Secure your IT and ICS/OT Critical Systems
Keeping your ICS environment physically off the enterprise network is no longer a trusted cybersecurity strategy.
Why? A physical air gap neither prevents malware intrusions, nor helps you spot malware once it makes it inside your network.
A strong cybersecurity posture for ICS requires full visibility into the network’s traffic (IT enterprise network and OT operational technology network).
“… deploying systems and technologies that can monitor control systems to detect malicious activity and facilitate response actions to cyber threats is central to ensuring the safe operations of these critical systems.
The Federal Government will work with industry to share threat information for priority control system critical infrastructure throughout the country.”

Getting visibility into remote sites with harsh environments – Power Substations, Mining Sites and other unique locations.
Aggregates multiple input streams into multiple aggregated output streams– optimizing scarce tool port requirements within your substation.
Filters out unwanted traffic based on packet headers, eliminating unwanted traffic like CCTV video feeds.
The Vision T1000 also load balances traffic to optimize usage of monitoring tools.
TAA Compliant, certified for harsh operating environments, and supports AC and DC power requirements
“We cannot address threats we cannot see; therefore, deploying systems and technologies that can monitor control systems to detect malicious activity and facilitate response actions to cyber threats is central to ensuring the safe operations of these critical systems.”

Vulnerable industrial control systems (ICS): heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), Building power distribution systems and communication systems.
Improve ICS security with cost-effective network visibility.
This paper explains NERC’s compliance requirements Utilities should consider when implementing a monitoring and visibility strategy for the 100Day Plan. The NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) standards include regulatory elements that make collecting and archiving network traffic more important than ever before. Utilities are subject to regular NERC Compliance audits and must also regularly conduct vulnerability assessments.
The interconnectedness of OT Networks and ICS with IT networks has increased the ICS/OT attack surface due to:
