Manufacturing & Industrial
Plant-floor and corporate IT with the OT boundary treated as a genuine security control.
Manufacturing environments fail differently. The corporate network looks like any other business, and then there is a production line running control software on an operating system that went out of support a decade ago and cannot be touched without vendor recertification.
How we work here
We treat the boundary between information technology and operational technology as a real control, segmented and monitored, rather than a diagram. Unsupported systems are isolated and compensating controls are documented, because patching them is genuinely not an option.
Typical scope
- Managed IT across corporate, plant and warehouse environments
- IT/OT segmentation, monitoring and documented compensating controls
- Continuity planning where an outage stops physical production
- Capability centers for engineering support, supply chain and back-office operations
What makes this sector hard
-
Unpatchable systems
Control software tied to vendor certification cannot be patched on a normal cycle.
-
IT/OT boundary
Flat networks let an office compromise reach the production line.
-
Downtime cost
An hour of stopped production is measurable in a way office downtime is not.
-
Site diversity
Plants, warehouses and offices have genuinely different requirements and cannot share one standard build.
