When you need it

You are preparing for an incident and need to know what must be protected and restored first

Some assets in an ICS environment are more critical than others. Our crown jewel analysis identifies them and prioritises their protection.

We analyse business processes, systems and data to pinpoint the most vital assets, such as production equipment, control systems and intellectual property, and assess the potential impact of a breach on safety, revenue and reputation. By evaluating dependencies, risks and vulnerabilities we create a risk management strategy aligned with your objectives and budget.

You receive a prioritised list of crown jewels with recommendations for protecting them, and we help develop a comprehensive security plan of technical and non-technical controls.
