Master the SANS 5 Critical Controls

90% of industrial cyber attacks exploit basic security gaps. This execution playbook gives you the 30-day blueprint to lock down cyber-physical systems, pass global audits, and guarantee operational uptime, with zero plant downtime.

Includes: Step-by-Step Action Plan & Cross-Functional RACI Matrix

Implementing the SANS Framework

Most OT security frameworks fail because they try to force IT-style rules onto delicate machinery. Inside, you'll find the step-by-step SANS Action Plan to systematically harden your operations across all 5 controls, without taking a single device offline.

Satisfy Global Mandatory Standards:

  • CIRCIA (US)

  • NIS2 Directive (EU)

  • SOCI Act (Australia)

  • IEC 62443

The 5-Step Execution Blueprint

  • The Bottleneck: Standard IT playbooks crash OT environments.

  • The Fix: Consequence-focused playbooks built around process safety, not abrupt IT shutdowns.

  • The Bottleneck: Hidden dual-homed pathways and legacy VPN backdoors.

  • The Fix: Hardened OT DMZs and microsegmentation maps to isolate critical assets.

  • The Bottleneck: You can't protect physical devices you can't see.

  • The Fix: Non-intrusive, passive monitoring that profiles native industrial commands with zero risk of downtime.

  • The Bottleneck: Always-on VPNs are the #1 entry point for attackers.

  • The Fix: On-demand, least-privilege sessions with mandatory MFA and video session auditing.

  • The Bottleneck: Patching every OT vulnerability is operationally impossible.

  • The Fix: Target-patch only the 4% of weaponized vulnerabilities actively exploited in the wild.

Why Most OT Security Frameworks Fail (And Why This Won't)

Frameworks fail because IT teams try to force IT-style patching onto delicate operational technology. This playbook was designed by OT engineers who know that if a plant goes down for 5 minutes, heads roll. Every step inside prioritizes zero-downtime, non-intrusive execution.
