Industrial Cyber Security & OT Resilience

Strengthen your industrial resilience. Defend your operations with proven OT cyber security.

As industrial systems become more connected, the need for robust OT cyber security has never been greater.

iconsys delivers end-to-end industrial cyber protection through our proven GUARD Framework — designed to help businesses strengthen resilience, reduce downtime and ensure compliance.

Why Cyber Security Matters

Industrial businesses are becoming increasingly connected as OT and IT environments converge. While this enables efficiency and digital transformation, it also exposes critical operations to cyber threats.

Barely a week goes by without another news article on yet another company brought to its knees due to a cyber-attack. The time for the ‘they wouldn’t target us, would they?’ approach is over.

Legacy control systems, fragmented architectures, and rising ransomware attacks can lead to costly downtime, safety risks, and regulatory breaches.

Standards such as IEC 62443, ISO 27001, and frameworks including NIST 800-82, NCSC CAF, OG86 and the IET Code of Practice all set clear expectations for managing these risks.

For organisations operating cross-border or within the EU, compliance with NIS2 is now a baseline requirement — making cyber resilience not just a technical issue, but a regulatory imperative.

We provide a formalised cyber security solution designed to address these challenges, delivered as part of automation projects or as a standalone service.

iconsys delivers cyber resilience solutions across sectors including metals, pulp & paper, automotive, energy transition, marine & ports, transportation infrastructure, consumer goods, and construction materials.
