Understand where you stand and what your immediate next steps should be with the following scorecard.

High Risk

0-12

Low Visibility and High Exposure to Risk

Your responses indicate significant gaps in visibility, detection, and response across your IT and OT environments.

You may not have sufficient insight into how threats are entering your environment and moving laterally between IT and OT. You will not have insight into whether they are directly impacting physical operations.

In OT environments, this level of exposure can lead to operational disruptions and downtime. Delayed responses to critical incidents can impact the company’s reputation or attract legal proceedings.

Recommended Next Step

Organizations at this stage benefit from solutions that provide:

  • Unified visibility across IT and OT
  • Deep network-level detection
  • Faster, more accurate investigation

Medium Risk

13-19

Gaps in Monitoring and Threat Identification

Your organization has security measures in place, but key gaps remain, especially in correlating activity across IT and OT environments and detecting advanced threats. While some threats may be identified, others could go unnoticed or be detected too late to prevent impact.

Limited visibility across disconnected tools creates blind spots, allowing threats to slip through. At the same time, reliance on manual processes can slow down investigation and response, increasing operational risk.

Recommended Next Step

To reduce risk, organizations should focus on:

  • Improving visibility across OT environments
  • Correlating network, endpoint, and log data
  • Enhancing investigation and response capabilities

Low Risk

20-26

Well-Established Security Visibility and Control

Your responses indicate a mature approach to cybersecurity across both IT and OT environments. You likely have good visibility, detection, and response capabilities in place.

However, as cyber threats continue to evolve, especially in industrial environments, continuous improvement remains critical.

Recommended Next Step

To stay ahead:

  • Continuously validate your detection capabilities
  • Enhance investigation depth with richer data
  • Ensure your security strategy evolves with emerging OT threats

How Can NetWitness Help You Strengthen Your OT Security Posture?

NetWitness OT solution powered by Deep Inspect is designed to provide complete visibility across both IT and OT environments. By unifying insights across your entire infrastructure, your team can detect threats earlier, reduce blind spots, and respond with confidence without disrupting critical operations. 

With the right approach, you can move beyond limited visibility and reactive response to faster threat detection, a clearer view across IT and OT environments, and the ability to respond with confidence without disrupting critical operations. 

Scoring Details:

This assessment is based on a simple point system designed to evaluate your organization’s visibility, detection, and response capabilities across IT and OT environments. 

How scoring works 

Each question is scored on a scale from 0 to 2 points, based on your response: 

  • Yes = 2 points (capability is fully in place)
  • Partial = 1 point (capability exists but with gaps)
  • No = 0 points (capability is not in place)
  • Not sure = 0 points (lack of visibility or awareness indicates potential risk)
