Industrial Control Systems

CASE STUDY
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) that support our nation's critical infrastructure and manufacturing are vulnerable to cyber-attacks.

Our nation’s energy grid, chemical plants, water treatment plants, manufacturing plants and other public and private sectors that use cyber physical systems have been the target of cyber-attacks in recent years, and these systems, if compromised, can cause serious harm and even loss of life. Operational Technology (OT) systems are behind the curve with respect to cybersecurity defenses as compared with Information Technology (IT) systems. OT systems require a different approach to cyber defenses. Learn how ClearFocus Technologies is helping private and public entities protect Industrial Control Systems.

Cybersecurity Modernization

One of ClearFocus federal clients wanted to modernize their existing cybersecurity program since the organization was not able to address several federally mandated security requirements. Additionally, new standards like the Risk Management Framework (RMF) require new processes, technology and approaches to meet the NIST SP 800-37 requirements.

SOC Operations

A ClearFocus client had recently formed a Security Operations Center (SOC) but was struggling with the roles, responsibilities and procedures to run an effective SOC.

Establishing a Threat Defense Life Cycle

Cyber threats and the sophistication of cyber-attacks continue to increase. Yet, today’s cyber defenses may not be adequate to stop tomorrow’s cyber-attack. By now, most enterprises have invested in cyber defenses, deploying a myriad of cybersecurity tools to protect their information assets…but have they really reduced the risk of breach?
