The client sought to gain deeper visibility and control across multiple industrial facilities. While each facility had its own systems and processes in place, there was a clear opportunity to enhance standardization, improve documentation, and align cybersecurity practices across the broader OT environment.
Key focus areas included:
- Establishing a consistent view of OT assets across all facilities
- Improving clarity around existing network architectures
- Identifying opportunities to strengthen and unify cybersecurity policies and controls
With this assessment, the client aimed to lay a stronger foundation for long-term resilience and scalable security management.
Asset Inventory and Lifecycle Analysis
Champion conducted a thorough inventory of OT assets across all sites, capturing:
- Detailed information such as make, model, and operational condition
- Lifecycle stage and support status
- Physical location and criticality
Network Topology Mapping
We mapped each site’s Process Control Network (PCN), delivering:
- Accurate, facility-specific network diagrams
- Visibility into asset interconnectivity and data flow
- Identification of segmentation gaps and vulnerability points
OT Cybersecurity Gap Assessment and Remediation Planning
Our team performed an in-depth gap analysis and developed a tailored remediation strategy. Key deliverables included:
- A prioritized list of findings ranked by criticality and operational risk
- High-level cost estimates for remediation at each facility
- A strategic roadmap aligned with NIST CSF and industry best practices
Champion provided a comprehensive view of the client’s multi-site OT environment, highlighting both areas of strength and opportunities for improvement. Results included:
- Detailed documentation of assets and network architecture
- Clear recommendations to formalize cybersecurity policies and procedures
- Actionable improvements to strengthen monitoring, analytics, and system defenses
We also mapped the client’s position within the NIST Cybersecurity Framework maturity model and delivered prioritized, cost-estimated recommendations. This enabled the client to confidently invest in the most impactful improvements and advance their OT cybersecurity program with clarity and direction.
