IT & OT Security Assessment
IT & OT Security Assessment by Hacknox likely involves evaluating the security posture of both Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) systems. Here's a breakdown of what this service might include:
1. IT Security Assessment:
Focuses on traditional IT systems like servers, networks, applications, and databases. Key components may include:
- Vulnerability Assessments: Identifying and prioritizing vulnerabilities in IT assets.
- Penetration Testing: Simulating attacks to uncover weaknesses.
- Configuration Reviews: Ensuring systems adhere to security best practices.
- Compliance Checks: Aligning with standards like ISO 27001, GDPR, or PCI DSS.
- Cloud Security: Reviewing cloud environments for misconfigurations and risks.
2. OT Security Assessment:
Targets the specialized systems used in industrial and critical infrastructure environments. Key aspects may include:
- Asset Inventory: Mapping all OT assets and their communication flows.
- Vulnerability Management: Assessing vulnerabilities specific to Industrial Control Systems (ICS) or SCADA systems.
- Network Segmentation Reviews: Evaluating how IT and OT networks are segregated to prevent cross-contamination.
- Incident Response Readiness: Assessing the capability to detect, respond, and recover from OT-specific threats.
- Standards Compliance: Aligning with frameworks like IEC 62443, NIST CSF, or ISA standards.
3. Integration of IT & OT Security:
Since IT and OT systems are increasingly interconnected, Hacknox's assessment likely focuses on:
- Identifying weak points in IT-OT convergence.
- Testing and recommending secure communication protocols.
- Hardening shared resources such as gateways and databases.
