Industrial Cyberattacks Are Escalating
The global surge in cyberattacks against industrial control systems (ICS) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) networks has exposed just how vulnerable critical infrastructure has become. From energy production to manufacturing and water utilities, attackers are exploiting converged IT/OT systems to deliver highly technical, coordinated breaches.
Once isolated, operational technology is now fully connected—making it a lucrative target. Malware and ransomware infiltrations have shut down production lines, compromised safety systems, and triggered regulatory fines and insurance disputes. The financial and reputational costs are immediate and severe.
Complexity, Connectivity & Compliance
The integration of IT and OT environments creates overlapping risk. Firewalls and antivirus tools designed for corporate IT cannot protect industrial networks where uptime and safety take precedence over patching and access control.
Compounding the challenge, regulatory scrutiny is tightening:
- NIST SP 800-82 and ISA/IEC 62443 now serve as baseline standards for OT security.
- DHS CISA and DOE have expanded incident reporting expectations for utilities and manufacturers.
- Insurers are mandating evidence of ICS risk management for cyber liability coverage renewal.
Without a documented security posture, even well-intentioned organizations face coverage denials after an incident.
Integrated Security and Insurance Readiness
eSureITy bridges the gap between industrial cybersecurity and insurance qualification. Our specialized SCADA & ICS Cybersecurity Assessments combine deep technical testing with compliance validation—producing evidence insurers, auditors, and regulators accept.
We evaluate both the technical control plane and the governance layer—helping you prove due diligence, reduce downtime risk, and strengthen insurability.
What Our Assessment Delivers
Comprehensive insight, prioritized remediation, and measurable reduction in exposure.
eSureITy’s SCADA & ICS Assessment includes:
- SCADA/ICS Vulnerability Testing — Detect configuration errors, insecure protocols, outdated firmware, and exploitable interfaces before attackers do.
- SCADA/ICS Risk Assessments — Quantify, categorize, and prioritize OT risk across devices, processes, and networks.
- IT Network Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Analysis — Expose lateral movement from IT to OT and validate segmentation.
- Social Engineering, Wireless, Mobile & API Testing — Identify authentication and access gaps across human and remote attack surfaces.
- Incident Response Planning — Develop a tested, insurer-aligned playbook integrating OT and IT response processes.
- Employee Security Awareness Training — Educate engineers and operators to recognize and prevent targeted attacks.
- 24×7×365 IT & OT Managed Security Services & SIEM — Continuous monitoring and real-time alerting for proactive defense.
- Virtual Information Security Officer (VISO™) — On-demand security leadership for ongoing compliance and policy management.
The Outcome — Operational Resilience with Insurer Confidence
Our deliverables go beyond a technical report. You receive a clear, defensible roadmap to:
- Strengthen defenses across SCADA and ICS systems.
- Achieve alignment with NIST SP 800-82, ISA/IEC 62443, and CISA guidelines.
- Reduce likelihood of cyber insurance claim denial or premium escalation.
- Demonstrate due diligence to boards, regulators, and stakeholders.
- Minimize production downtime and regulatory penalties.
No system is fully immune to attack—but with eSureITy, you control your exposure before adversaries control your systems.
