OT / ICS Defense Suite

Protect what keeps the lights on.

Safety-aware monitoring, segmentation, and incident response engineered for SCADA, PLCs, DCS, and industrial control systems — without disrupting operations.

The Challenge

Air gaps are gone. IT/OT convergence, remote vendor access, and aging Windows assets in plants create a soft target for ransomware and nation-state actors. Traditional IT security tools blind-side controls engineers — or worse, trip safety systems.

Overview

How this solution works

OT environments don't tolerate downtime, and they don't tolerate active scanners. Maverc's OT Defense Suite combines passive asset discovery, protocol-aware anomaly detection, and Purdue-model segmentation engineering — delivered by engineers who've worked in plants, substations, and refineries. We protect uptime first, then security.

Outcomes you'll see

  • Complete asset inventory without touching a single PLC
  • IT/OT segmentation that survives audits and pen tests
  • Detection of unauthorized changes to control logic
  • Reduced ransomware blast radius across plant networks
  • Compliance-ready posture for IEC 62443, NERC CIP, TSA pipeline

Purdue-model network segmentation engineering
Secure remote access for vendors and engineers
OT-specific incident response with safety-first playbooks
ICS vulnerability management (no active scanning)
IEC 62443 & NIST 800-82 program development
Tabletop exercises with controls and operations teams
Building Blocks

Core components

Asset Visibility

Passive deep-packet inspection identifies every PLC, HMI, RTU, historian, and engineering workstation — with firmware versions and known CVEs.

Network Segmentation

Engineer Purdue-model zones and conduits with industrial firewalls, data diodes, and unidirectional gateways where safety demands it.

Threat Detection

Behavioral baselines for control traffic — alert on rogue programming sessions, unauthorized firmware changes, and protocol abuse.

Incident Response

OT-trained responders who understand process safety, will never recommend a blind shutdown, and coordinate with plant operations.

Delivery Model

How we deliver

01

Assess

Site walk-down, passive sensor deployment, and crown-jewel identification with operations stakeholders.

02

Architect

Design segmentation, secure remote access, and monitoring — reviewed with controls engineers before any change.

03

Implement

Phased rollout during planned outages, with full rollback plans and operations sign-off at every gate.

04

Operate

24/7 OT-aware SOC monitoring, quarterly threat hunts, and annual IEC 62443 maturity reviews.

FAQ

Common questions

Will your tools impact production?

No. Discovery is 100% passive via SPAN ports or TAPs. We never actively scan a control network without explicit, scheduled approval.

Do your responders understand process safety?

Yes. Our OT engineers come from controls, automation, and plant operations backgrounds — not just IT security.

Can you support NERC CIP or TSA pipeline directives?

Yes. We map every control to the relevant framework and produce audit-grade evidence.
