Industrial Cyber Security
Protecting plants from cyberattacks and incidents is essential to minimize downtime and prevent issues related to performance, data integrity, and the safety of people, machinery, and the environment. For years, ServiTecno has championed the theory (and practice) of Security-by-Design, identifying three essential pillars for secure and efficient operations:
- The ANOMALY DETECTION : This represents a deep understanding of your assets and the events that define "normal operations." Knowing and recognizing anomalies is the first step in preventing critical issues.
- BACKUP & RESTART : To minimize downtime and easily restore configurations. Protect production from undetected changes and cyber threats.
- Establish one SECURE COMMUNICATION : Establishing secure communication between factory systems and the enterprise network is a complex task that requires specific measures and appropriate technologies.
An additional key element is what we call the “Plan B” or the "parachute": how quickly can you recover from unscheduled downtime? There are specific technologies designed to facilitate a rapid restart.
ServiTecno has long advocated for the Security-by-Design approach. In the Operational Technology (OT) field, this is far more effective than "Security-by-Product," especially considering the fragmented nature of plants and technologies installed over time.
This approach is based on an in-depth knowledge of system architectures and their behavior, the development of ad hoc solutions, and, above all, the promotion of a strong cybersecurity culture and robust policies.
Mission
ServiTecno’s MISSION is three-fold: a roadmap that starts from the foundations, addressing applications in their current state while preparing for future developments.
- RECOVER: Fixing what is broken or malfunctioning following a cyberattack, incident, or operational failure.
- COMPLY: Aligning plants and procedures with international standards and industry best practices.
- PROTECT: Securing applications against current threats and preparing for future challenges.
How can we help you? We offer end-to-end expertise in:
- Analysis, assessment and protection of industrial networks
- Securing SCADA, HISTORIAN, MES and ICS systems (in general)
- OT penetration testing
- OT SOC (Security Operations Center) services
- Supply of products for remediation
- OT Cybersecurity training and courses
Industrial Cybersecurity by ServiTecno
Industrial Cybersecurity, Industry XNUMX, Utility XNUMX, Smart Manufacturing, Smart Grids, and Smart Cities: these are now familiar concepts, much like the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial IoT (IIoT). In the strategic plans published by the Italian Government (and many other nations), Cybersecurity is recognized as one of the fundamental "pillars"—an enabling technology that must be present and managed to ensure the success of any XNUMX-driven digitalization project.
Within the Industry XNUMX and Utility XNUMX frameworks, the focus is on the Industrial Internet, Cloud computing, Big Data & Analytics, and—above all—the vertical and horizontal integration of systems. All these elements rely on the "connectivity" between plants, networks, management systems, and Cloud architectures.
"Securely connecting industrial assets" such as PLCs and RTUs has been our mission for decades—long before terms like IoT or Industry XNUMX existed. We tackle this challenge by providing our clients (End Users, System Integrators, and OEMs) with deep expertise, proven methodologies, and best-in-class innovative technologies.
Furthermore, the provisions within Industry XNUMX/Utility XNUMX plans offer significant incentives and tax benefits (such as enhanced depreciation/tax credits), allowing for a much faster Return on Investment (ROI).
The new octoplant software solution centralizes the complete management f your entire facility into a single system.
