    WHY MDR FOR OT

    MDR OT takes OT cyber security to the next level by looking at the devices on the network; where most attacks target. Active Threat Detection discovers devices, then using native language queries classifies all OT assets even when they aren’t communicating in the network.
    MDR for OT provides deep situational awareness tracking every change made to every device in the OT network.

    From unique OT features such as SCADA- and PLC-aware functionalities, to broader concepts, such as zone access control and centralized management, logging and reporting is performed in a way that allows for solid integrations with the existing operational workflows providing efficient threat detection & response to achieve OT security.

IT vs. OT Security: Understanding the Differences

IT (Information Technology) and OT ( Operational Technology) security serve different, yet complementary, purposes in the cybersecurity landscape. While IT security focuses on protecting digital assets, such as data, networks and systems from cyber threats, OT security is concerned with safeguarding physical processes, systems, and devices used to monitor and control industrial operations, like manufacturing or energy production, where safety and continuity are paramount.

 

The challenges in IT and OT security differ greatly. IT environments are typically more dynamic and can often implement frequent updates and patches, while OT systems are designed for stability and long-term use, with minimal downtime. Then, OT security requires tailored strategies that address the unique requirements of critical infrastructure, such as real-time monitoring, network segmentation and specialized threat detection, to protect against cyber attacks that could disrupt physical processes or cause significant safety risks.

By integrating both IT and OT security measures, organizations can create a more comprehensive and resilient defense against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, ensuring both digital and physical assets are protected.

Obrela’s comprehensive range of IT and OT security solutions are designed to protect both digital and physical environments from evolving cyber threats. With a deep understanding of both domains, Obrela provides continuous monitoring, advanced threat detection and rapid response services tailored to each environment’s unique needs.

Our approach integrates real-time analytics, proactive risk management and a combination of IT and OT security strategies to ensure seamless protection across all layers of an organization’s infrastructure, maintaining operational continuity and safeguarding critical assets.

The Importance of Operational Technology Cyber Security

Operational Technology (OT) cybersecurity is a critical solution in protecting any systems which control and monitor essential industrial operations, such as manufacturing, energy production and transportation.

As these environments become more connected, they also become more vulnerable to cyber attacks that can disrupt production, damage equipment or even endanger human lives. Ensuring robust OT cybersecurity services is vital for maintaining operational continuity, safety, and resilience against increasingly sophisticated threats.

As cyber threats evolve, the importance of OT cybersecurity continues to grow. Effective protection requires specialized strategies that go beyond traditional IT security measures, focusing on the unique needs of industrial environments. These strategies include real-time monitoring, incident response and threat detection specifically designed for OT systems. Investing in OT cybersecurity not only safeguards critical infrastructure but also builds trust with stakeholders by demonstrating a commitment to security and compliance.

Obrela delivers its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) solution specifically for OT. When your critical operational technology needs Advanced Threat Detection and Response capabilities specifically for industrial control systems (ICS) and other OT environments, you can rely on Obrela.

What is OT Cybersecurity?

This section provides useful information about the service at a basic level to help you familiarise with the benefits of using it.

OT (Operational Technology) security protects an organisation’s hardware and software systems that control and monitor industrial operations. Such systems are often vital to public safety and national security, making their protection against cyber attacks a top priority. Unlike traditional IT, which secures data and digital infrastructure, OT cybersecurity services safeguard critical infrastructure components like manufacturing equipment, power grids and water systems.

With the rise of interconnected devices and digital transformation in industries, OT environments face increased risks from cyber-attacks. Effective OT cybersecurity strategies involve real-time OT monitoring, OT security services threat detection and response mechanisms tailored to industrial settings. This approach ensures the integrity and availability of critical operations while minimizing potential risks associated with cyber threats. As cyber threats evolve, securing OT environments is essential for maintaining operational continuity and safety.

Obrela delivers OT cybersecurity by providing comprehensive solutions designed to protect critical industrial systems from cyber threats. With advanced threat detection, continuous monitoring and real-time response capabilities, Obrela helps organizations manage their technology network security more effectively.

Leveraging our expertise in both IT and OT cyber security domains, OBRELA helps ensure industrial operations remain safe, resilient and compliant with regulatory standards while minimizing disruptions and potential damage from cyber attacks. By integrating risk management and proactive defense strategies, Obrela fortifies the security posture of critical infrastructure with simplicity and ease.
