    In the industrial, energy and manufacturing sectors, the integration of IT and OT systems is becoming increasingly challenging. Traditionally, separated OT systems were designed for long-term, stable operation without the need for constant connection to IT networks. With increasing digitization, more and more companies are implementing the integration of these two environments, which carries significant risks.

    The lack of properly designed and secure IT and OT integration can lead to serious security and operations management issues. Incompatibility of standards, differences in architecture and lack of full visibility over processes can result in security vulnerabilities, operational downtime and increased susceptibility to cyber attacks. Companies risk production disruptions, data loss and financial consequences resulting from inconsistent infrastructure.

    Divergent IT and OT security standards

    IT and OT systems operate under different rules, resulting in inconsistent security policies. Different standards in these environments increase the risk of cyber attacks and operational errors. Our integrated solutions harmonize security management, eliminating gaps between IT and OT.

    Lack of full visibility and control over threats

    The use of separated IT and OT systems creates difficulties in monitoring threats in real time. Companies often lack full visibility over processes, leading to delayed response to unauthorized activities. Our solutions integrate both environments, providing full operational control and rapid response to threats.

    Complexity and risks associated with integration

    Integrating IT and OT systems presents a number of technical challenges. The two environments differ in architecture, protocols and operational requirements, which can lead to new security vulnerabilities and operational disruptions. Our services provide secure, seamless integration that minimizes operational risks, increasing management efficiency.

    Implementation process

    Step by Step

    Integrating IT and OT systems requires precise planning and execution to ensure that the two environments are securely connected without disrupting ongoing operations. Our implementation process is tailored to the specifics of each infrastructure, with each step designed to eliminate risk and optimize system performance.

    Infrastructure audit and needs analysis

    We start with a comprehensive audit of your IT and OT infrastructure. We gather detailed data on architecture, communication protocols, existing security features and current threats. Based on this, we create a risk profile and identify key areas for integration.

    Development of a dedicated integration architecture

    Based on the results of the analysis, we design a detailed integration architecture tailored to the specific needs of your infrastructure. We take into account both operational and security aspects, ensuring that the combined IT and OT systems run smoothly and comply with industry regulations (e.g. IEC 62443, NIS2).

    Integration systems implementation and deployment

    In this phase, we carry out the implementation of integrated systems, including the installation of the necessary software and configuration of hardware. The entire process is carried out with minimal impact on current operations, ensuring uninterrupted continuity of key processes.

    Functional testing and safety validation

    Once the implementation is complete, we conduct detailed integration tests that cover both system performance and security compliance. We validate data exchange processes and conduct incident simulations to confirm the effectiveness of implemented solutions.

    Operational monitoring and technical support

    Once the implementation is complete, we offer ongoing monitoring of IT and OT systems to ensure their reliability and early detection of potential threats. Our technical support also includes regular upgrades, optimization, and staff training on how to operate and manage the new solutions.

    Opinions of Our Customers

    From the very beginning of our cooperation, Transition Technologies-Control Solutions has made itself known as a reliable partner. What set them apart was their creative approach at the bidding stage. We were presented with several proposals for solutions based on which we could choose a target direction.</p>
    <p>During implementation, on the other hand, they acted with determination, solving successive problems that arose. Faced with the fact that the project was implemented in a difficult market environment, we often had to work together and develop remedies, often through compromise. Also, during the operation of the site, they reacted constructively and quickly to faults as they appeared.</p>
    <p>TT-CS has proven itself as a trusted partner in challenging projects. We positively look forward to working together on future mechanical engineering projects.
