Symtek Electrical - Comprehensive Security and Surveillance Solutions

Symtek Electrical, in collaboration with RME Solutions Technology and top vendors, offers consulting and robust security and surveillance solutions. We deploy industry-leading technologies suitable for permanent installations in plants, offices, and warehouses, as well as specialized standalone systems for remote monitoring.

Overview

Protecting Industrial Control Systems (ICS) from cyber threats is a top priority. However, the complexity of underlying networks, legacy technologies, and poor security procedures can make it challenging to know where to start. For over 15 years, Cisco has been helping industrial organizations digitize their operations by developing a market-leading networking portfolio that is purpose-built for industrial use cases.

Benefits

Our services provide a range of benefits:

• Full visibility into connected assets, vulnerabilities, and activities
• Prioritize actions by identifying assets that have the highest cyber risks
• Control access to the OT network by deploying an industrial DMZ
• Protect operations by implementing ISA/IEC62443 zones and conduits
• Enforce micro-segmentation policies that do not interfere with your OT processes
• Investigate incidents by leveraging intelligence from all your IT security tools
• Remediate threats with workflows orchestrating tasks across your security technologies

How it Works

We follow a phased approach to deploying industrial security successfully:

1. Build a security foundation: A solid and flexible network architecture is a key success criterion for robust and certified security. The first step in the journey to securing your industrial network is to restrict logical access to the OT network.
2. Gain visibility and device posture: After defining and securing the network perimeter, the second stage of our security journey is to apply security within the industrial network.
3. Segment the network into smaller trust zones: ISA/IEC 62443 recommends that systems be separated into groups called “zones” that will be able to communicate with each other through communication channels called “conduits”.
4. Develop an incident investigation and response plan: The final consideration in the journey to securing your industrial network is the ability to detect and respond to potential threats.

The Cisco Advantage

For more than 15 years, Cisco has been helping industrial organizations around the globe to digitize their operations, working with manufacturers, power and water utilities, energy companies, mines, ports, railways, roadways, and more. Today, Cisco offers a market-leading portfolio of industrial networking equipment plus a comprehensive suite of cybersecurity products, integrated tightly together with a deep understanding of OT requirements.
