  • Physical Security Penetration Test: Evaluate your physical defences with scenarios including social engineering, tailgating, RFID cloning, and baiting to uncover vulnerabilities and strengthen access controls.

  • Systems & Network Hardening: Enhance security across your OT environment by hardening network devices and control systems, ensuring adherence to security best practices and minimizing vulnerabilities.

  • Wireless Network Penetration Test: Assess the security of your wireless infrastructure, identifying potential entry points in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth networks to protect critical operational systems.

  • Segmentation Testing: Verify the effectiveness of your network segmentation by simulating attack scenarios, ensuring threats are contained and minimizing the risk of compromise across your OT infrastructure.

Key Benefits:

  • Comprehensive Protection: Cover all critical areas, from physical access to network architecture, ensuring your OT remains secure.
