In the energy, industrial and manufacturing sectors, OT (Operational Technology) systems security is critical to maintaining operational continuity and protecting against cyber threats. As technology evolves and attacks on critical infrastructure increase, companies face a number of challenges. Lack of adequate security can lead to serious financial losses, downtime and reputational risk.

Increased vulnerability to cyber attacks and lack of threat visibility
OT systems are more and more integrated with IT, increasing the risk of cyber attacks. Lack of monitoring results in late detection of incidents, resulting in downtime. Our audits identify vulnerabilities and implement real-time monitoring, enabling rapid response and minimizing the risk of financial and operational losses.
Non-compliance with regulations and industry standards
The introduction of new regulations, such as NIS2, requires an organization’s compliance with legal standards. Non-compliance can lead to financial penalties and loss of certification. Our audits help you comply with international standards such as IEC 62443 and ISO 27001, offering recommendations to improve compliance and reduce the risk of penalties.
Lack of consistency in the management of IT and OT systems
Integration of IT and OT often leads to inconsistent security. The lack of a common approach increases the risk of threat penetration from IT to critical OT systems. Our audits analyze the consistency between IT and OT systems, proposing integrated solutions that minimize the risk of threat penetration and ensure full infrastructure protection.
Implementation process
Step by Step
Our OT security audits are a multi-step process that allows us to fully analyze, identify vulnerabilities and implement appropriate security measures, ensuring that your infrastructure is protected.

<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>

FAQ
Questions
and answers
In the FAQ section, you will find answers to key questions about our services and processes, based on knowledge and experience. Our goal is to dispel doubts and provide clear information.
What is an OT security audit and why is it essential for industrial companies?
An OT (Operational Technology) security audit is a comprehensive analysis of operational technology systems to identify security vulnerabilities, assess risks and implement measures to protect against cyber threats. For companies operating in the industrial, energy or manufacturing sectors, an audit is essential to ensure operational continuity, protection of critical infrastructure and compliance with industry regulations. Failure to provide adequate safeguards can lead to serious consequences, including downtime, financial losses and damage to a company’s reputation.
What are the benefits of conducting an OT security audit?
An OT security audit brings a number of important benefits to companies, such as:
- Identify potential security vulnerabilities that can be exploited by cybercriminals.
- Minimize the risk of operational downtime and financial losses resulting from cyber attacks.
- Compliance with the latest industry regulations, including the NIS2 directive, IEC 62443 and ISO 27001.
- Increasing the resilience of operational infrastructure to cyber threats and improving incident management processes.
- Long-term security of OT systems through implementation of best practices and monitoring tools.
How long does it take to conduct an OT security audit?
The duration of the audit depends on the size and complexity of the OT infrastructure. For smaller systems, an audit can take from a few days to a week. For larger and more complex installations, a full audit can take several weeks. The schedule and scope of the audit are individually tailored to the client’s needs, in order to cause the least amount of disruption to the company’s day-to-day operations.
Could conducting an audit disrupt my OT infrastructure?
An OT security audit is designed to minimize the impact on a company’s day-to-day operations. Our approach involves detailed planning of all audit activities, allowing most analyses to be performed without interfering with critical processes. If some tasks require real-time intervention, they are carried out safely, without risk of interrupting operations.
What are the most common threats that an OT security audit helps address?
An OT security audit helps identify and address numerous threats, including:
-Ransomware attacks – locking systems and demanding a ransom to unlock them.
-Malware – malicious software designed to disrupt operating systems.
-APT(Advanced Persistent Threats) – advanced, long-term attacks that are difficult to detect and designed to take control of OT systems.
-Unauthorized access – potential breaches resulting from misconfigured systems or inadequate access control.
-Internal threats – resulting from improper access to critical systems by authorized employees without proper control procedures.
How does an OT security audit affect compliance with regulations and industry standards?
One of the key elements of an OT security audit is assessing infrastructure compliance with applicable regulations and industry standards. The audit helps companies bring their systems into compliance with international standards such as IEC 62443, ISO 27001 and the NIS2 directive. Meeting these requirements not only minimizes the risk of financial penalties and sanctions, but also increases the confidence of customers and partners, which is important in tenders and international cooperation.
What are the key steps in implementing the recommendations after the audit?
Upon completion of the audit, we provide a detailed report containing the results and recommendations for corrective action. Implementation of recommendations includes the following steps:
1 Identify priorities – identify the most critical security vulnerabilities that require immediate intervention.
2. implementation of recommendations – implementation of security systems such as real-time monitoring, intrusion prevention systems, identity and access management.
3. solution testing – we simulate attacks to make sure the implemented solutions work as intended.
4 Staff training – we educate the client’s team so that they can effectively manage deployed systems and respond to incidents.
Do you offer support after implementation of audit recommendations?
Yes, our company offers full support after implementation of audit recommendations. This includes regular security testing, system updates, network monitoring and ongoing incident management support. Depending on the client’s needs, we can also provide dedicated training for employees to raise their awareness and competence in OT cyber security.
