OT & ICS Risk Assessment
Right-sized Solutions to fit all complex environments
At LeveL5Cyber, we offer cybersecurity assessments for a wide range of OT industries. Cybersecurity risk assessments specific to OT systems identify and evaluate potential risks that could impact Health and Human Safety, Availability, and overall Reliability.
Why Does a Business Need Cybersecurity Assessments for OT?
OT environments pose different risks to a business than IT. As with IT systems, they play a role in the integrity and confidentiality of data, but unique to OT systems, they also impact a business’s ability to offer safe, reliable performance.
Prioritizing your cybersecurity efforts in OT is more efficient when risks and potential threats have been clearly identified.
OT-focused risk assessments include:
Which Industries Require OT/ICS Risk Assessment Services?
Many industry professionals understand the benefits of a total risk assessment but may not realize an OT-specific risk assessment is key to better protecting our critical infrastructure. Industries that may benefit from these cybersecurity assessments include:
An OT & ICS Risk Assessment can also be tailored to Agriculture, Critical Manufacturing, Pharmaceutical, Food & Beverage, and Defense Industrial Base businesses. Taking a proactive approach to protecting your network infrastructure can minimize the risk of a malicious cyberattack, as well as reduce the potential for downtime and loss of critical data.

LeveL5Cyber’s Risk Assessments enable organizations to inform and prioritize decisions regarding cybersecurity. The services take into consideration today’s evolving threat landscape to drive cybersecurity priorities with an outcome-driven approach using industry standard processes.
While timing can vary, most Assessments will take approximately five to six weeks to complete. Program Development services may take longer based on the scope.
The ISA/IEC 62443 series of standards define requirements and processes for implementing and maintaining electronically secure industrial automation and control systems (IACS). These standards set best practices for security and provide a way to assess the level of security performance.
A NIST Special Publication provides guidance on how to secure operational technology (OT) while addressing their unique performance, reliability, and safety requirements. OT encompasses a broad range of programmable systems and devices that interact with the physical environment (or manage devices that interact with the physical environment). These systems and devices detect or cause a direct change through the monitoring and/or control of devices, processes, and events. Examples include industrial control systems, building automation systems, transportation systems, physical access control systems, physical environment monitoring systems, and physical environment measurement systems.
