Case study ยท Critical infrastructure
Transitioning critical OT infrastructure without losing operational integration
Industrial OT connectivity at a remote UK processing facility was transitioned with controlled testing, and the agreed application tests were closed.
The challenge
The client had to move industrial OT connectivity at a remote UK processing facility without losing the operational integration the site depends on.
The complexity
- A live industrial operation
- Connectivity that other systems depended on
- Network boundaries and communications
- Applications that had to be proven before the change was accepted
Our approach
Design
Set the cutover plan and the test set that had to pass.
Deliver
Coordinate the operational cutover and the controlled testing.
Enable
Put the agreed connectivity in place for the new operating state.
The result
- 100% OT connectivity tests successful
- 35/35 application tests completed
- 0 outstanding application tests
The agreed tests were closed, and the operational integration was kept through the cutover.
