Mitigating ICS Cyber Incidents
The Challenge
Improving Your Cyber Resiliency By Proactively Containing Risks
While malware and other high profile cyberattacks get a lot of attention, the SANS Institute reports that more than 40% of ICS professionals rank accidental incidents as a top threat vector.1
Examples include device configuration errors, default or weak passwords and disabling security software on a company laptop.
In addition to implementing cyber security best practices, two other things are needed to thwart accidental or unintentional cyber incidents – detection and counter response.
The Solution
Proactive Cyber Risk Detection and Effective Incident Response
The Nozomi Networks solution proactively identifies cyber risks that threaten the security of your industrial control systems.
Cyber Risk Detection
The solution is able to detect a wide range of risks, including:
| Assets with vulnerabilities | Bad configurations (NTP/DNS/DHCP, etc.) |
| Cleartext or weak passwords | Corrupted OT packets |
| Device state change | IP conflicts |
| New connections to the enterprise network | New connections to the Internet |
| New communications | New nodes |
| Policy violations | New remote access |
| Open ports on assets | Non-responsive asset |
| Unauthorized cross level communication | Unencrypted communications (Telnet) |
Incident Response
The solution also reduces forensic efforts and speeds response time. Its advanced industrial network monitoring identifies accidental and unintentional cyber incidents and helps you remediate them to achieve higher levels of cyber resiliency.

Proactively pinpoint unintentional and accidental risks created by weak passwords, new connections to the internet, IP conflicts and more.
Advanced Cyber Risk and Threat Detection
Both SCADAguardian and SCADAguardian Advanced deliver advanced cyber risk identification capabilities that help you uncover operational threats in real-time.
More Operational Visibility & Cyber Security Challenges
Automating My Asset Inventory
Creating an inventory of my industrial control system assets and keeping it up-to-date is extremely difficult.
Improving Situational Awareness
Without visibility into my entire industrial network and its activities, it’s hard to effectively monitor, manage and secure it.
Preventing Unplanned Downtime
Identifying devices that are slipping out of scope would help me avoid equipment failure and costly downtime.
