Ensuring NIS compliance for an OT environment

Read this case study on how we helped our client align with the NIS directive requirements.

‍

Challenge

Our client was an operator of essential services that needed to ensure it was complying with all new NIS directive requirements, specifically in the OT environment.

This required System Vulnerability management, network segmentation, optimization, and OT specific monitoring. In addition, access and authentication management, and backup and Disaster Recovery processes were also needed.

Solution

Our OT Security experts performed a complete audit of all documentation, system setup (network topology, access/authentication) and ongoing security approach for the OT environment.

They also created an "as is" status report that identified the primary concerns and gaps in the NIS directive, allowing them to identify the primary focus points for further action.

As a final step, they developed a plan to improve maturity levels toward NIS requirements.
