Assessing Regulatory Gaps in Your OT Environment

Discovering and understanding the compliance gaps in your OT (operational technology) environment is crucial for meeting regulatory compliance requirements.

Our comprehensive gap assessment process involves thorough analysis and evaluation of existing controls in relation to the relevant regulatory standards. This assessment determines whether your controls meet the requirements at an acceptable level or if additional actions are needed to bridge any gaps.

By considering factors such as risk, benefits, cost, and complexity, we prioritize the remedial efforts necessary to ensure regulatory compliance. This approach focuses on both short-term mitigations and long-term strategies, providing the most effective and efficient solutions for reducing risk.

Trust our expertise to help you navigate the complexities of regulatory compliance and achieve a secure and compliant OT environment.
