Security Services for Cyber Physical Systems
SOCWISE has extensive competence in providing security services for cyber physical systems, especially in the field of OT (Operational Technology) security.
Operational Technology (OT) systems are critical for operational continuity, and the introduction of the NIS2 regulation further urges the need to find effective and sustainable solutions. According to the NIS2 requirements, OT systems must be treated as information systems, and the controls outlined in the regulation must be applied to them. The goal is not only compliance but achieving real security.
OT Security Solutions and Services
Information Security Consulting, Risk Assessment
SOCWISE also has competencies in GRC (Governance, Risk Management, and Compliance) consulting. This includes the establishment of policies and processes, as well as the assessment and management of organisational risks. The company uses a methodology that focuses on the management of real deficiencies and risks, not only on marketing aspects.
SOCWISE undertakes the risk evaluation of OT systems and the planning of security improvements based on the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) 800-82 standard. The first step in the risk assessment is the assessment of the inventory of assets and the inventory of business processes, followed by the identification of relevant threats and the mapping of control gaps. On the basis of this data, risks are identified and evaluated which enables the implementation of effective security improvements.
Architecture and Protection: In the field of protecting OT systems, SOCWISE emphasises the separation of IT and OT systems and the segmentation of industrial networks. We cooperate with various manufacturers to offer smart and effective solutions for the protection of industrial networks and endpoints. Our key partner, TXOne, provides endpoint and network IPS (Intrusion Prevention System) and IDS (Intrusion Detection System) systems, as well as firewalls.
Incident Management and Monitoring: SOCWISE offers separate OT SOC (Security Operations Centre) as well as integrated IT-OT (fusion) SOC solutions that enable continuous security monitoring and incident management. These solutions can be integrated as an on-premise SOC or as a managed service (MSSP), where certain steps of incident management are outsourced. RSA NetWitness, Tenable OT and Cortex SOAR play a particularly important role in this area.
Services and Trainings: We provide various services and trainings through the CDA (Cyber Defense Advisory) team, which include network and endpoint penetration tests, vulnerability management, and trainings aimed at increasing security awareness (red, blue, purple teaming).
Summary
SOCWISE's security services provided for cyber physical systems are comprehensive and professionally grounded. We are able to offer effective solutions in the field of OT security, including risk assessment, endpoint and network protection, incident management and continuous security monitoring. Through the methodologies and products used, SOCWISE helps its customers achieve the highest level of security and compliance.
