Industrial environments face unique cybersecurity challenges. Legacy systems, safety requirements, operational continuity, and limited visibility can make investigations far more complex than traditional IT incidents. This white paper explores a practical OT incident response model, highlights the importance of containment before eradication, and explains how organizations can use network, endpoint, and log visibility to investigate threats without disrupting operations.
