Operational Technology (OT) security should be ingrained in your company’s culture, equivalent to safety. Cyber incident preparedness begins with people. ThreatGEN works with your team in many ways to improve your resiliency and OT cybersecurity capabilities through an innovative and modernized approach to our OT Security Services.

Cybersecurity is risk management. At the end of the day, every owner/operator wants to know: What and where is my risk? What’s the likelihood that risk could cause an incident? What would be the impact be to safety, production, business reputation, and revenue? How do I deal with that risk with the resources I have available to me? Risk management is not new to industrial operators. They have been assessing and managing risk for decades, and they are good at it. It’s often called a Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) or Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP).

Cybersecurity is not something new that needs to be implemented into, or “bolted on” to, operations. “Cyber” is simply a new area of risk to consider. Therefore, industrial “cybersecurity” should start from within engineering and operations, using an engineering-minded approach.
