

More on the OT Security Gap-Assessment  



The OT Visibility Scan provides a technical view of the actual IT/OT environment. The Gap Assessment complements this with an evaluation of organizational, procedural and technical security measures. Together, they provide a broader basis for the future OT security roadmap.
