In development
IT/OT Cybersecurity & Remote Access Readiness
IT/OT boundaries, segmentation and vendor remote-support access for the connected systems an automation project adds. Scope is automation-specific.
What it looks at
The connections an automation project adds.
IT/OT boundaries
Where the connected automation systems meet the business network, and what crosses between them.
Segmentation
Whether the automation systems are separated from the rest of the network, and how.
Vendor remote support
How the vendor would reach the system to support it, and who controls that access.
Access to connected systems
Who can reach the automation systems in scope, from where.
What the result means
A result about the connected systems in scope.
The scope is automation-specific: the connected systems an automation project adds, and how they're reached. It isn't a review of your wider security program.
It isn't a robotics readiness level.
If you go further
Cybersecurity is part of a full Automation Readiness Assessment, which covers it alongside the other domains.
If the network or remote access needs work, Layer8 Tech Group's advisory and infrastructure teams can help. You're free to use anyone.
