How it Works

Securing Your Digital Future, Step by Step

  • 01

    Data Collection Layer

    Network Agents: OTShield captures traffic through SPAN ports or TAP devices in the OT network.


    Protocol Coverage: IEC-104, Modbus, DNP3, OPC-UA, S7Comm and more.


    Purpose: Provide full visibility of OT traffic and identify which devices communicate and how.

  • 02

    Analysis Layer

    This layer acts as the “brain” of OTShield.


    Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) Engine

    - Parses traffic at the protocol level.

    - Detects unauthorized commands, protocol anomalies, and injection attempts.


    AI/ML Anomaly Detection

    - Learns the normal behavior of devices (e.g., which RTU sends data at what time, which PLC executes which commands).

    - Flags behavioral anomalies such as zero-day exploits or false data injection.


    Exploit Detection Modules

    - Hybrid approach: signature-based IDS + ML-driven behavioral analysis.

    - Detects RDP brute force, privilege escalation, and Metasploit-based OT exploits.

  • 03

    Deception Layer

    Decoy Cluster

    -Mimics real SCADA assets such as fake HMIs and PLCs.


    Dynamic Response Engine

    - Redirects attackers into decoys.

    - Records the attacker’s Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs).


    Threat Intelligence Generation

    - Collected data is transformed into actionable threat intelligence for both internal teams and global intel feeds.

  • 04

    Management & Reporting Layer

    Central Dashboard

    - Displays detected anomalies, exploits, and attack attempts in real time.

    - Maps detections against the MITRE ATT&CK for ICS matrix.


    Compliance & Reporting

    - Provides reports aligned with NIS2, IEC 62443 and other regulations.

    - Includes risk scoring and security posture visualization.


    API Integrations

    - Sends data to SIEM, SOAR, and SOC platforms.

    - Supports REST APIs for security orchestration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick Answers to Your Cyber Security Concerns

img

OTShield is a cybersecurity platform built to protect Operational Technology (OT) and Critical Infrastructure networks. It combines deep packet inspection (DPI), AI-driven anomaly detection, and deception technology to deliver proactive and resilient defence for industries like energy, manufacturing, and transportation.

Critical infrastructure operators face rising cyber threats but lack OT-specific tools that balance security and operational continuity. Existing solutions are either too IT-focused or too rigid. OTShield provides OT-native security without disruption, helping operators comply with regulations such as NIS2 and IEC 62443 while reducing cyber risk.

Deception-first strategy: Unlike our competitors, OTShield actively engages attackers via decoys to collect threat intelligence.


AI-driven behavioral analysis: Goes beyond signature-based detection, scaling with new and unknown threats.


Lightweight deployment: Faster time-to-value and non-intrusive integration with existing systems.


Compliance built-in: Directly maps to regulatory frameworks, reducing audit and reporting costs.

Protocol-aware DPI identifies malicious or malformed traffic


AI behavioral analysis detects abnormal communication patterns


Deception decoys lure attackers and provide early warning


MITRE ATT&CK mapping helps classify threats and attack techniques

OTShield includes a compliance framework that:

- Generates detailed security reports for audits

- Maps incidents to NIS2 and IEC 62443 requirements

- Helps operators demonstrate compliance to regulators with minimal effort

You can choose the deployment that fits your needs:

- On-Premise: Virtual or hardware appliance inside the OT network

- Cloud-assisted: With analytics and updates from OTShield’s backend

- Hybrid: Local detection combined with centralized monitoring

Critical Infrastructure Operators

OTShield integrates seamlessly with SIEM and SOC platforms (Splunk, QRadar, Elastic, etc.) through APIs, so all threat data and alerts flow into your existing monitoring environment.

About
Built by SCADA Engineers.
Trusted by the World’s Critical Industries.
Our Story

From SCADA Engineering to Deception-First Defence

OTShield was born on the front line of SCADA engineering. As Industry 4.0 and Industrial IoT pulled critical infrastructure online, we watched plants modernise faster than their defences could keep up. Attackers gained new entry points every year, and the old playbook of patching and perimeter detection couldn't catch what was already inside.

Our answer is deception-first defence. We combine deep visibility across the internet, IT and OT layers with active deception techniques that lure attackers into traps, exposing their tactics, techniques and procedures before any real disruption happens. Machine learning turns those signals into automated detection and response, around the clock.

Built by SCADA engineers and trusted by the world's critical industries, OTShield is how operations stay resilient when the threat landscape never stops shifting.

Our Mission

To protect critical infrastructures by delivering cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions that combine attacker deception, deep SCADA expertise and AI-driven anomaly detection, ensuring industrial operations remain resilient, secure and uninterrupted.

Our Vision

To become the global leader in deception-first OT security, redefining how industries defend against cyber threats and setting the new standard for safeguarding the digital backbone of society.
