About OTFIELD

Dedicated to protecting the critical infrastructure that powers modern society.

Our Mission

OTFIELD was founded on a simple principle: operational technology environments require specialized cybersecurity expertise that understands both the technical complexities and operational realities of industrial systems.

While traditional IT security firms focus on enterprise networks and data protection, we recognized a critical gap in the market. Industrial operators managing SCADA systems, DCS platforms, PLCs, and safety instrumented systems face unique challenges where a security incident doesn't just mean data loss—it can mean production downtime, safety risks, environmental impacts, and threats to public welfare.

Our team combines deep industrial operational experience with cutting-edge cybersecurity expertise. We've worked in control rooms, understood the constraints of 24/7 operations, and witnessed firsthand the evolution of cyber threats targeting critical infrastructure. This perspective shapes everything we do—from how we conduct assessments to how we communicate risk to stakeholders.

Our Vision: A world where critical infrastructure operators have the security expertise and tools they need to protect operations, ensure safety, and maintain public trust in an increasingly connected industrial landscape.

Our Approach

How we deliver OT security assessments that prioritize safety, minimize disruption, and provide actionable outcomes.

🤝

Collaborative Discovery

We begin every engagement with in-depth stakeholder interviews to understand your operations, critical processes, safety requirements, and business objectives. This ensures our assessments are contextualized to your specific environment.

🔬

Safe & Thorough Analysis

Our methodology combines passive monitoring, safe active testing, and manual analysis. We work closely with operations teams to schedule activities, establish communication protocols, and maintain safety-first practices throughout.

📈

Actionable Recommendations

We deliver prioritized remediation roadmaps that consider risk levels, business impact, implementation complexity, and budget constraints. Our recommendations are practical, achievable, and aligned with industry standards.

🎯

Risk-Based Prioritization

Not all vulnerabilities pose equal risk. We prioritize findings based on exploitability, potential impact to operations and safety, and threat actor capabilities—ensuring you focus resources where they matter most.

📋

Compliance Integration

Our assessments map findings to relevant regulatory frameworks (IEC 62443, NERC CIP, NIS2) and industry standards, helping you address both security and compliance requirements simultaneously.

🔄

Continuous Partnership

Security is not a one-time project. We provide ongoing support, remediation validation, and periodic reassessments to ensure your OT security posture evolves with the threat landscape.
