Network Architecture Review

Over the last 10 years cities more and more cities have connected the water process and wastewater processes into centralized SCADA systems. While these systems have provided a lot of value for each city. They have created unknown risk where remote bad actors can tamper with the network. This could be with a remote access solution or misconfigurations in the firewalls, or in using standard cellular connectivity for your field sites. Attackers often find and use hidden vulnerabilities to move through your systems. Red Trident’s network security assessment looks at your network as a whole, mapping out every path an attacker could take.

We combine these findings with a clear threat model, so you know where to add security controls that stop attacks in the most effective places. This gives you a simple, practical plan to lower your risk and protect your operations.

OT Risk Assessment

Red Trident offers one of the most effective and affordable risk assessment tools available in OT Cybersecurity. Our solution helps us quickly review your business processes and clearly measure risk within your environment.

You will receive an easy-to-read report showing the most likely threats you face, how those threats could impact your business, and how your current security controls protect you. We also highlight the dollar value of each control, so you can see how your investment directly lowers your risk. This gives you clear, actionable insights—and helps your team, including your CFO, understand exactly how your security spending is making a difference.

With Red Trident, you get security controls that truly fit your needs.
