ICS / SCADA Security

Specialized cyber-defense for the operational-technology (OT) environments powering New England — from substations to treatment plants to factory floors.

Discuss a matter

Why ICS/SCADA is different

Control-system networks run on decade-old protocols (Modbus, DNP3, IEC-61850, OPC-UA) across equipment that cannot be patched on a Tuesday. Traditional IT security tooling is blind to them and — deployed carelessly — can actually cause a safety incident.

Our engineers have hands-on experience with Rockwell, Siemens, Schneider, GE, Emerson and Honeywell platforms, and operate under a "do no harm" philosophy: passive monitoring first, active testing only with written change control.

Engagements

We support OT owners from risk assessment through 24/7 monitoring.

  • OT network architecture review and Purdue-model segmentation
  • Passive asset discovery and baselining (Dragos, Claroty, Nozomi)
  • NERC CIP, IEC 62443 and TSA Security Directive readiness
  • OT-safe penetration testing and red-teaming
  • ICS-specific incident response and forensic analysis of PLC/HMI/historian data
  • Tabletop exercises with engineering and operations staff

Under attack? Under subpoena? Under pressure?

Our intake line is staffed by a licensed investigator 24/7/365. Engagements are covered by NDA before any details leave your office.
