Controlled Adversary Simulations That Respect Safety and Continuity.

OT Red Teaming

OT environments power production — but testing them is inherently risky if done without safeguards. DEFION’s OT Red Teaming delivers controlled, safety-first simulations of targeted attacks. Executives gain insight into real adversary tactics without jeopardizing uptime, equipment, or safety.

How OT Red Teaming Works

High-level process

Scoping & safety planning: Agree on targets, non-invasive rules-of-engagement, and escalation paths with OT engineers and leadership.
Reconnaissance & hybrid attack simulations: Blend digital exploitation, supply-chain and social engineering techniques tailored to PLCs, SCADA, HMIs, and networked controllers.
Detection & response testing: Trigger and observe IT/OT detection, playbooks, and cross-team coordination under realistic pressure.
Impact assessment & remediation roadmap: Quantify operational impact, prioritize fixes by business risk, and validate controls with follow-up verification.

**Key Benefits **

Demonstrates real operational impact (downtime, safety, production loss) to inform board-level risk decisions.
Validates detection and incident response between IT and OT teams in high-pressure scenarios.
Identifies weak links across physical, digital, and human domains — enabling prioritized, cost-effective remediation.
Delivers an executive summary and a technical remediation plan with measurable KPIs for follow-up.
