Securing the Physical Core of Critical Infrastructure.
Proact delivers framework-driven Operational Technology (OT) cybersecurity engineering, turnkey integration, and workforce training across the MEA region. We protect industrial uptime and human safety by implementing passive, standard-compliant defenses that secure legacy and modern ICS/SCADA/DCS environments without risking operational downtime.
Frameworks Delivered
Service Framework
Four Engineering Pillars
Framework-driven OT cybersecurity services engineered for industrial availability, process safety, and regional regulatory compliance — not IT data confidentiality.
OT Cyber Assessment & Risk Governance
Know your exposure before the adversary does.
Consequence-driven risk quantification rooted in physical process analysis. Our assessments map cyber vulnerabilities directly to HAZOP/LOPA safety consequences, exposing risks that purely IT-centric methodologies miss entirely.
- Passive asset visibility mapping — zero active probes on live loops
- HAZOP/LOPA cyber-mapping for consequence-driven risk scoring
- Purdue Model Layer 0–4 gap analysis against IEC 62443-3-2 SL targets
- Regulatory compliance gap analysis: NESA, CITRA, NCA ECC, DESC
- Network architecture review and zone/conduit boundary validation
- Third-party vendor and supply chain risk exposure assessment
Turnkey Architecture & Segmentation Engineering
Defending the Purdue Model from Layer 0 to the enterprise boundary.
Engineering-led implementation of zone and conduit architectures across the full Purdue Model hierarchy. We install hardware-enforced boundaries that physically prevent lateral movement between OT and IT networks — with deep packet inspection tuned for industrial protocols.
- Custom zone/conduit segmentation engineering (IEC 62443-3-3 compliant)
- Hardware-enforced unidirectional security gateways (data diodes)
- Industrial firewall DPI for Modbus TCP, OPC UA, DNP3, Profinet, EtherNet/IP
- Industrial DMZ design between Layer 3 (Ops Management) and Layer 4 (Enterprise IT)
- Legacy HMI, RTU, and EWS endpoint hardening without process disruption
- FAT/SAT security testing and commissioning sign-off
Managed OT Monitoring & Resilient Response
Continuous operational awareness — without active probing risk.
100% passive deep packet inspection monitoring that baselines normal industrial communication patterns and flags anomalies without ever injecting a single malformed query into the field network. OT-specific SIEM/SOC integrations designed around process safety, not data confidentiality.
- Passive DPI network monitoring — no active scanning on live control systems
- Industrial SIEM/SOC integration with OT-native detection platforms
- Process baseline anomaly tracking and behavioral drift detection
- Serialized asset inventory with firmware version and CVE correlation
- OT-specific Incident Response Plan (IRP) engineering for plant-trip mitigation
- 24/7 alert triage by engineers with ICS/SCADA operational backgrounds
Specialized Industrial Workforce Training
Building operational defense intelligence at every role level.
Role-bifurcated training programs that recognize OT engineers and IT security teams operate in fundamentally different threat environments. Automation engineers learn PLC/SCADA defense while IT teams learn the hard rules of safe OT engagement — preventing the most common source of OT incidents: well-intentioned IT actions on live systems.
- Automation Engineers track: PLC/DCS/SCADA threat vector defense
- IT Security teams track: OT environment engagement safety protocols
- Layer 1/2 control logic threat vector workshops and live lab exercises
- ICS/SCADA incident tabletop simulations with process consequence scenarios
- NCA, NESA, and IEC 62443 compliance readiness workshops
- ISA/IEC 62443 Cybersecurity Fundamentals & Specialist certification prep
