Who Can Reach Your Plant? Governing Third-Party and Remote Access in OT

Connected operations create speed and flexibility. They also create hidden routes into the systems that keep people, assets and production safe

One temporary connection can turn a closed facility into an exposed one.
WHY THIS INDUSTRIAL SAFETY CHALLENGE?
Connected operations create hidden exposure

Modern factories and buildings rely on connected equipment, remote maintenance and external providers. Each connection can create an unmanaged path into the operational environment. The risk extends beyond data: compromised controls can stop production, damage equipment and put people at risk.

主なメリット
Visibility that protects the operation

A coordinated security model helps industrial leaders see hidden exposure, prioritise action and respond without disrupting critical processes.

チェックアイコン
See what is really connected

An accurate asset inventory and live network view expose temporary routers, personal devices and remote links that local teams may not know exist.

チェックアイコン
Prioritise risk in operational context

Vulnerabilities and access paths are assessed against process criticality, safety, availability and the practical constraints of the site.

チェックアイコン
Detect anomalies before disruption

Continuous passive monitoring highlights suspicious traffic and unusual behaviour without interfering with production equipment.

チェックアイコン
Coordinate a faster response

Clear incident workflows help site and security teams contain threats, protect critical processes and restore normal operations with less uncertainty.

01
Map assets and hidden connections

Build a reliable inventory and network map so operational teams can see unmanaged devices, external access and dependencies across the facility.

02
Assess risk without interrupting operations

Review architecture, network exposure, vulnerabilities, roles and processes in the context of safety, uptime and site constraints.

03
Shape a phased security roadmap

Prioritise actions by risk reduction, operational feasibility, cost and compliance needs, creating a practical path from immediate exposure to long-term resilience.

04
Strengthen controls around critical pathways

Improve segmentation, access control, remote maintenance and endpoint protection around the routes most likely to affect essential processes.

05
Operate continuous detection and response

Combine passive monitoring, anomaly detection, incident workflows and recurring vulnerability review so teams can identify and act on risk earlier.

実証済みの効果
Hidden exposure surfaced early

Source cases show how visibility and continuous monitoring can reveal unnoticed access paths, vulnerabilities and anomalous activity before they escalate.

重要な結果
Proof begins with what operations can see

Early evidence from building and industrial environments shows faster discovery of exposure and more actionable prioritisation. Broader business outcomes still require validation.

チェックアイコン
Detect suspicious activity within days

Monitoring introduced in a building automation environment identified external activity associated with a high-risk source only days after deployment.

チェックアイコン
Trace the route nobody knew existed

The investigation linked the activity to a temporary remote-maintenance router that the building team had not included in its view of the environment.

チェックアイコン
Surface vulnerabilities within hours

In an industrial proof of concept, vulnerabilities were identified after only a few hours and addressed by operational and security personnel.

チェックアイコン
Build an actionable site inventory in days

At an industrial site, a complete operational asset inventory was available after a couple of days, alongside the detection of anomalies and threats.

Make hidden OT risk visible

Strengthen visibility, response readiness and operational resilience before an unnoticed connection becomes a business interruption.
