Find out how we can help secure your business,
with solutions tailored to your industry

Today not only IT, but manufacturing, oil refineries, electrical utilities, pharmaceutical etc. are automated, digitized and network-enabled. Therefore your risks and attack surface increase in the ICS world as well. Our goal is to secure all of these systems, with our custom tailored solutions designed for your individual needs.

SOLUTION

Our solution for all of
your OT needs, from start to end

Our table top service is a step-by-step method that demonstrates how a realistic attack may occur within your unique ICS environment based on your organization’s most concerning risks. Progression Systems services include collaboration between all stakeholders, including information technology (IT) and industrial control systems (ICS) security teams, to strengthen internal communication strategies and develop relationships.

Oil & Gas

Investments in digital transformation across the oil and gas industry, while producing significant operational benefits, have increased cyber risk and exposure: safety, unscheduled downtime, loss of intellectual property, and negative impact on corporate brand are most often cited. Investments in connected operations and remote access have necessarily opened industrial infrastructure to threat vectors that didn’t exist in the recent past. At the same time the frequency and sophistication of threat behaviors has been increasing as witnessed by the number of activity groups targeting industrial. Addressing these challenges requires ICS/OT cyber experts you can rely on to back up your teams and help you mature processes to respond to and manage threat behaviors efficiently.

Electric Utilities

The interconnectivity between IT and OT networks continues to grow — expanding attack surfaces within electric utilities’ industrial control systems (ICS) environments — and introducing new threats and compromises previously not visible to organizations so it’s critical for utilities to protect their networks from cyberthreats with cybersecurity solutions that provide complete visibility and control to help reduce downtime risk, lower costs, boost efficiency and streamline compliance with regulations like NERC CIP and the NIS Directive.

Metals & Mining

The automation of mine and fleet operations relies on various communication mechanisms that can present risks to the secure operation of your environment. This expanded attack surface makes it increasingly subject to the challenges of cyber risk, such as disruption of operations and threats to the safety of mine personnel. Our world-class Threat Intelligence team distills adversary behaviors, tactics, techniques, and procedures into regular reports, so you can stay one step ahead of threats they pose to your operations. Progression Systems’ professional cybersecurity services helps security and operations teams prepare for and respond to significant threats, no matter where you’re at in your journey. Our team will work with your staff on assessments, threat hunting, penetration testing, tabletop exercises, incident response, and training — either on-site or remotely.

Transportation

Transportation systems are critical to modern civilization, moving the raw materials, the finished goods, and the people that make modern life possible. The advancement and integrated use of operational technologies within the rail and maritime shipping industries has enhanced the efficiency and safety of transport systems, such as Positive Train Control (PTC), Ship Control (SC), or critical Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices. It has also increased the cyber attack surface exponentially. Progression Systems cyber security experts assists customers in understanding supply chain vulnerabilities, IT to OT convergence, and managing network asset inventory in order to systematically reduce cyber risk.

Building Automation Systems

With all of the benefits that smart building automation provides — reduced energy and operational costs, increased comfort, and productivity — the connected nature of these Building Management Systems (BMS) brings about new and unanticipated challenges. Whether you’re responsible for managing distribution centers, healthcare facilities or data centers, a determined adversary can infiltrate your building systems putting business performance and human safety at risk.

Pharmaceutical

Thousands of vulnerable industrial devices are connected to enterprise networks, providing an easy attack vector into critical operational technology (OT) systems, lab facilities, storage warehouses, and company data. Our solution allows security teams to apply protective cybersecurity controls to industrial devices and monitor them for threats.

Chemical

With the rise in digital transformation initiatives to improve the quality and efficiency of processes in their operations, chemical facilities simultaneously need to consider investing in cybersecurity to mitigate the increased risk from cyber threats. Progression Systems’ unique approach helps our customers protect the operational technology that helps run chemical production facilities and the valuable intellectual property regarding chemical formulas from a potential cyber attack.

Manufacturing

With the advent of Industry 4.0 and a steady increase in digital transformation initiatives to improve operations, manufacturers simultaneously need to invest in cybersecurity to mitigate risk. Progression Systems analyzes the entire spectrum of manufacturing production inputs from support systems, quality control systems, material handling technologies, and automation/control technologies.

Consumer Packaged Goods & Retail

The consumer packaged goods and retail (CPG&R) has undergone a metamorphosis in the past decade. The CPG&R industry must now deal with omnichannel sales and fickle customers as well as, the usual business pressures to grow revenue and margins. Digital technology assumes a crucial role in this new playing field and can help enhance customer experience and drive better business outcomes. Digital transformation, bolstered by the internet of things (IoT), cloud computing, big data and analytics, robotics, and artificial intelligence, is the most effective way for CPG&R companies to compete in an increasingly complex marketplace. The downside of these interoconnected technological is the increased vulnerability of data breaches and other cyberattacks. Creating and implementing an effective cybersecurity strategy are imparative. Progression Systems analyzes the entire spectrum of CPG&R industry inputs from support systems, quality control systems, material handling technologies, and automation/control technologies.

Community Water & Wastewater

Community Water & Wastewater systems provide a critical service for public health, life safety, and industry. As a foundational element of society, water systems must be vigilantly defended from cyber adversaries. Whether it is geographically dispersed distribution or collections systems, large treatment facilities, fire protection support, or pumping operations, disruption of system operations can have significant impacts on the communities and industries they serve. Recently, state-backed adversary groups have launched cyber attacks against vulnerable control systems at targeted water treatment facilities. Our Threat Intelligence team distills adversary behaviors, tactics, techniques, and procedures into regular reports, so you can stay one step ahead of threats they pose to your operations.
