A Proven Foundation for OT Security

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) is a structured approach that enables organizations to build strong, adaptive defenses against cyber threats. It consists of five core functions, each designed to help secure critical infrastructure:

  • Identify: Understand and manage cybersecurity risks across assets, people, and systems.
  • Protect: Implement safeguards to protect OT systems from potential threats.
  • Detect: Quickly recognize and identify cybersecurity events as they occur.
  • Respond: Take action to contain and mitigate the effects of cybersecurity incidents.
  • Recover: Restore services and systems to minimize operational impact.

By following this risk-based framework, organizations gain flexibility to adapt their security measures to evolving threats. The NIST CSF is recognized as a best practice across industries for its ability to help organizations of all sizes proactively secure their environments.

How Rockwell Uses NIST CSF

At Rockwell Automation, we integrate the NIST Cybersecurity Framework into every level of our OT security solutions. Here’s how we address each function to create resilient, adaptable security environments:

Identify

Our Security Posture Surveys and asset discovery tools help map out all OT assets, giving you a clear understanding of your infrastructure and potential risks.

Protect

Rockwell’s network design, firewall management, and endpoint protection services provide safeguards to keep critical systems secure and operational.

Detect

Using threat detection services and real-time monitoring, we detect potential threats before they escalate. Our partnership with industry leaders like Claroty and Dragos enhances our ability to identify risks across your network.

Respond

We offer comprehensive response services, including incident response playbooks and managed SOC (Security Operations Center) support to quickly contain and mitigate incidents.

Recover

Our recovery solutions focus on restoring operations with minimal disruption, using backup management and system restoration services to keep your operations productive.

By aligning our products, services, and expertise with the NIST framework, Rockwell provides a holistic approach to OT security, helping you build resilience across every phase of cybersecurity.

Benefits of a NIST-Aligned Approach

A NIST-aligned OT security framework offers powerful benefits that enhance resilience, improve response capabilities, and ensure compliance.

Enhanced Risk Management

Proactively identify and mitigate vulnerabilities to keep your operations secure.

Improved Incident Response

Minimize downtime with prepared, step-by-step response procedures.

Regulatory Compliance

Demonstrate adherence to industry standards, building trust and reducing compliance risks.

Continuous Improvement

Establish a framework for ongoing assessment and adaptation to evolving threats.
