Security Engineering & Architecture
Architecture, identity and privileged access, network and application security, data protection, hardening, and operational technology.
Security Architecture Review
Review of security architecture, zero trust maturity and cloud configuration in one engagement.
Identity and Access Review
Review of IAM architecture: MFA coverage, conditional access policies, RBAC design, privileged access management, and identity lifecycle management.
Data Security Assessment
Identify and catalog sensitive data types (regulated data, PII, trade secrets, IP) and assess current data protection controls.
Network and Cloud Security
Network segmentation design, firewall rule review, DMZ architecture, and secure remote access assessment, including regulated-data boundary enforcement and CMMC network control alignment for DoD contractors.
Data Loss Prevention
Design of a data classification scheme and DLP policy framework.
Application Security and DevSecOps
Assesses application security practices: SDLC security integration, SAST/DAST tooling coverage, dependency management, secure coding standards, and DevSecOps pipeline posture.
OT Security
High-level OT/ICS security assessment for utilities and for DoD contractors with manufacturing, lab, or industrial control environments.
Identity and Access Management
Implements the identity and access controls an organization is missing.
Other practice areas
Operational technology security and regulatory defensibility.
Exposure is usually mundane: the internet-reachable HMI, the integrator's standing remote access, the cellular modem a contractor installed in 2019 that never reached an asset list. A visibility platform reports what changed on the network. The question a utility has to answer is which of those changes end in a boil-water notice, a load shed or a permit violation, and what the regulator, the insurer and the board are each owed once an incident is declared. The program is built around that question.
What changed
The exposure that matters in OT is the vendor remote-access path, the cellular gateway missing from the inventory, the engineering workstation reachable from the business network. What has changed is the obligation on top of it. Water systems serving 3,301 to 49,999 people must recertify their emergency response plan by December 31, 2026. CIRCIA reporting clocks run from the moment an incident is identified, before it is understood. The utility regulator, the water resilience statute and state primacy requirements each apply in full alongside the others.
